Realization Of A Micro-Cavity Via The Integration Of Silicon Nitride And Lithium Niobate Using Micro Transfer Printing, Adarsh Ananthachar, Maria V. Kotlyar, Samir Ghosh, Sarvagya Dwivedi, Simone Iadanza, Liam O'Faolain, Shamsul Arafin, Brian Corbett

Conference Papers

We combine Lithium Niobate and Silicon Nitride using transfer printing and realize a micro-cavity with an experimentally measured intrinsic Q-factors of 50,000. We believe this is the first realization of such type of a micro-cavity.

Level Sets Of Functions And Symmetry Sets Of Surface Sections, André Diatta, Peter Giblin, Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg

Conference Papers

We prove that the level sets of a real C s function of two variables near a non-degenerate critical point are of class C [s/2] and apply this to the study of planar sections of surfaces close to the singular section by the tangent plane at an elliptic or hyperbolic point, and in particular at an umbilic point. We go on to use the results to study symmetry sets of the planar sections. We also analyse one of the cases coming from a degenerate critical point, corresponding to an elliptic cusp of Gauss on a surface, where the …
