Optics of photonic nanojets

Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2005
The detailed optics of photonic nanojets generated by normal plane-wave incidence on dielectric cylinders is discussed. These nanojets have a subwavelength beam waist and propagate with little divergence for several wavelengths. A physical explanation for this peculiar behavior is presented.

Acousto-optic photonic switch

Optics News, 1989
An acousto-optic architecture is presented to implement a nonblocking space-division switch with O(N) complexity. Signal degradation is minimal so that the switch is suitable for nonregenerative application within optical networks; it is also capable of rapid reconfiguration. Experiments for a 1 x 4 switch show an insertion loss ranging from 4.6 to 5.6

Optical Communication with Invisible Photons

The Rochester Conferences on Coherence and Quantum Optics and the Quantum Information and Measurement meeting, 2013
It has always been a self-evident and obvious feature of any kind of communication that there should be an exchange of objects like photons or electrons between the sender and the receiver to convey any information. In this chapter a protocol is presented in which information is transmitted between a sender and receiver with no particles in the ...

Optical nonlinearity in photonic glasses [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics, 2005
A brief review of optical nonlinearity in photonic glasses is given. For third-order nonlinearity, the relationship between two-photon absorption and nonlinear refractive index is considered using a formalism developed for crystalline semiconductors.
