Large-Scale Integrated Multi-Lines Optical Phased Array Chip
We design and integrate four optical phased arrays (OPAs) in a single chip. Each OPA possesses different output grating period. Furthermore, we use optical switches to select one or more OPAs for beam scanning. We demonstrate the longitudinal scanning by

Internally sensed optical phased array
Extending phased array techniques to optical frequencies is challenging because of the considerably smaller wavelengths and the difficulty of stabilizing the optical path lengths of multiple emitters to this level of precision. This is especially true under real-world conditions where thermal and vibrational disturbances cause path length variations ...

First Demonstration of Dynamic High-Gain Beam Steering With a Scanning Lens Phased Array
We report on the first demonstration of dynamic beam steering using a scanning lens phased array. A scanning lens phased array relies on a combination of mechanical and electrical phase shifting to dynamically steer a high-gain beam beyond the grating ...

Non-redundant optical phased array
Optical phased arrays (OPAs) are promising beam-steering devices for various applications such as light detection and ranging, optical projection, free-space optical communication, and optical switching. However, previously reported OPAs suffer from either an insufficient number of resolvable points, or complicated control requirements due to an ...

Design of a Low-Crosstalk Sub-Wavelength-Pitch Silicon Waveguide Array for Optical Phased Array
In this work, a compact sub-wavelength-pitch silicon waveguide array with low crosstalk is proposed and analyzed. The crosstalk is suppressed by periodic silicon nano-blocks symmetrically arranged along the silicon strip waveguides.
