Their traditional fabrication techniques, such as etching, are often complex, require long development cycles, and are resource inefficient in case of fabrication imperfections or failures. The two-photon polymerization (2PP) technique can offer a rapid, efficient, and reproducible alternative for the fabrication of integrated photonic devices. Here, we demonstrate an integrated photon-pair source based on a 2PP-defined strip-loaded waveguide on a periodically poled thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform. The device generates photon pairs through type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), employing first-order quasi-phase matching (QPM) with TM-polarized excitation light. The device achieves an on-chip pair generation rate of 4.357 MHz and a coincidence-to-accidental ratio (CAR) of ∼404. To prove the flexibility and versatility of the fabrication technique, the waveguides were erased from the LN substrate and reprinted, reaching comparable performance. This work demonstrates the potential of 2PP as a rapid production technique for high-performance integrated photon-pair sources, offering a practical solution to the limitations of traditional fabrication techniques and showcasing both reproducibility of the fabrication and the reusability of the substrate.","lang":"eng"}],"issue":"16","publication":"Optics Express"},{"oa":"1","citation":{"ieee":"F.

Here, in an established material platform like lithium niobate the achievable wavelength and bandwidth combinations are usually limited by the material’s dispersion and its birefringence. In this regard, mixed crystals of lithium niobate tantalate (LNT) promise a novel material platform, because they allow tuning the birefringence, which is central for type II phase matching devices. Crucially, LNT offers crystal  compositions without any birefringence, which still retain their second-order optical nonlinearity. Despite recent progress in the growth and fabrication of LNT, so far no works have investigated the unique properties of LNT for use in electro-optics, nonlinear or quantum optics. In this study, we explore nonlinear optical devices based on LNT for broad- and narrowband nonlinear optical interactions based on recently measured Sellmeier coefficients. Most interestingly, we find that compositions without birefringence allow the design of broadband, degenerate type II phase matching sources spanning the whole near- to mid-infrared range by only changing the poling period and pump wavelength. Such devices are not easily realizable in pure lithium niobate or lithium tantalate. This could potentially allow for\tmore flexible light sources and nonlinear devices in quantum metrology, quantum spectroscopy and quantum communication.","lang":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1364/OME.592892","open_access":"1"}],"article_number":"2668","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1364/ome.592892","year":"2026","title":"Lithium niobate tantalate mixed crystals: a versatile platform for nonlinear quantum processes","author":[{"full_name":"Roeder, Franz","last_name":"Roeder","first_name":"Franz","id":"88149"},{"last_name":"Rüsing","first_name":"Michael","orcid":"0000-0003-4682-4577","full_name":"Rüsing, Michael","id":"22501"},{"first_name":"Tobias","last_name":"Hehemann","full_name":"Hehemann, Tobias"},{"full_name":"Gnanavel, Abira","last_name":"Gnanavel","first_name":"Abira","id":"81424"},{"id":"13244","first_name":"Christof","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","last_name":"Eigner","full_name":"Eigner, Christof"},{"id":"27150","full_name":"Brecht, Benjamin","last_name":"Brecht","orcid":"0000-0003-4140-0556 ","first_name":"Benjamin"},{"full_name":"Imlau, Mirco","first_name":"Mirco","last_name":"Imlau"},{"id":"26263","full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine","first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Silberhorn"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["2159-3930"]},"date_updated":"2026-09-02T13:35:22Z","publication_status":"published","intvolume":"        16","article_type":"original"},{"citation":{"apa":"Lange, N.

In lithium niobate waveguides, nonlinear optical processes are often limited by the so-called photorefractive effect, which limits the maximum input or output powers and impacts the nonlinear spectral response. Therefore, strategies for the management of photorefractive damage are a key consideration in device design. Usually, the photorefractive damage threshold, i.e., the maximal permissible operating power, can be increased by high-temperature operation of devices. This approach, however, is not applicable in cryogenic environments, which may be required for specialized applications. To better understand the impact of photorefraction in nonlinear optical applications, we study the impact of photorefraction on the phase-matching spectra of two nonlinear-optical sum-frequency generation experiments at (1) high temperatures and (2) cryogenic temperatures. Furthermore, we present an approach to reduce the impact of photorefraction, which is compatible with cryogenic operation.

Thus LiNbO3 is used for various applications such as electro-optic modulation or nonlinear frequency conversion and mixing. But LiNbO3 also exhibits a strong photorefractive effect, which limits the intensity of the optical fields involved. Various approaches to reduce the photorefractive effect have been investigated, such as increasing the temperature, doping the crystal or using different waveguide designs in LiNbO3. Here, we present an analysis of the approach to increase the photorefractive damage threshold by using different waveguide designs. Contrary to previous claims and investigations, our SHG measurements revealed no significant difference in resistance to photorefractive damage when comparing conventional Ti-doped channel waveguides and Ti-doped diced ridge waveguides in LiNbO3. Furthermore, we have investigated the effect of photorefractive cleaning and curing using a light field at 532 nm. Here, we observe a reduction in the photorefractive effect at room temperature during and after SHG measurements, which is an easy alternative to conventional approaches.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2025-12-18T08:17:57Z","type":"journal_article","department":[{"_id":"288"},{"_id":"623"},{"_id":"15"}],"status":"public","publisher":"Elsevier BV","_id":"63192","user_id":"69553","volume":193,"citation":{"mla":"Kirsch, Michelle, et al. “Photorefraction and In-Situ Optical Cleaning in Various Types of LiNbO3 Waveguides.” <i>Optics &#38; Laser Technology</i>, vol. 193, 114260, Elsevier BV, 2025, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.optlastec.2025.114260\">10.1016/j.optlastec.2025.114260</a>.","ama":"Kirsch M, Kießler C, Lengeling S, et al.

We confirm the high quality of the generated single photons by determining a value for the heralded second-order correlation function as low as g_h^(2)=(6.7+/-1.1)*10^8-3). Furthermore, we achieve a high spectral brightness of 0.44·10pairs/(smWGHz) which is two orders of magnitude higher than sources based on weakly guiding waveguides. The shape of the PDC spectrum and the strong agreement between the effective and nominal bandwidth highlight our high fabrication quality of periodically poled waveguides.

The efficiency of these devices is strongly dependent on the interaction length between the light and the nonlinear material, scaling quadratically with this parameter. Nevertheless, the fabrication of long, continuously poled areas in TFLN remains challenging, the length of continuously poled areas rarely exceeds 10 mm. In this work, we demonstrate a significant progress in this field achieving the periodic poling of continuous poled areas of 70 mm length with a 3 μm poling period and a close to 50 % duty cycle. We compare two poling electrode design approaches to fabricate long, continuous poled areas. The first approach involves the poling of a single, continuous 70 mm long electrode. The second utilize a segmented approach including the poling of more than 20 individual sections forming together a 70 mm long poling area with no stitching errors. While the continuous electrode allows for faster fabrication, the segmented approach allows to individually optimize the poling resulting in less duty cycle variation. A detailed analysis of the periodic poling results reveals that the results of both are consistent with previously reported poling outcomes for shorter devices. Thus, we demonstrate wafer-scale periodic poling exceeding chiplet-size without any loss in the periodic poling quality. Our work presents a key step towards highly-efficient, narrow-bandwidth and low-pump power nonlinear optical devices.","lang":"eng"}],"_id":"62713","publisher":"Walter de Gruyter GmbH","page":"4761","volume":14,"user_id":"22501","status":"public","oa":"1","citation":{"ieee":"L.

Despite lithium niobate's wide applicability as a nonlinear optical material, the impact of mechanical stress on its nonlinear optical properties is not well characterized. In this work, we systematically study both experimentally and theoretically, the nonlinear optical responses of thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) single crystals. Compressive and tensile stress is applied in our experiment using a piezodriven strain cell. We then record the second-harmonic-generated (SHG) response in back-reflection geometry, and compare these results to theoretical modeling using density functional theory (DFT). Both methods consistently reveal that uniaxial stress induces changes of the nonlinear optical susceptibility of certain tensor elements on the order of up to 1 pm/(V GPa). The exact value depends on the tensor element that is addressed in our SHG analysis, on the crystal orientation, and also whether using compressive or tensile stresses. Furthermore, a lowering of the crystal symmetry when applying stress along the <a:math xmlns:a=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><a:mi>x</a:mi></a:math> or <b:math xmlns:b=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><b:mi>y</b:mi></b:math> crystallographic axes is observed by the appearance of new nonlinear optical tensor elements within the strained crystals.","lang":"eng"}],"issue":"6","publication":"Physical Review B","doi":"10.1103/physrevb.111.064109","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"064109","intvolume":"       111","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2025-04-02T16:24:47Z","author":[{"full_name":"Pionteck, Mike N.","first_name":"Mike N.","last_name":"Pionteck"},{"full_name":"Roeper, Matthias","last_name":"Roeper","first_name":"Matthias"},{"last_name":"Koppitz","first_name":"Boris","full_name":"Koppitz, Boris"},{"first_name":"Samuel D.","last_name":"Seddon","full_name":"Seddon, Samuel D."},{"id":"22501","full_name":"Rüsing, Michael","orcid":"0000-0003-4682-4577","last_name":"Rüsing","first_name":"Michael"},{"id":"40300","last_name":"Padberg","first_name":"Laura","full_name":"Padberg, Laura"},{"full_name":"Eigner, Christof","first_name":"Christof","last_name":"Eigner","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","id":"13244"},{"id":"26263","full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine","first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Silberhorn"},{"full_name":"Sanna, Simone","last_name":"Sanna","first_name":"Simone"},{"full_name":"Eng, Lukas M.","last_name":"Eng","first_name":"Lukas M."}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["2469-9950","2469-9969"]},"year":"2025","title":"Second-order nonlinear piezo-optic properties of single crystal lithium niobate thin films"},{"doi":"10.1364/optica.551287","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"720","intvolume":"        12","date_updated":"2025-06-12T09:56:47Z","publication_status":"published","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2334-2536"]},"author":[{"orcid":"0000-0003-0663-5587","last_name":"Thiele","first_name":"Frederik","full_name":"Thiele, Frederik","id":"50819"},{"full_name":"Lamberty, Niklas","last_name":"Lamberty","first_name":"Niklas","id":"75307"},{"id":"83846","first_name":"Thomas","last_name":"Hummel","orcid":"0000-0001-8627-2119","full_name":"Hummel, Thomas"},{"full_name":"Lange, Nina Amelie","last_name":"Lange","first_name":"Nina Amelie","orcid":"0000-0001-6624-7098","id":"56843"},{"id":"105816","full_name":"Procopio Peña, Lorenzo Manuel","last_name":"Procopio Peña","first_name":"Lorenzo Manuel"},{"id":"104502","last_name":"Barua","first_name":"Aishi","full_name":"Barua, Aishi"},{"full_name":"Lengeling, Sebastian","first_name":"Sebastian","last_name":"Lengeling","id":"44373"},{"last_name":"Quiring","first_name":"Viktor","full_name":"Quiring, Viktor"},{"id":"13244","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","last_name":"Eigner","first_name":"Christof","full_name":"Eigner, Christof"},{"full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine","first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Silberhorn","id":"26263"},{"full_name":"Bartley, Tim","first_name":"Tim","last_name":"Bartley","id":"49683"}],"title":"Cryogenic feedforward of a photonic quantum state","year":"2025","type":"journal_article","date_created":"2025-06-04T18:34:16Z","abstract":[{"text":"<jats:p>Modulation conditioned on measurements on entangled photonic quantum states is a cornerstone technology of optical quantum information processing.

Mixed crystals with arbitrary Nb–Ta ratios provide an additional degree of freedom to not only tune materials properties, such as the birefringence but also leverage the advantages of the singular compounds, for example, by combining the thermal stability of lithium tantalate with the larger nonlinear or piezoelectric constants of lithium niobate. Periodic poling allows to achieve phase-matching independent of waveguide geometry and is, therefore, one of the commonly used methods in integrated nonlinear optics. For mixed crystals, periodic poling has been challenging so far due to the lack of homogeneous, mono-domain crystals, which severely inhibit domain growth and nucleation. In this work, we investigate surface-near (&amp;lt;1μm depth) domain inversion on x-cut lithium niobate tantalate mixed crystals via electric field poling and lithographically structured electrodes. We find that naturally occurring head-to-head or tail-to-tail domain walls in the as-grown crystal inhibit domain inversion at a larger scale. However, periodic poling is possible if the gap size between the poling electrodes is of the same order of magnitude or smaller than the average size of naturally occurring domains.

However, existing sources based on bulk crystals are limited in brightness due to the short interaction length and only allow for limited dispersion engineering. Here, we present an integrated PDC source based on a Ti:LiNbO3 waveguide that generates broadband bi-photons with central wavelengths at 860 nm and 2800 nm. Their spectral bandwidth exceeds 25 THz and is achieved by simultaneous matching of the group velocities (GVs) and cancellation of GV dispersion for the signal and idler field. We provide an intuitive understanding of the process by studying our source’s behavior at different temperatures and pump wavelengths, which agrees well with simulations."}],"publication":"New Journal of Physics","issue":"12","doi":"10.1088/1367-2630/ad9f98","article_number":"123025","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2026-09-02T14:54:23Z","article_type":"original","intvolume":"        26","year":"2024","title":"Ultra-broadband non-degenerate guided-wave bi-photon source in the near and mid-infrared","author":[{"last_name":"Roeder","first_name":"Franz","full_name":"Roeder, Franz","id":"88149"},{"id":"81424","full_name":"Gnanavel, Abira","first_name":"Abira","last_name":"Gnanavel"},{"id":"78890","full_name":"Pollmann, René","last_name":"Pollmann","first_name":"René"},{"full_name":"Brecht, Olga","last_name":"Brecht","first_name":"Olga"},{"id":"42777","full_name":"Stefszky, Michael","first_name":"Michael","last_name":"Stefszky"},{"id":"40300","first_name":"Laura","last_name":"Padberg","full_name":"Padberg, Laura"},{"id":"13244","first_name":"Christof","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","last_name":"Eigner","full_name":"Eigner, Christof"},{"id":"26263","first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Silberhorn","full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine"},{"id":"27150","last_name":"Brecht","orcid":"0000-0003-4140-0556 ","first_name":"Benjamin","full_name":"Brecht, Benjamin"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["1367-2630"]},"project":[{"name":"MIRAQLS: MIRAQLS: Mid-infrared Quantum Technology for Sensing","_id":"571"},{"_id":"190","name":"E2TPA: Exploiting Entangled Two-Photon Absorption"}],"citation":{"short":"F.

The fabrication of low-loss optical waveguides, as well as high-grade periodically poled ferroelectric domain structures, requires a profound understanding of the material properties and crystal structure. In this regard, Raman spectroscopy offers the possibility to study and visualize domain structures, strain, defects, and the local stoichiometry, which are all factors impacting device performance. However, the accurate interpretation of Raman spectra and their changes with respect to extrinsic and intrinsic defects requires a thorough assignment of the Raman modes to their respective crystal features, which to date is only partly conducted based on phenomenological modelling. To address this issue, we calculated the phonon spectra of potassium titanyl phosphate and the related compounds rubidium titanyl phosphate (RbTiOPO4) and potassium titanyl arsenate (KTiOAsO4) based on density functional theory and compared them with experimental data. Overall, this allows us to assign various spectral features to eigenmodes of lattice substructures with improved detail compared to previous assignments. Nevertheless, the analysis also shows that not all features of the spectra can unambigiously be explained yet. A possible explanation might be that defects or long range fields not included in the modeling play a crucial rule for the resulting Raman spectrum. In conclusion, this work provides an improved foundation into the vibrational properties in the KTiOPO4 material family.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2023-10-11T09:10:53Z","type":"journal_article","keyword":["Inorganic Chemistry","Condensed Matter Physics","General Materials Science","General Chemical Engineering"],"department":[{"_id":"169"}],"year":"2023","title":"Vibrational Properties of the Potassium Titanyl Phosphate Crystal Family","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2073-4352"]},"author":[{"full_name":"Neufeld, Sergej","last_name":"Neufeld","first_name":"Sergej"},{"full_name":"Gerstmann, Uwe","last_name":"Gerstmann","first_name":"Uwe","orcid":"0000-0002-4476-223X","id":"171"},{"id":"40300","full_name":"Padberg, Laura","first_name":"Laura","last_name":"Padberg"},{"full_name":"Eigner, Christof","first_name":"Christof","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","last_name":"Eigner","id":"13244"},{"full_name":"Berth, Gerhard","first_name":"Gerhard","last_name":"Berth","id":"53"},{"first_name":"Christine","last_name":"Silberhorn","full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine","id":"26263"},{"full_name":"Eng, Lukas M.","first_name":"Lukas M.","last_name":"Eng"},{"full_name":"Schmidt, Wolf Gero","orcid":"0000-0002-2717-5076","last_name":"Schmidt","first_name":"Wolf Gero","id":"468"},{"full_name":"Rüsing, Michael","orcid":"0000-0003-4682-4577","last_name":"Rüsing","first_name":"Michael","id":"22501"}],"date_updated":"2023-10-11T09:15:58Z","publication_status":"published","intvolume":"        13","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.3390/cryst13101423"}],"article_number":"1423","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"doi":"10.3390/cryst13101423"},{"publication":"Optics Express","issue":"20","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"<jats:p>Quantum photonic processing via electro-optic components typically requires electronic links across different operation environments, especially when interfacing cryogenic components such as superconducting single photon detectors with room-temperature control and readout electronics.
