Abstract

A photonic circuit integrated on a silicon-on-insulator waveguide, the silicon-on-insulator waveguide including a guiding layer, a cladding layer, and a substrate layer. The guiding layer having a first surface and a second surface, the second surface abutting one surface of the cladding layer, the cladding layer having another surface in abutment with a surface of the substrate layer, a photon pump in optical communication with the guiding layer, a nonlinear optical material in contact with the guiding layer first surface, a photon beam of the photon pump traversing the silicon-on-insulator waveguide, and the silicon-on-insulator waveguide having an output beam that includes a signal beam and an idler beam.
