Photonic crystal chips for optical interconnects and quantum information processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We have recently demonstrated a number of functional photonic crystals devices and circuits, including an ultrafast, room temperature, low threshold, nanocavity laser with the direct modulation speed approaching 1 THz, an all-optical switch controlled ...

All-Optical Switch Based on a Fiber-Chip-Fiber Opto-Mechanical System With Ultrahigh Extinction Ratio

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
We propose and experimentally demonstrate an all-optical switch based on a fiber-chip-fiber opto-mechanical system driven by thermal radiation. The two optical fibers are both designed as movable cantilever structures with a free-hanging length.

Nonlinear optical switching matrix

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2003
We show that nonlinear directional couplers with variable coupling coefficients can be used to compose a special kind of switching matrix. The switching matrix can be controlled by the signal itself or by a strong pump. Light routing is realized by adjustment of the power of the signal or the pump.

Controlling the phase of a light beam with a single molecule

open access: yes, 2011
We employ heterodyne interferometry to investigate the effect of a single organic molecule on the phase of a propagating laser beam. We report on the first phase-contrast images of individual molecules and demonstrate a single-molecule electro-optical ...

Coexistence of Josephson oscillations and novel self-trapping regime in optical waveguide arrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Considering the coherent nonlinear dynamics between two weakly linked optical waveguide arrays, we find the first example of coexistence of Josephson oscillations with a novel self-trapping regime.

Equivalent random analysis of a buffered optical switch with general interarrival times [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We propose an approximate analytic model of an optical switch with fibre delay lines and wavelength converters by employing Equivalent Random Theory. General arrival traffic is modelled by means of Gamma-distributed interarrival times.

Switching of three-dimensional optical cages using spatial coherence engineering

open access: yesAPL Photonics
Precisely capturing and manipulating microparticles is the key to exploring microscopic mysteries. Optical tweezers play a crucial role in facilitating these tasks. However, existing optical tweezers are limited by their dependence on specific beam modes,

Design of Optical Tunnel Switching Networks for Big Data Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In this paper, we proposed large-scale optical tunnel switching networks based on the Torus topology network with WSS (Wavelength Selective Switch) for future big data applications.

Crosstalk-free Conjugate Networks for Optical Multicast Switching

open access: yes, 2006
High-speed photonic switching networks can switch optical signals at the rate of several terabits per second. However, they suffer from an intrinsic crosstalk problem when two optical signals cross at the same switch element.
