Lithium niobate thin film represents as an ideal material substrate for quantum photonics due to its strong electro-optic effect and high-speed modulation capability. Here, we propose a novel platform which heterogeneously integrates single self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots for a single-photon source on a lithium niobate photonic chip. The InAs/GaAs quantum dots can be transferred to the lithium niobate waveguide via a substrate transfer procedure with nanometer precision and be integrated through van der Waals force. A down-tapered structure is designed and optimized to deliver the photon flux generated from the InAs quantum dots embedded in a GaAs waveguide to the lithium niobate waveguide with an overall efficiency of 42%. In addition, the electro-optical effect is used to tune, and therefore to tune the beam splitting ratio of the integrated lithium niobate directional coupler, which can simultaneously route multiple photons to different spatial modes, and subsequently fan out through grating couplers to achieve single-photon sub-multiplexing. The proposed device opens up novel opportunities for achieving multifunctional hybrid integrated photonic chips.

Abstract Photonic-integrated circuits (PICs) using ferroelectric materials are expected to be used in many applications because of its unique optical properties such as large electro-optic coefficients. In this study, a novel PIC based on a ferroelectric thin-film platform was designed and fabricated, where high-speed optical modulator, spot-size converters (SSCs), and a variable optical attenuator (VOA) were successfully integrated. A ferroelectric lanthanum-modified lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) thin film was epitaxially-grown by using a modified sol-gel method, and it exhibits large electro-optic coefficients (>120 pm/V) and low propagation loss (1.1 dB/cm). The optical modulator, a Mach-Zehnder type, exhibited a half-wave voltage (Vπ) of 6.0 V (VπL = 4.5 Vcm) and optical modulation up to 56 Gb/s. Also, the VOA (with attenuation range of more than 26 dB) was successfully integrated with the modulator. As a result, it is concluded that the developed ferroelectric platform can pave the way for photonic integration.
