We review performance measures and design trade-offs for optical receivers, involving the optimization of filter shapes and bandwidths.
Metal/metal oxide and metal/metal nitride thin-film composites (metal=In,Cu) have been prepared by reactive ion beam sputter deposition (RIBSD) and incorporated into antireflection trilayer structu
The optical writing characteristics of sputtered tellurium films are presented. We compare thin films sputtered in argon to those sputtered in an argon-hydrogen mixture.
Using two-photon excitation of Fluorescent indicator dyes, we measured calcium concentration transients in retinal ganglion and amacrine cells without destroying the light sensitivity of the retina
Vacuum sublimed thin films of the blue dye hydrogen phthalocyanine (H2Pc) were incorporated into various optical recording structures.
High power lasers and amplifiers for communication networks based on cladding pump fiber operate at unprecedented power levels.
The dominance of the fundamental mode in optical resonators with uniform reflectivity mirrors is due to the lowest diffraction loss of this mode.
In wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, the bandwidth request of a traffic stream can be much lower than the capacity of a lightpath.
This paper discusses and analyzes an optical metro ring network architecture with distance-adaptive coherent transceivers and formalizes the Routing, Modulation Level, and Spectrum Assignment (RMLS
The rapid evolution of lightwave technology into today's communication networks, military systems, and industrial applications has spawned a new generation of optical components.
