集成光学技术在光量子信息处理等新兴技术有着重要的应用. 相比于分立光学, 集成光学技术具有体积小、成本低、稳定性好以及易操控的优势. 然而, 随着集成光量子芯片线路的复杂程度和规模的增加, 对芯片上的移相器, 比如级联马赫-曾德尔干涉仪中的相移器的标定, 将会成为一个棘手的问题. 传统的级联马赫-曾德尔干涉仪的移相器标定时间是随着级联个数的增加而指数增加的, 目前所报道实现的最大级联个数仅为5个移相器. 本文针对上述问题, 提出了一种高效的标定方法. 使用该方法对级联马赫-曾德尔干涉仪移相器的标定时间只随移相器数量线性增长, 相比于传统方法实现了指数级的加速. 本文在计算机上模拟了20个级联马赫-曾德尔干涉仪移相器的标定, 结果显示保真度都大于99.8%, 从而验证了该标定方法的有效性. 本工作有望应用于光量子信息处理与光计算等方面.Integrated photonics has the advantages of miniaturization, low cost, stability and easy manipulation in comparison with bulk optics. However, as the scale and complexity of the chip increase, the calibration of cascaded phase shifters on-chip will be almost impossible. The time needed to calibrate the cascaded phase shifters with using conventional method increases exponentially with the number of cascades, and the maximum number of cascades achieved so far is only 5. In this paper, we propose a high-speed calibration method by which the calibration time increases only linearly with the number of cascades increasing, achieving an exponential acceleration. For N-cascaded phase shifters, the number of points scanned by each shifter is m, our method only needs to scan
$ ({m}^{2}+m+1)N-1 $ points instead of$ {m}^{n} $ with using the proposed method. The main idea of this method is that we can calibrate phase shifters one by one via two-dimensional (2D) scanning. For example, for N-cascaded phase shifter, the calibration of phase shifter N can be realized by calibrating the 2D scanning phase shifter$ N-1 $ and the 2D scanning phase shifter N, and the calibration of phase shifter$ N-1 $ can be achieved by calibrating the 2D scanning phase shifter$ N-2 $ and the 2D scanning phase shifter$ N-1 $ , and so on. The 2D scanning phase shifter$ N-1 $ and the 2D scanning phase shifter N scan the phase shifter N by m points and then the current of phase shifter$ N-1 $ is changed to scan the phase shifter N. Whenever changing the current of phase shifter$ N-1 $ once, we can plot a curve of current-transmission. The lowest point of the curve changes with the change of the current phase shifter$ N-1 $ . When the lowest point of the curve takes a maximum value, that point is the 0 or π phase of phase shifter N. Similarly, when the lowest point of the curve takes a maximum value, that point is the$ -0.5{\rm{\pi }} $ or$ 0.5{\rm{\pi }} $ phase of phase shifter$ N-1 $ . Then we can calibrate all phase shifters by using this method, but each phase shifter has two possibilities. Then we can set a specific current of all phase shifters to finish the calibration. The different parameters are verified to see their effect on fidelity. It is found that small experimental error has little effect on fidelity. When$ m > 20 $ , the fidelity becomes approximately a constant. For every 1760 increase in N, the fidelity decreases by about 0.01%. The fidelity of 20-cascaded phase shifters is 99.8%. The splitting ratio of MMI may is not 50∶50 as designed because of chip processing errors. So, different splitting ratios are simulated and it is found that the splitting ratio affects the fidelity more seriously than other parameters. But our method works still well even when the splitting ratio is 45∶55, whose fidelity is 99.95% if we know the splitting ratio. The method will greatly expand the application scope of integrated quantum photonics.[1] Gisin N, Ribordy G, Tittel W, Zbinden H 2002 Rev. Mod. Phys. 74 145
