    摘要: Various embodiments of the present invention are related to microresonator systems and to methods of fabricating the microresonator systems. In one embodiment, a microresonator system comprises a substrate having a top surface layer and at least one waveguide embedded in the substrate and positioned adjacent to the top surface layer of the substrate. The microresonator system also includes a microresonator having a top layer, an intermediate layer, a bottom layer, a peripheral region, and a peripheral coating. The bottom layer of the microresonator is attached to and in electrical communication with the top surface layer of the substrate. The microresonator is positioned so that at least a portion of the peripheral region is located above the at least one waveguide. The peripheral coating covers at least a portion of the peripheral surface and has a relatively lower index of refraction than the top, intermediate, and bottom layers of the microresonator.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to mixed-scale electronic interfaces, included in integrated circuits and other electronic devices, that provide for dense electrical interconnection between microscale features of a predominantly microscale or submicroscale layer and nanoscale features of a predominantly nanoscale layer. The predominantly nanoscale layer, in one embodiment of the present invention, comprises a tessellated pattern of submicroscale or microscale pads densely interconnected by nanowire junctions between sets of parallel, closely spaced nanowire bundles. The predominantly submicroscale or microscale layer includes pins positioned complementarily to the submicroscale or microscale pads in the predominantly nanoscale layer. Pins can be configured according to any periodic tiling of the microscale layer.
