Visible wavelength external cavity diode lasers in photonic integrated circuits for atomic technologies
Atoms can be controlled by manipulating their internal states using agile, quiet and reliable laser sources. An external-cavity diode laser (ECDL) is a crucial enabling technology to realize such laser sources since it allows for the narrowing of the linewidth of a laser diode and precise tuning of the laser frequency. This project aims to […]

Integrated external cavity lasers will enhance quantum atomic technologies
Photonic integrated circuits could reduce laser systems to chip-scale devices. Cold atoms provide a powerful platform for the implementation of technological applications in quantum computing, sensing and communication. Electronic transitions in these atoms have very precise and particular wavelengths. Lasers that can be tuned to these exact wavelengths are required to manipulate the internal […]

Quantum Material Multilayer Photonic Devices and Network
Summary Realizing highly integrated quantum photonic devices on a chip can enable new opportunities for photonic quantum computation. In this project, we explore heterostructures of stacked two-dimensional (2D) materials, such transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) or graphene, combined with optical microcavities as a platform for such devices. 2D materials are extremely thin and flexible, and have […]
