Article Abstract

We demonstrated an integrated high-Q cascaded Fabry-Perot (FP) resonator on lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) implemented by multi-Sagnac loop reflectors, which was fabricated by femtosecond laser photolithography-assisted chemo-mechanical polishing (CMP). Compared with the resonator that comprised only two Sagnac loop reflectors (SLRs), there is a significant Q factor enhancement in the cascaded resonator formed by multi-SLRs. The loaded Q factor of the cascaded resonator was measured to be 1.16 × 10, a five-fold improvement compared to the state of the art on the same material platform.

We present low-loss (<1.5) and power-efficient Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) on thin-film lithium niobate. To accurately measure small MZI losses, we develop a self-calibrated method using tunable Sagnac loop reflectors (SLRs) to build cavities.

The Fabry-Pérot interferometer, a fundamental component in optoelectronic systems, offers interesting applications such as sensors, lasers, and filters. In this work, we show a tunable Fabry-Pérot cavity consisting of tunable Sagnac loop reflectors (SLRs) and phase shifters based on electrostatic microelectromechanical (MEMS) actuator. The fabrication process of the device is compatible with the standard wafer-level silicon photonics fabrication processes.

Beyond 5G networks would require newer technologies to deliver a smarter network. In accordance with these requirements, an electronically steerable compact antenna system capable of beam-switching in the azimuth plane is proposed. The design uses a monopole antenna as the main radiator surrounded by metasurface-based electronically reconfigurable reflector elements designed for the sub-6GHz range.
