Abstract:To facilitate the implementation of large scale photonic quantum walks, we have developed a polymer waveguide platform capable of robust, polarization insensitive single mode guiding over a broad range of visible and nearinfrared wavelengths. These devices have considerable elasticity, which we exploit to enable tuning of optical behaviour by precise mechanical deformations. In this work, we investigate pairs of beamsplitters arranged as interferometers. These systems demonstrate stable operation over a wide r… Show more
