Fano resonances in antennas: General control over radiation patterns
The concepts of many optical devices are based on the fundamental physical phenomena such as resonances. One of the commonly used devices is an electromagnetic antenna that converts localized energy into freely propagating radiation and vise versa ...

Solid and hollow whispering gallery mode resonators for all optical switch [PDF]
Whispering-gallery-modes resonators (WGMR) are effective switching devices when either coated or filled with non-linear material. We present examples of all-optical switching of hybrid WGM using polyfluorene, a methacrylate azobenzene and an acrylate ...

Fast polarization insensitive optical shutters using dual frequency liquid crystals [PDF]
Most of the existing displays and optical shutters based on liquid crystals work in combination with linear polarizers. This implies that often more than half of the light is lost due to optical loss in the polarizers and/or the fact that the incoming ...

Confinement Effects on the Crystalline Features of Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) [PDF]
Typical device architectures in polymer-based optoelectronic devices, such as field effect transistors organic light emitting diodes and photovoltaic cells include sub-100 nm semiconducting polymer thin-film active layers, whose microstructure is likely ...

Reconfigurable Electro-optic Logic Circuits Using Microring Resonator-Based Optical Switch Array
In this paper, we propose a reconfigurable electro-optic logic circuit, which can perform any combinatorial logic operations using a microring resonator (MRR)-based optical switching array.

Interaction-Free All-Optical Switching via Quantum-Zeno Effect
We propose a novel interaction-free scheme for all-optical switching which does not rely on the physical coupling between signal and control waves. The interaction-free nature of the scheme allows it to overcome the fundamental photon-loss limit imposed ...
