Abstract

We investigate the evanescent coupling of femtosecond laser written waveguides with elliptical and circular shape. A directional tuning the coupling properties is realized in a cubic array by tilting the elliptical waveguides. This allows to specifically pronounce diagonal coupling. In contrast, directional insensitive coupling is demonstrated in a circular waveguide array based on circular waveguides.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Femtosecond laser technology can produce high-quality waveguides able to support polarization-entangled photon states.

    “In a previous work we have demonstrated that fem- tosecond laser technology can produce high-quality waveguides able to support polarization entangled pho- ton states [25, 26].”
  • In femtosecond laser written waveguides, birefringence is low and does not significantly affect the coherence of the photons.

    “In these femtosecond laser written waveguides, birefringence is low and does not affect sig- nificantly the coherence of the photons.”
  • To meet the undepleted pump approximation, the intensities in the pump waveguide do not decrease significantly by choosing a sufficiently weak coupling of Cc = 0.125 cm−1, corresponding to a distance between the pump waveguide and the array of 25 μm.

    “To meet the undepleted pump approximation of SPDC we made sure that the intensities in the pump waveguide do not decrease significantly by choosing a sufficiently weak coupling of Cc = 0.125 cm−1, corresponding to a distance between the pump waveguide and the array of 25 µm20.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
