| Summary: | As photonic integrated circuits (PICs) gain prominence in quantum communication and quantum computation, the development of efficient and stable cryogenic packaging technologies becomes paramount. This paper presents a robust and scalable cryogenic packaging method for thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic chips. The packaged fiber-to-chip interface shows a coupling efficiency of 15.7% ± 0.3%, with minimal variation of ±0.5% as the temperature cools down from 295 K to 1.5 K. Furthermore, the packaged chip exhibits outstanding stability over multiple thermal cycling, highlighting its potential for practical applications in cryogenic environments. |
