Caltech scientists have developed a way to guide light on silicon wafers with low signal loss approaching that of optical ...

Comprised of judiciously engineered microscopic photonic structures with subwavelength features, the concept of metasurface and metamaterials have proven fruitful results in the realm of meta-optics.

The goal of using standard silicon-IC technology to create smaller, better, and possibly less-expensive yet highly sophisticated instrumentation is extending to the optical domain. There’s major ...

The tight integration of electronics and optical functions via silicon MEMS technology goes far beyond the simple combining of LEDs, phototransistors, and similar components. With the growth in links ...

Circuits that carry signals via visible and infrared light rather than electric currents are desirable for many applications because they transmit data faster and use less energy. The problem is that ...

Researchers have now achieved high-Q photonic flatbands that span the entire k-space of nonlocal metasurfaces and can be selectively tailored for linearly polarized or circularly polarized light, ...
