Abstract

An apparatus for producing squeezed light includes a substrate and a first beam splitter integrated onto the substrate. The apparatus also includes a Mach-Zehnder interferometer integrated onto the substrate. The Mach-Zehnder interferometer has a first input coupled to a first output of the first beam splitter and a first output coupled to a second output of the first beam splitter. The apparatus also includes a waveguide integrated onto the substrate and connecting a second input of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer to a second output of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The waveguide and the Mach-Zehnder interferometer form a ring resonator. The ring resonator can also be replaced by a waveguide section, including, for example, a spiral waveguide.
