Optical spatial modulation design [PDF]
Visible light communication (VLC) systems are inherently signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) limited due to link budget constraints. One favourable method to overcome this limitation is to focus on the pre-log factors of the channel capacity. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques are therefore a promising avenue of research.

The design of an optical triode [PDF]
Under the action of pump light, the conventional photonic crystal can be turned into function photonic crystal. In the paper, we have designed optical triode with one-dimensional function photonic crystal, and analyzed the effect of period number, medium thickness and refractive index, incident angle, the irradiation way and intensity of pump light on ...

Optical interconnection networks based on microring resonators [PDF]
Optical microring resonators can be integrated on a chip to perform switching operations directly in the optical domain. Thus they become a building block to create switching elements in on-chip optical interconnection networks, which promise to overcome

Passive Athermal Optical Design Method Considering Thermal-Induced Surface Deformation
Temperature variation not only results in changes in refractive index, radius, thickness, and air space, but also leads to surface deformation due to the mismatch in thermal expansion coefficients between glass and mechanical materials. However, existing
