Hybrid InGaAsP-InP Mach-Zehnder racetrack resonator for thermooptic switching and coupling control [PDF]
An InGaAsP-InP optical switch geometry based on electrical control of waveguide-resonator coupling is demonstrated. Thermooptic tuning of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer integrated with a racetrack resonator is shown to result in switching with ON-OFF ...

16 × 16 non-blocking silicon optical switch based on electro-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometers.
We experimentally demonstrate a 16 × 16 non-blocking optical switch fabric with a footprint of 10.7 × 4.4 mm2. The switch fabric is composed of 56 2 × 2 silicon Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs), with each integrated with a pair of TiN resistive micro ...

Two types of all-optical magnetization switching mechanisms using femtosecond laser pulses [PDF]
Magnetization manipulation in the absence of an external magnetic field is a topic of great interest, since many novel physical phenomena need to be understood and promising new applications can be imagined. Cutting-edge experiments have shown the capability to switch the magnetization of magnetic thin films using ultrashort polarized laser pulses.
