Electro-optic transducer with integrated optical delay line

A method for transmissively coupling a pair of devices, the method comprising:

• inputting an optical pump input through an optical pump waveguide to a resonator assembly, wherein the resonator assembly comprises a microwave resonator and an optical resonator, and wherein the optical pump waveguide comprises a delay portion that delays receipt of the optical pump input to the resonator assembly through the optical pump waveguide to a time after reduction of a majority of decoherence of the resonator assembly caused by a scattering of a portion of the optical pump input, wherein the portion does not enter the optical pump waveguide;
• and
• transmitting through an optical signal waveguide, separate from the optical pump waveguide, an optical signal at least one of to or from the resonator assembly.

An electronic system, comprising:

• a first transducer comprising:
• a first resonator assembly comprising a first microwave resonator and a first optical resonator, and
• a first optical pump waveguide configured to transmit only first optical pump inputs to the first resonator assembly, wherein the first optical pump waveguide comprises a first delay portion that delays receipt of a first optical pump input of the first optical pump inputs to the first resonator assembly through the first optical pump waveguide to a first time after reduction of a majority of decoherence of the first resonator assembly caused by a scattering of a portion of the first optical pump input, wherein the portion of the first optical pump input does not enter the first optical pump waveguide.
