About The Lab
In the Quantum Photonics Lab, we develop integrated photonic technologies for quantum information science, communications, computing, and sensing. Our research spans heterogeneous photonic integration, nonlinear and quantum photonics, engineered quantum emitters, and cryogenic photonic systems, with an emphasis on moving beyond individual devices toward scalable, tightly integrated architectures. We combine ultralow-loss SiN photonic circuits with III-V semiconductors, nonlinear and electro-optic materials, quantum emitters, magneto-optic materials, photodetectors, and electronic and mechanical functionality to realize new capabilities for generating, manipulating, transmitting, and detecting quantum states of light. Across these efforts, we integrate device modeling, nanofabrication, and precision optical and electrical measurements spanning visible to telecommunication wavelengths, millikelvin to ambient temperatures, and DC to RF frequencies. Our goal is to establish scalable photonic platforms that enable deterministic quantum light sources, integrated squeezed-light and entanglement sources, quantum interconnects and networks, photonic-electronic interfaces, and ultrasensitive quantum sensors.
