QPL Presentations at the 2023 CLEO Conference!

We're excited to be back at CLEO 2023 with three talks from our group by Sahil, Kamyar, and Trevor

May 5, 2023

Some great results coming out of our group will be presented by Sahil, Kamyar, and Trevor on integrated quantum photonics and related applications. We're looking forward to attend the many other interesting talks throughout the week, especially in the FS3: Quantum Photonics Sessions!

 

FW3J.2 (1:15-1:30PM Wednesday, May 10)

Cavity Optomechanics With WSe2 Single Photon Emitters

Presenter: Sahil Patel, UC Santa Barbara, United States

We demonstrate surface acoustic wave cavity optomechanics with WSe2 single-photon emitters with modulated resonance linewidths indicative of deformation potential coupling. We observe dynamic fine-structure mixing that may enable entangled-photon pair generation from 2D materials.

FTh1A.3 (8:45-9:00AM Thursday, May 11)

Cavity-Enhanced 2D Quantum Emitters Deterministically Integrated With Silicon Nitride Microresonators

Presenter: Kamyar Parto, UC Santa Barbara, United States

A new platform for position and polarization aligned 2D single-photon emitter integration within background-free silicon-nitride microring resonator is presented. Emitters achieve a cavity-enhanced coupling efficiency of 46±4%, exceeding previous demonstration by over an order-of-magnitude.

FF1L.1 (8:00-8:15AM, Friday, May 12)

Integrated Tunable Bell State Generator and Hong-Ou-Mandel Experiment on AlGaAsOI

Presenter: Trevor Steiner, University of California, United States

We report an AlGaAsOI quantum photonic circuit with multiple pair sources and tunable interferometers. We demonstrate Hong-Ou-Mandel interference between two microring resonators and a tunable Bell state generator producing Ψ+ and Φ- bi-photon entangled states.
