Article Abstract
With the development of photonic integrated circuits and optical information processing on thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN), the realization of the TFLN-based polarization device is becoming more and more crucial. Here, we demonstrate a polarization modulator on the TFLN platform without polarization diversity. Without polarization manipulation elements, the device only composes a phase modulator and a two-dimensional grating coupler. The structure features small footprint and high fabrication tolerance. The device holds promise for polarization encoding telecommunication.

The high extinction ratio mode (de)multiplexer is a pivotal component in high capacity mode-division multiplexing data communication and nascent on-chip intermodal acousto-optic modulators. Up to now, high performance on-chip mode (de)multiplexers are still lacking for integrated AOMs on the lithium niobate-on-insulator platform. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate an innovative scheme to achieve high extinction ratio signal routing for acousto-optic modulation, by leveraging a two-mode (de)multiplexer in conjunction with a high- racetrack microring resonator.

The surge in artificial intelligence applications calls for scalable, high-speed, and low-energy computation methods. Computing with photons is promising due to the intrinsic parallelism, high bandwidth, and low latency of photons. However, current photonic computing architectures are limited by the speed and energy consumption associated with electronic-to-optical data transfer, i.

The forthcoming sixth-generation and beyond wireless networks are poised to operate across an expansive frequency range-from microwave, millimetre wave to terahertz bands-to support ubiquitous connectivity in diverse application scenarios. This necessitates a one-size-fits-all hardware solution that can be adaptively reconfigured within this wide spectrum to support full-band coverage and dynamic spectrum management. However, existing electrical or photonic-assisted solutions face a lot of challenges in meeting this demand because of the limited bandwidths of the devices and the intrinsically rigid nature of system architectures.

Electro-optic modulators have become an essential component of communication and information infrastructure. However, challenges to stable DC operation result in a requirement for thermal biasing of modulators, which can require high powers and be prohibitive to the deployment of modulators for low-temperature applications. Here, we present stable DC operation of a thin-film lithium niobate modulator at liquid nitrogen accessible temperatures, providing a low-cost alternative to thermal tuning demands and demonstrating accessibility for low-temperature applications.
