  text: Samples of dielectric optical waveguides of rib or strip type in thin-film
    lithium niobate (TFLN) technology are characterized with respect to their optical
    loss using the Fabry-Pérot method. Attributing the losses mainly to sidewall roughness,
    we employ a simple perturbational procedure, based on rigorously computed mode
    profiles of idealized channels, to estimate the attenuation for waveguides with
    different cross sections. A single fit parameter suffices for an adequate modelling
    of the effect of the waveguide geometry on the loss levels.

  text: Lateral leakage of TM modes in dielectric optical waveguides of rib/ridge
    or strip-loaded types can be fully suppressed, if the waveguide core is formed
    not through a strip that protrudes at one side (up) from the remaining lateral
    guiding slab, but through parallel strips on both sides (up and down), such that
    the resulting cross section becomes vertically symmetric. The fairly general arguments
    underlying the leakage suppression apply to TM modes of all orders simultaneously,
    and are independent of wavelength. These plus-shaped waveguides support strictly
    guided, non-leaky TM modes for, in principle, arbitrarily shallow etching.

  text: Phased arrays are vital in communication systems and have received significant
    interest in the field of optoelectronics and photonics, enabling a wide range
    of applications such as LiDAR, holography, wireless communication, etc. In this
    work, we present a blazed grating antenna that is optimized to have upward radiation
    efficiency as high as 80% with a compact footprint of 3.5 μm × 2 μm at an operational
    wavelength of 1.55 μm. Our numerical investigations demonstrate that this antenna
    in a 64 × 64 phased array configuration is capable of producing desired far-field
    radiation patterns. Additionally, our antenna possesses a low side lobe level
    of -9.7 dB and a negligible reflection efficiency of under 1%, making it an attractive
    candidate for integrated optical phased arrays.

  text: 'Dielectric slab waveguides made of thin-film-lithium-niobate (TFLN) media
    are consid-ered, for operation in the linear regime. We outline and implement
    a largely analytic procedure forrigorous modal analysis of three-layer slabs with
    birefringent, anisotropic core. For Z-cut wave-guides, the slab eigenmode problem
    separates into uncoupled sets of scalar equations for TE andTM modes. Slabs in
    X-cut configuration support mostly mildly hybrid eigenmodes, with clear pre-dominant
    TE or TM polarization, and with effective indices that depend on the propagation
    directionof the modes, relative to the crystal axes. Strong hybridization can
    be observed for near degeneratemodes in singular configurations without vertical
    symmetry, or in symmetric slabs where two nearlydegenerate modes are of the same
    symmetry class. Dispersion curves for slab thickness and propa-gation angle are
    discussed, for slabs with oxide and air cover. '

  text: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The biexciton‐exciton emission cascade
    commonly used in quantum‐dot systems to generate polarization entanglement yields
    photons with intrinsically limited indistinguishability. In the present work,
    it focuses on the generation of pairs of photons with high degrees of polarization
    entanglement and simultaneously high indistinguishability. It achieves this goal
    by selectively reducing the biexciton lifetime with an optical resonator. It demonstrates
    that a suitably tailored circular Bragg reflector fulfills the requirements of
    sufficient selective Purcell enhancement of biexciton emission paired with spectrally
    broad photon extraction and twofold degenerate optical modes. The in‐depth theoretical
    study combines (i) the optimization of realistic photonic structures solving Maxwell's
    equations from which model parameters are extracted as input for (ii) microscopic
    simulations of quantum‐dot cavity excitation dynamics with full access to photon
    properties. It reports non‐trivial dependencies on system parameters and use the
    predictive power of the combined theoretical approach to determine the optimal
    range of Purcell enhancement that maximizes indistinguishability and entanglement
    to near unity values, here specifically for the telecom C‐band at 1550 nm.</jats:p>

  text: Silicon photonics, in conjunction with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor
    (CMOS) fabrication, has greatly enhanced the development of integrated optical
    phased arrays. This facilitates a dynamic control of light in a compact form factor
    that enables the synthesis of arbitrary complex wavefronts in the infrared spectrum.
    We numerically demonstrate a large-scale two-dimensional silicon-based optical
    phased array (OPA) composed of nanoantennas with circular gratings that are balanced
    in power and aligned in phase, required for producing elegant radiation patterns
    in the far-field. For a wavelength of 1.55 μm, we optimize two antennas for the
    OPA exhibiting an upward radiation efficiency as high as 90%, with almost 6.8%
    of optical power concentrated in the field of view. Additionally, we believe that
    the proposed OPAs can be easily fabricated and would have the ability to generate
    complex holographic images, rendering them an attractive candidate for a wide
    range of applications like LiDAR sensors, optical trapping, optogenetic stimulation,
    and augmented-reality displays.

  text: High-contrast slab waveguide Bragg gratings with 1D periodicity are investigated.
    For specific oblique excitation by semi-guided waves at sufficiently high angles
    of incidence, the idealized structures do not exhibit any radiative losses, such
    that reflectance and transmittance for the single port mode add strictly up to
    one. We consider a series of symmetric, fully and partly etched finite gratings,
    for parameters found in integrated silicon photonics. These can act as spectral
    filters with a reasonably flattop response. Apodization can lead to more box shaped
    reflectance and transmittance spectra. Together with a narrowband Fabry–Perot
    filter, these configurations are characterized by reflection bands, or transmittance
    peaks, with widths that span three orders of magnitude.

  text: A key challenge in designing efficient optical phased arrays is the lack of
    a well-designed radiator. This work explores horn antennas numerically optimized
    to target high upward radiation efficiency to be employed in silicon-based phased
    arrays capable of producing elegant radiation patterns in the far-field.

  text: Dielectric metasurfaces provide a unique platform for efficient harmonic generation
    and optical wavefront manipulation at the nanoscale. Tailoring phase and amplitude
    of a nonlinearly generated wave with a high emission efficiency using resonance-based
    metasurfaces is a challenging task that often requires state-of-the-art numerical
    methods. Here, we propose a simple yet effective approach combining a sampling
    method with a Monte Carlo approach to design the third-harmonic wavefront generated
    by all-dielectric metasurfaces composed of elliptical silicon nanodisks. Using
    this approach, we theoretically demonstrate the full nonlinear 2π phase control
    with a uniform and highest possible amplitude in the considered parameter space,
    allowing us to design metasurfaces operating as third harmonic beam deflectors
    capable of steering light into a desired direction with high emission efficiency.
    The TH beam deflection with a record calculated average conversion efficiency
    of 1.2 × 10–1 W–2 is achieved. We anticipate that the proposed approach will be
    widely applied as alternative to commonly used optimization algorithms with higher
    complexity and implementation effort for the design of metasurfaces with other
    holographic functionalities.

  text: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The biexciton‐exciton emission cascade
    commonly used in quantum‐dot systems to generate polarization entanglement yields
    photons with intrinsically limited indistinguishability. In the present work,
    it focuses on the generation of pairs of photons with high degrees of polarization
    entanglement and simultaneously high indistinguishability. It achieves this goal
    by selectively reducing the biexciton lifetime with an optical resonator. It demonstrates
    that a suitably tailored circular Bragg reflector fulfills the requirements of
    sufficient selective Purcell enhancement of biexciton emission paired with spectrally
    broad photon extraction and twofold degenerate optical modes. The in‐depth theoretical
    study combines (i) the optimization of realistic photonic structures solving Maxwell's
    equations from which model parameters are extracted as input for (ii) microscopic
    simulations of quantum‐dot cavity excitation dynamics with full access to photon
    properties. It reports non‐trivial dependencies on system parameters and use the
    predictive power of the combined theoretical approach to determine the optimal
    range of Purcell enhancement that maximizes indistinguishability and entanglement
    to near unity values, here specifically for the telecom C‐band at 1550 nm.</jats:p>
