Coupling of photonic crystal fibers to nonlinear waveguides for quantum frequency conversion — •Felix Rohe, Marlon Schäfer, Tobias Bauer, David Lindler, and Christoph Becher — Universität des Saarlandes, Fachrichtung Physik, Campus E2 6, 66123 Saarbrücken

Quantum frequency conversion to the low-loss telecom bands is a key enabling technology for long-range fiber-based quantum networks. While many current devices use free space coupling to channel waveguides [1,2], for real world applications a more robust and compact design is desirable. Hence, direct butt-coupling of optical fibers to channel waveguides poses an interesting alternative.
Here, we investigate coupling of solid-core photonic crystal fibers (PCF) to periodically poled lithium niobate waveguides. PCF are promising candidates for use in quantum frequency conversion due to their ability to simultaneously guide waves with a large difference in wavelengths in the fundamental mode, which is crucial to spatially overlap the signal photons and the mixing wave. We show first results regarding coupling and conversion efficiencies.
