Hybrid Low Loss Photonic Integrated Circuits: From Chipscale Frequency Combs, Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers to Cryogenic Interconnects
Recent advances in attaining ultra low loss highly confining silicon nitride waveguides with loss in the dB-meter range and their heterogeneous integration with MEMS and Lithium Niobate have opened up novel applications that benefit not only from scalable manufacturing, compact form factor and low power, but crucially have now reached a point where the performance is on par and even exceeding that of legacy optical systems. I will describe a range of novel advances, including photonic integrated circuit based frequency agile lasers with fiber laser phase noise, parametric traveling wave amplifiers, Erbium amplifiers on chip, as well as soliton frequency combs, with applications from coherent communications and LiDAR to cryogenic quantum interconnects.
About the Speaker
Tobias J. Kippenberg is Full Professor in the Institute of Physics and Electrical Engineering at EPFL in Switzerland since 2013 and joined EPFL in 2008 as Tenure Track Assistant Professor. Prior to EPFL he was Independent Max Planck Junior Research group leader at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching, Germany. While at the MPQ he demonstrated radiation pressure cooling of optical micro-resonators and developed techniques with which mechanical oscillators can be cooled, measured and manipulated in the quantum regime — now part of the research field of Cavity Quantum Optomechanics. Moreover, his group discovered the generation of optical frequency combs using high Q micro-resonators, a principle known now as micro-combs or Kerr combs. This discovery unlocked record data transmission rate, which led to the development of new concepts in telecommunications in collaborations with industry. For his early contributions in these two research fields, he was recipient of the EFTF Award for Young Scientists (2011), The Hemholtz Prize in Metrology (2009), the EPS Fresnel Prize (2009), ICO Award (2014), Swiss Latsis Prize (2015), the Wilhelmy Klung Research Prize in Physics (2015), the 2018 ZEISS Research Award and the R. Wood Award (2021). Moreover, he is first-prize recipient of the "8th European Union Contest for Young Scientists" in 1996 and is listed in the Highly Cited Researchers List of 1% most cited physicists, 2014 – 2021. He is co-founder of the startup LIGENTEC SA, an integrated photonics foundry; DEEPLIGHT SA, a supplier of advanced laser sources; and LUXTELLIGENCE SA, a thin-film lithium niobate foundry.
