    Abstract: An optical gate device may have one or more optical cavities. The optical cavity may have an embedded optically-active material providing strong light-matter coupling. A pump input allows application to of a pulsed optical pump beam the optically-active material. The pump beam is absorbed by the optically active material to form an exciton-polariton condensate which emits light. The optical gate device may have an input waveguide to input a seed signal to the optical cavity. The optical gate device may include an output waveguide to output of an optical signal at a wavelength corresponding to a resonant mode of a the cavity. The device may operate in a manner such that, when the pump beam is applied to the pump input, an optical output signal is selectively provided in the output waveguide, via the input of the a seed signal and light emitted by the exciton-polariton condensate.

    Abstract: A photon source includes a bus waveguide, a photon source pump laser coupled to the bus waveguide and a plurality of optical resonators coupled to the bus waveguide. Each optical resonator of the plurality of optical resonators has a respective resonance line width and a respective resonance frequency, wherein a bandwidth of the resonant center frequencies of the plurality of optical resonators is greater than a bandwidth of the photon source pump laser. The bus waveguide produces photons in response to receiving laser pulses from the pump laser.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for a low-parasitic silicon high-speed phase modulator are disclosed and may include fabricating an optical phase modulator that comprises a PN junction waveguide formed in a silicon layer, wherein the silicon layer may be on an oxide layer and the oxide layer may be on a silicon substrate. The PN junction waveguide may have p-doped and n-doped regions on opposite sides along a length of the PN junction waveguide, and portions of the p-doped and n-doped regions may be removed. Contacts may be formed on remaining portions of the p-doped and n-doped regions. Portions of the p-doped and n-doped regions may be removed symmetrically about the PN junction waveguide. Portions of the p-doped and n-doped regions may be removed in a staggered fashion along the length of the PN junction waveguide. Etch transition features may be removed along the p-doped and n-doped regions.

    Abstract: The present subject matter includes apparatus and techniques that can be used to reduce losses in systems that perform steering of a light beam. Such steering can be performed in a non-mechanical manner, such as using an electrically-controlled optical structure (e.g., an electro-optical structure). For example, a waveguide can be used to adjust an angle of a light beam (e.g., steer the light beam). The waveguide can include a core, a cladding including an electro-optic material, and electrodes defining an arrangement that, when selectively energized, adjusts an index of refraction of the electro-optic material. In particular, electrode arrangements as described herein can be used to reduce losses, such as losses that would occur due to diffraction.
