The ability to generate and manipulate photon
s with high efficiency and coherence is of critical importance for both fu
ndamental quantum optics studies and practical device applications. Howeve
r mainstream integrated photonic platforms such as those based on silicon
and silicon nitride lack the preferred cubic c(2) nonlinearity\, wh
ich limits active photon control functionalities. In this talk\, I will pr
esent integrated photonics based on aluminum nitride (AlN) and lithium nio
bite (LN)\, whose non-centrosymmetric crystal structures give rise to the
strong second-order optical nonlinearity. Together with their low optical
loss\, the integrated AlN and LN photonics can provide enhanced
