  • Low Power CW Nonlinear Optics in Silica Glass Photonic Integrated Circuit
    A Review of New CMOS Material Platforms for Integrated Nonlinear Optics Roberto Morandotti INRS-EMT, 1650 Boulevard Lionel Boulet, Varennes, Québec, Canada, J3X 1S2 David J. Moss School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (SECE) RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia 3001 Alexander L. Gaeta School of Applied and Engineering Physics, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA Michal Lipson School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA Nonlinear photonic chips have enabled the generation and processing of signals using only light, with performance far superior to that possible electronically - particularly with respect to speed. Although silicon-on-insulator has been the leading platform for nonlinear optics, its high two-photon absorption at telecommunications wavelengths poses a fundamental limitation. We review recent progress in non-silicon CMOS-compatible platforms for nonlinear optics, with a focus on Si3N4 and Hydex. These material systems have opened up many new capabilities such as on-chip optical frequency comb generation and ultrafast optical pulse generation and measurement. This review highlights their potential impact as well as the challenges to achieving practical solutions for many key applications. 1 Introduction All-optical signal generation and processing [1,2] have been highly successful at enabling a vast array of capabilities, such as switching and de-multiplexing of signals at unprecedented speeds [3,4], parametric gain [5] on a chip, Raman lasing [6], wavelength conversion [7], optical logic [8], all-optical regeneration [9,10], radio-frequency (RF) spectrometry at THz speeds [11,12], as well as entirely new functions such as ultra-short pulse measurement [13,14] and generation [15] on a chip, optical temporal cloaking [16], and many others.

RF and microwave photonic based signal processors of integral order using Kerr integrated micro-combs David J. Moss Optical Sciences Centre, Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn, VIC 3122, Australia. Abstract Soliton crystal micro-combs are powerful tools as sources of multiple wavelength channels for radio frequency (RF) signal processing. They offer a compact device footprint, large numbers of wavelengths, very high versatility, and wide Nyquist bandwidths. Here, we demonstrate integral order RF signal processing functions based on a soliton crystal micro-comb, including a Hilbert transformer and first- to third-order differentiators. We compare and contrast results achieved and the tradeoffs involved with varying comb spacing, tap design methods, as well as shaping methods. Keywords: RF photonics, Optical resonators passive devices and so can achieve very low power 1.

    Nonlinear Pattern Formation in a Multilayer Photonic Platform by Antoine Bois A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto © Copyright 2017 by Antoine Bois Abstract Nonlinear Pattern Formation in a Multilayer Photonic Platform Antoine Bois Master of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto 2017 An optical resonator containing a Kerr nonlinearity and supporting two coupled modes with the same polarization is investigated to reveal stable localized solutions beyond the usual formation mechanism involving a single mode. Paired breather dissipative Kerr solitons, in addition to temporally stable patterns, are demonstrated via numerical simulations that accounts for differential group delay and un- equal second-order dispersions (in both magnitudes and signs). The soliton dynamics are explored from the viewpoint of modulational instability and the spatial dynamics. These results are put within the broader context of multilayer photonic platforms and address considerations relating to dispersion engi- neering, external coupling, and avoided crossing phenomena. Preliminary waveguide measurements show the feasibility of implementing such a structure for the stable generation of coherent optical frequency combs. ii Acknowledgements I extend my deepest gratitude toward my advisor, Prof. Joyce Poon, as well as my colleagues of the Micro/NanoPhotonics Lab, for helpful discussions in all matters.
