Triply-resonant sum frequency conversion with gallium phosphide ring resonators.

We demonstrate quasi-phase matched, triply-resonant sum frequency conversion in 10.6-µm-diameter integrated gallium phosphide ring resonators. A small-signal, waveguide-to-waveguide power conversion efficiency of 8 ± 1.

Capacitively and Inductively Coupled Excitons in Bilayer MoS_{2}.

The coupling of intralayer A and B excitons and interlayer excitons (IE) is studied in a two-dimensional semiconductor, homobilayer MoS_{2}. It is shown that the measured optical susceptibility reveals both the magnitude and the phase of the coupling constants. The IE and B excitons couple via a 0-phase (capacitive) coupling; the IE and A excitons couple via a π-phase (inductive) coupling.

Precise electron beam-based target-wavelength trimming for frequency conversion in integrated photonic resonators.

We demonstrate post-fabrication target-wavelength trimming with a gallium phosphide on a silicon nitride integrated photonic platform using controlled electron-beam exposure of hydrogen silsesquioxane cladding. A linear relationship between the electron-beam exposure dose and resonant wavelength red-shift enables deterministic, individual trimming of multiple devices on the same chip to within 30 pm of a single target wavelength. Second harmonic generation from telecom to near infrared at a target wavelength is shown in multiple devices with quality factors on the order of 10.

Interlayer exciton mediated second harmonic generation in bilayer MoS.

Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a non-linear optical process, where two photons coherently combine into one photon of twice their energy. Efficient SHG occurs for crystals with broken inversion symmetry, such as transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers. Here we show tuning of non-linear optical processes in an inversion symmetric crystal.

Controlling interlayer excitons in MoS layers grown by chemical vapor deposition.

Combining MoS monolayers to form multilayers allows to access new functionalities. Deterministic assembly of large area van der Waals structures requires concrete indicators of successful interlayer coupling in bilayers grown by chemical vapor deposition. In this work, we examine the correlation between the stacking order and the interlayer coupling of valence states in both as-grown MoS homobilayer samples and in artificially stacked bilayers from monolayers, all grown by chemical vapor deposition.
