Physically intuitive coupled-mode and equivalent electrical-circuit theories are described for synthesis of nanophotonic resonator/interferometer circuits, including a new phase law for general 4-ports. Synthesis of self-adaptive (highly-nonlinear) optomechanical systems based on light forces is introduced. ©2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (230.5750) Resonators; (120.2440) Filters; ...

We describe simulation and experimental results of gratings for coupling between optical fibers and nanophotonic waveguides. The coupling strength was engineered to obtained Gaussian-like output profile. 1.2dB coupling loss is achieved to single-mode fibers. Preliminary experimental result for coupling with vertical fiber with chirped grating gives a 3dB coupling loss.

We report 50 Gbit/s modulation capability using four silicon micro ring modulators within a footprint of 500 microm(2). This is the highest total modulation capability shown in silicon using compact micro-ring modulators. Using the proposed techniques, silicon nanophotonic bandwidths can meet the requirements of future CMOS interconnects by using multiple wavelengths to extend beyond single dev...

This review intuitively explains the fundamental trade-offs of repeated and equalized electrical interconnects for on-chip networks as referencing counterparts of emerging nanophotonic interconnects in terms of data rate density, energy per bit, and latency. We also review the current stateof-the-art electrical interconnects from literature.

We predict analytically and confirm with numerical simulations that intermode dispersion in nanowire waveguide arrays can be tailored through periodic waveguide bending, facilitating flexible spatiotemporal reshaping without breakup of femtosecond pulses. This approach allows simultaneous and independent control of temporal dispersion and spatial diffraction that are often strongly connected in...

the crystal structure of the title schiff base complex is obtained by single-crystal x-ray diffraction data.the solid state structure determination reveals that the coordination geometry around the copper(ii) center istetrahedrally distorted square-planar. the crystal packing shows one dimensional infinite chains which arisesfrom the intermolecular interaction and stabilize the crystal packing.
