Abstract: Methods for fabricating optically active quantum memories into quantum-grade diamond thin films and then bonding them to semiconductor substrates are described. Semiconductor substrates are optically and electronically functionalized in preparation for using a flip-chip bonding technique to bond the functionalized substrates to overgrown diamond thin films that host color centers. By purposefully growing quantum-grade diamond thin films and implanting them with color centers separately from fabrication processes that functionalize the substrates, the high quality, purity, and crystallinity of the thin films are preserved, while also allowing for further customization of the types of color centers that are implanted into the diamond.

Abstract: System and methods for aligning optical elements to form adiabatic couplings are disclosed. An alignment device includes a common platform and a plurality of electrically-controlled mounts affixed to the common platform. Individual fibers of a first set of fibers that are to be aligned with a second set of fibers are coupled into respective ones of the plurality of electrically-controlled mounts. The platform as a whole is positioned in 3D space to align the first set of fibers with the second set of fibers, within a threshold level of alignment. Then, individual ones of the electrically-controlled mounts are adjusted to further align respective fibers of the first set of fibers with a corresponding fiber of the second set. In some embodiments, scattered light and/or signal strength are used as feedback measurements to guide the alignment process.

Abstract: Systems and methods for securing optical fibers with complimentary tapered ends are described. In some embodiments, optical fibers are aligned to form an adiabatic coupling, and a first one of the optical fibers is secured, via an adhesive, to a structure of an optical device hosting a second one of the optical fibers with which the first optical fibers is coupled. The first and second optical fibers, coupled and secured using the adhesive, are then immersed in a photo-active liquid polymer and two-photon lithography is used to form an additional securing structure around the adiabatically coupled ends of the first and second optical fibers. The additional securing structure is configured to maintain the adiabatic coupling throughout various mechanical and/or thermal shocks the adiabatically coupled fibers may encounter.
