On-chip whispering gallery mode resonators (WGMRs) can generate these states at ultra-low threshold power. In this paper, we demonstrate the simultaneous generation of three QFCs using a single on-chip $Si_3N_4$ WGMR across distinct modal families. We designed a micro-ring resonator with a radius of 240 $\\mu m$, capable of supporting four modal families within the 130 to 260 $THz$ frequency range for consistency regulation. Our results indicate that, by carefully designing the structure of $Si_3 N_4$ WGMRs, it is possible to generate quantum entangled frequency combs across distinct modal families simultaneously using monochromatic pump light. This is achieved by modulating the pump mode profiles with a spatial light modulator (SLM). Our approach offers a simple and low-cost method to achieve higher-density entanglement integration on-chip.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-06-24T13:08:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "whispering gallery mode resonator", "distinct modal families", "quantum frequency combs", "simultaneous generation", "higher-density entanglement integration on-chip" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
