  text: "<jats:p>\r\n                    The development of practical sensors for
    optical coherence tomography (OCT) with undetected photons requires miniaturization
    via integration. To be practical, these sensors must exhibit a large spectral
    bandwidth and a high brightness, which are linked to a high axial resolution and
    a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio, respectively. Here, we combine these requirements
    in a scheme for OCT measurements with undetected photons based on nonlinear\r\n

  text: Stress plays a crucial role in thin films and layered systems, and thus significantly
    influences the material's electrical, mechanical and (nonlinear) optical responses.
    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.

  text: <jats:p>Modulation conditioned on measurements on entangled photonic quantum
    states is a cornerstone technology of optical quantum information processing.
    Performing this task with low latency requires combining single-photon-level detectors
    with both electronic logic processing and optical modulation in close proximity.
    Here, we demonstrate low-latency feedforward using a quasi-photon-number-resolved
    measurement on a quantum light source. Specifically, we use a multipixel superconducting
    nanowire single-photon detector, amplifier, logic, and an integrated electro-optic
    modulator <jats:italic toggle="yes">in situ</jats:italic> below 4 K. We modulate
    the signal mode of a spontaneous parametric down-conversion source, conditional
    on a photon-number measurement of the idler mode, with a total latency of (23±3)ns.
    Furthermore, we investigate the resulting change in the photon statistics. This
    represents an important benchmark for the fastest quantum photonic feedforward
    experiments comprising measurement, amplification, logic, and modulation. This
    has direct applications in quantum computing, communication, and simulation protocols.</jats:p>

  text: The titanium in-diffused lithium niobate waveguide platform is well-established
    for reliable prototyping and packaging of many quantum photonic components at
    room temperature. Nevertheless, compatibility with certain quantum light sources
    and superconducting detectors requires operation under cryogenic conditions. We
    characterize alterations in phase-matching and mode guiding of a non-degenerate
    spontaneous parametric down-conversion process emitting around 1556 nm and 950 nm,
    under cryogenic conditions. Despite the effects of pyroelectricity and photorefraction,
    the spectral properties match our theoretical model. Nevertheless, these effects
    cause small but significant variations within and between cooling cycles. These
    measurements provide a first benchmark against which other nonlinear photonic
    integration platforms, such as thin-film lithium niobate, can be compared.

  text: Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) is a widely used material with several desirable
    physical properties, such as high second-order nonlinear optical and strong electro-optical
    effects. 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.

  text: We present the design and characterization of a guided-wave, bright, and highly
    frequency non-degenerate parametric down-conversion (PDC) source in thin-film
    lithium niobate. The source generates photon pairs with wavelengths of 815 nm
    and 1550 nm, linking the visible wavelength regime with telecommunication wavelengths.
    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 good agreement between the measured and simulated spectral characteristics
    of our source demonstrates our excellent understanding of the PDC process. Our
    result is a valuable step towards practical and scalable quantum communication
    networks as well as photonic quantum computing.

  text: Periodically poled thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) crystals are the fundamental
    building block for highly-efficient quantum light sources and frequency converters.
    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.

  text: The biphoton correlation time, a measure for the conditional uncertainty in
    the temporal arrival of two photons from a photon pair source, is a key performance
    identifier for many quantum spectroscopy applications, with shorter correlation
    times typically yielding better performance. Furthermore, it provides fundamental
    insight into the effects of dispersion on the biphoton state. Here, we show that
    a characteristic dependence of the width of the temporal interferogram can be
    exploited to obtain insights into the amount of second-order dispersion inside
    the interferometer and to retrieve actual and Fourier-limited ultrashort biphoton
    correlation times of around 100 fs. In the presented scheme, we simultaneously
    measure spectral and temporal interferograms at the output of an SU(1,1) interferometer
    based on an integrated broadband parametric down conversion source in a Ti:LiNbO3
    waveguide.

  text: <jats:p>Lithium niobate and lithium tantalate are among the most widespread
    materials for nonlinear, integrated photonics. 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. This work provides the basis for the nonlinear optical application
    of lithium niobate tantalate mixed crystals.</jats:p>

  text: "<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>\r\n               <jats:p>Lithium niobate
    has emerged as a promising platform for integrated quantum optics, enabling efficient
    generation, manipulation, and detection of quantum states of light. However, integrating
    single-photon detectors requires cryogenic operating temperatures, since the best
    performing detectors are based on narrow superconducting wires. While previous
    studies have demonstrated the operation of quantum light sources and electro-optic
    modulators in LiNbO<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> at cryogenic temperatures, the thermal
    transition between room temperature and cryogenic conditions introduces additional
    effects that can significantly influence device performance. In this paper, we
    investigate the generation of pyroelectric charges and their impact on the optical
    properties of lithium niobate waveguides when changing from room temperature to
    25 K, and vice versa. We measure the generated pyroelectric charge flow and correlate
    this with fast changes in the birefringence acquired through the Sénarmont-method.
    Both electrical and optical influence of the pyroelectric effect occur predominantly
    at temperatures above 100 K.</jats:p>"

  text: <jats:p>We demonstrate a high-dimensional mode-sorter for single photons based
    on a multi-output quantum pulse gate, which we can program to switch between different
    temporal-mode encodings including pulse modes, frequency bins, time bins, and
    their superpositions. This device can facilitate practical realizations of quantum
    information applications such as high-dimensional quantum key distribution and
    thus enables secure communication with enhanced information capacity. We characterize
    the mode-sorter through a detector tomography in 3 and 5 dimensions and find a
    fidelity up to 0.958 ± 0.030 at the single-photon level.</jats:p>

  text: "<jats:p>Broadband quantum light is a vital resource for quantum metrology
    and spectroscopy applications such as quantum optical coherence tomography or
    entangled two photon absorption. For entangled two photon absorption in particular,
    very high photon flux combined with high time-frequency entanglement is crucial
    for observing a signal. So far these conditions could be met by using high power

    (SPDC) sources. This naturally limits the available wavelength ranges and precludes
    deterministic splitting of the generated output photons. In this work we demonstrate

  text: The latest applications in ultrafast quantum metrology require bright, broadband
    bi-photon sources with one of the photons in the mid-infrared and the other in
    the visible to near infrared. 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.

  text: The crystal family of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTiOPO4) is a promising
    material group for applications in quantum and nonlinear optics. 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.

  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. However, readout and driving
    electronics can introduce detrimental parasitic effects. Here we show an all-optical
    control and readout of a superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD),
    completely electrically decoupled from room temperature electronics. We provide
    the operation power for the superconducting detector via a cryogenic photodiode,
    and readout single photon detection signals via a cryogenic electro-optic modulator
    in the same cryostat. This method opens the possibility for control and readout
    of superconducting circuits, and feedforward for photonic quantum computing.</jats:p>

  text: <jats:p>The crystal family of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTiOPO4) is a promising
    material group for applications in quantum and nonlinear optics. 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.</jats:p>

  text: Interference between single photons is key for many quantum optics experiments
    and applications in quantum technologies, such as quantum communication or computation.
    It is advantageous to operate the systems at telecommunication wavelengths and
    to integrate the setups for these applications in order to improve stability,
    compactness and scalability. A new promising material platform for integrated
    quantum optics is lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI). Here, we realise Hong-Ou-Mandel
    (HOM) interference between telecom photons from an engineered parametric down-conversion
    source in an LNOI directional coupler. The coupler has been designed and fabricated
    in house and provides close to perfect balanced beam splitting. We obtain a raw
    HOM visibility of (93.5 ± 0.7) %, limited mainly by the source performance and
    in good agreement with off-chip measurements. This lays the foundation for more
    sophisticated quantum experiments in LNOI.
