    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to photonic integrated circuits with an on-chip optical isolator. A photonic transmitter chip may include a laser and an on-chip isolator optically coupled with the laser that includes an optical waveguide having a section coupled with a magneto-optic liquid phase epitaxy grown garnet film. In some embodiments, a cladding may be coupled with the garnet film, the on-chip isolator may be arranged in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer configuration, the waveguide may include one or more polarization rotators, and/or the garnet film may be formed of a material from a rare-earth garnet family. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) with an on-chip optical isolator. The PIC may comprise a laser, a waveguide coupled with the laser, and a closed loop resonator coupled to the laser through the waveguide. A magneto-optical (MO) layer is over and in contact with the waveguide and the closed loop resonator. The closed loop resonator may comprise a first polarization rotator (PR) and a second PR. A light from the laser in transverse electric (TE) mode through the waveguide is rotated in the first PR to a light in transverse magnetic (TM) mode, and the light in TM mode is rotated in the second PR to light in TE mode. The isolator may further comprise a micro-heater over or along a side of the waveguide and separated from the closed loop resonator; and a feedback control loop connected to the closed loop resonator and the micro-heater.
