Article Abstract

Whispering-gallery-mode crystalline resonators currently maintain the best quality factor () record; however, compact on-chip packaging is still a challenge, although various coupling architectures have been developed. Here, a chemical etching method is proposed to fabricate a miniaturized tapered fiber waveguide on silicon substrate. The Marangoni effect is implemented to reduce the surface roughness of the cone region. The optical loss of 0.1 dB/mm is obtained, and the of the on-chip crystalline resonator exceeds 10. Additionally, thermoelectric cooler (TEC) is implanted in the package to actively customize the temperature, and the temperature response of 18 pm/°C is consistent with the theoretical calculation.

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.

Controlling the symmetry of optical and mechanical waves is pivotal to their full exploitation in technological applications and topology-linked fundamental physics experiments. Leveraging on the control of orbital angular momentum, we introduce here a device forming acoustic vortices which can impart an orbital angular momentum modulation at super-high-frequency on reflected light beams. Originated by shape-engineering of a single-contact bulk acoustic wave resonator, acoustic vortices are generated in a wide band of frequencies around 4 GHz with topological charge ranging from 1 to beyond 13 tunable by the device geometry and/or excitation frequency.

The development of compact, CMOS-compatible gas sensors is critical for advancing real-time environmental monitoring and industrial diagnostics. In this study, we present a detailed numerical investigation of integrated photonic waveguide designs-such as ridge and slot-optimized for overtone-based gas spectroscopy in the near-infrared range. By evaluating both the evanescent-field confinement and curvature-induced losses across multiple silicon-on-insulator platforms, we identify optimal geometries that maximize light-analyte interactions while minimizing bending attenuation.
