Low Loss Fiber-Coupled Volumetric Interconnects Fabricated via Direct Laser Writing

Background Introduction Photon integrated circuits (PICs) are significant for achieving high-speed data transmission. However, traditional photon integrated circuits, which only use a single plane or a limited number of stacked planes, are restricted in optical signal routing. Additionally, coupling losses need to be as low as possible for practica...

Observation of Interband Kelly Sidebands in Coupled-Ring Soliton Microcombs

Observation of Inter-Band Kelly Sidebands in Coupled Ring Comb Microcombs Background Introduction Kelly Sidebands (KSS) are special dispersive waves that appear in mode-locked systems and have been extensively studied in fiber lasers. However, due to the shorter path lengths of integrated photonics microresonators, their generation in integrated mi...
