Over the last few decades, nonlinear optical (NLO) processes have become a pillar for novel photonic devices. In particular, four-wave mixing (FWM) effects can be used to generate quantum optical states of light, such as entangled photons. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer significant advantages compared to conventional nonlinear materials, as their strong light-matter interaction and ease of integration into existing photonic platforms[1] make them perfect for enhancing the performance of integrated NLO devices. In addition, their atomic thickness softens phase matching limits, providing a virtually unlimited bandwidth for FWM[2]. This could be exploited to entangle photons from various spectral regions, making them an ideal source for quantum imaging applications[3]. In this work, we study broadband and exciton enhanced FWM in the telecom spectral range in MoS2, highlighting the capability of TMDs for integrated photonics and communication applications.
