From classical to quantum nonlinear optics in integrated photonic structures

Marco Liscidini, L. G. Helt, John E. Sipe

We present a simple and flexible method for a rigorous description of nonlinear phenomena in photonic systems, well suited to model integrated and photonic crystal structures. We also show that the results of classical experiments allow for an accurate prediction of quantum correlated photon-pair generation efficiencies, opening a path to move from classical to quantum nonlinear optics in integrated photonic structures.

Strong Nonlinear Coupling due to Induced Photon Interaction on a Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$ Chip

Sven Ramelow, Alessandro Farsi, Z. Vernon +6 more

Second-order optical processes lead to a host of applications in classical and quantum optics. With the enhancement of parametric interactions that arise due to light confinement, on-chip implementations promise very-large-scale photonic integration. But as yet there is no route to a device that acts at the single photon level. Here we exploit the $χ^{(3)}$ nonlinear response of a Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$ microring resonator to induce a large effective $χ^{(2)}$. Effective second-order upconversion (ESUP) of a seed to an idler can be achieved with 74,000 %/W efficiency, indicating that single photon nonlinearity is within reach of current technology. Moreover, we show a nonlinear coupling rate of seed and idler larger than the energy dissipation rate in the resonator, indicating a strong coupling regime. Consequently we observe a Rabi-like splitting, for which we provide a detailed theoretical description. This yields new insight into the dynamics of ultrastrong effective nonlinear interactions in microresonators, and access to novel phenomena and applications in classical and quantum nonlinear optics.

Fundamental principles and applications of nonlinear optical phenomena in classical and quantum electrodynamics

Masud Mansuripur

Nonlinear optical phenomena play important roles in the vast emerging fields of micro- and nanotechnology. This paper describes the general characteristics of nonlinear optical materials and systems, with a focus on parametric amplification, frequency-doubling with pump depletion, quantum noise accompanying attenuation and amplification of light beams, and parametric fluorescence.

Strong Nonlinear Coupling due to Induced Photon Interaction on a Si3_{3}3​N4_{4}4​ Chip
Second-order optical processes lead to a host of applications in classical and quantum optics. With the enhancement of parametric interactions that arise due to light confinement, on-chip implementations promise very-large-scale photonic integration. But as yet there is no route to a device that acts at the single photon level. Here we exploit the χ(3)χ^{(3)}χ(3) nonlinear response of a Si3_{3}3​N4_{4}4​ microring resonator to induce a large effective χ(2)χ^{(2)}χ(2). Effective second-order upconversion (ESUP) of a seed to an idler can be achieved with 74,000 %/W efficiency, indicating that single photon nonlinearity is within reach of current technology. Moreover, we show a nonlinear coupling rate of seed and idler larger than the energy dissipation rate in the resonator, indicating a strong coupling regime.
