Integrated electro-optic devices for classical and quantum microwave photonics

A device comprising:

• a waveguide;
• a first resonator;
• a second resonator, the second resonator optically coupled to the first resonator and to the waveguide;
• a first pair of electrodes, the first pair of electrodes disposed along one of the first or second resonator with at least a portion of said one of the first or second resonator disposed between the first pair of electrodes;
• a microwave source electrically coupled to the first pair of electrodes;

A method of light storage, comprising:

• receiving an optical mode on a waveguide, wherein
• the waveguide is optically coupled to a first resonator;
• applying a microwave field to a first pair of electrodes, thereby coupling the first resonator to a second resonator, wherein
• the first pair of electrodes is disposed along one of the first or second resonator with at least a portion of said one of the first or second resonator disposed between the first pair of electrodes.

A method of electro-optic modulation, comprising:

• receiving an optical mode on a waveguide, wherein
• the waveguide is evanescently coupled to a first resonator,
• the first resonator is evanescently coupled to a second resonator;
• applying a microwave field to a first pair of electrodes, thereby modulating the optical mode, wherein
• the first pair of electrodes disposed along one of the first or second resonator with at least a portion of said one of the first or second resonator disposed between the first pair of electrodes;
