Abstract
We present a CMOS-fabricated photonic integrated circuit tailored to the generation of ultrabroadband polarization-entangled photons. This fully on-chip source leverages a novel design combining polarization splitter-rotators and a bidirectionally pumped microring resonator to produce high-fidelity polarization Bell states over 115 frequency-bin pairs spaced 38.4 GHz apart.
