Thematic school 2025
Lithium Niobate on Insulator integrated photonics from fabrication to classical and quantum applications
The Houches Physics School, France, May 12 to 23 - 2025
The workshop is dedicated to bring leaders in integrated photonics platform of Lithium Niobate On Insulator (LNOI) together with the aim of providing an overview on the advances that have been achieved over the last years, use this overview to speculate about future opportunities of LNOI and provide recommendations on how these opportunities can be realized by coordinated research efforts. The workshop will cover all aspects, including simulation and fabrication, devices that use electro-optic and nonlinear optical properties of LNOI, and applications spanning from classical to quantum optical. This workshop is motivated as shortly after its emergence, the LNOI platform has taken the performance of electro-optical and nonlinear optical devices to a higher level, taking the lead over the bulk lithium niobate-based compounds developed over the last decades, making this unique workshop very timely as it will provide a forecast of the future of this platform and boost coordinated research collaborations.

Photonique intégrée en plateforme niobate de lithium couche mince sur Silicium : de la fabrication aux applications classiques et quantiques
Ecole de Physique des Houches, du 12 au 23 mai 2025
L'école thématique a pour but de rassembler les leaders de la plate-forme photonique intégrée du Niobate de lithium sur isolant (LNOI) afin de fournir une vue d'ensemble des progrès réalisés au cours des dernières années, d'analyser les opportunités futures du LNOI et de fournir des recommandations sur la manière dont ces opportunités peuvent être concrétisées par des efforts de recherche coordonnés. L'atelier couvrira tous les aspects depuis la simulation et la fabrication, en passant par les dispositifs qui utilisent les propriétés électro-optiques ou les propriétés optiques non linéaires du LNOI, jusqu’aux applications en optique classique et aux démonstrateurs quantiques. Cet atelier est motivé par le large éventail d’avancées sur la plateforme LNOI peu après son apparition, qui a porté les performances des dispositifs électro-optiques et non linéaires à un niveau très élevé, acquérant déjà des performances supérieures à celles des composés à base de niobate de lithium massif, développés au cours des dernières décennies. Ceci confère à l’atelier un caractère unique et opportun car il fournira une vision de l'avenir de cette plateforme et encouragera de futures collaborations de recherche.
