AbstractHeterogeneous and monolithic integration of the versatile low-loss silicon nitride platform with low-temperature materials such as silicon electronics and photonics, III–V compound semiconductors, lithium niobate, organics, and glasses has been inhibited by the need for high-temperature annealing as well as the need for different process flows for thin and thick waveguides.

AbstractCold atoms are important for precision atomic applications including timekeeping and sensing. The 3D magneto-optical trap (3D-MOT), used to produce cold atoms, will benefit from photonic integration to improve reliability and reduce size, weight, and cost. These traps require the delivery of multiple, large area, collimated laser beams to an atomic vacuum cell. Yet, to date, beam delivery using an integrated waveguide approach has remained elusive.

AbstractPhotonic molecules can realize complex optical energy modes thatsimulate states of matter and have application to quantum, linear, andnonlinear optical systems. To achieve their full potential, it iscritical to scale the photonic molecule energy state complexity andprovide flexible, controllable, stable, high-resolution energy stateengineering with low power tuning mechanisms.
