Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of an on-chip polarizer and of methods of forming the polarizer. The polarizer includes first and second waveguides with different shapes at different design levels above a substrate. The first waveguide has a main body between an input end and an output end. The second waveguide is spiral in shape with an inner end and with an outer end that is evanescently coupled to the main body of the first waveguide. Light signals, including first light signals with a first type polarization and second light signals with a second type polarity, are received at the input end of the first waveguide. The first waveguide passes the first light signals to the output end and passes at least some second light signals out the main body and into the outer end of the second waveguide. The second waveguide attenuates the received second light signals.

Abstract: A driver circuit includes digital inputs, such as a first digital input and a second digital input. The digital inputs receive voltages at either a digital high-voltage or a digital low-voltage. The driver circuit has a clock input, an analog output, a first differential pair of transistors connected to the analog output, second differential pairs of transistors connected to the analog output, and voltage limiters connected to the clock input and the second differential pairs of transistors. The voltage limiters supply different voltages to the second differential pairs of transistors, which results in the second differential pairs of transistors providing analog signals to the analog output that are at different voltage steps at, and between, the digital high-voltage and the digital low-voltage.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cell that integrates a pixel and a three-terminal non-volatile memory device. The cell can be selectively operated in write, read and functional computing modes. In the write mode, a first data value is stored in the memory device. In the read mode, it is read from the memory device. In the functional computing mode, the pixel captures a second data value and a sensed change in an electrical parameter (e.g., voltage or current) on a bitline connected to the cell is a function of both the first and second data value. Also disclosed is an IC structure that includes an array of the cells and, when multiple cells in a given column are concurrently operated in the functional computing mode, the sensed total change in the electrical parameter on the bitline for the column is indicative of a result of a dot product computation.

Abstract: One optical antenna coupler includes a base body having a first waveguide and a second waveguide and a plurality of antenna coupler elements positioned above an upper surface of the base body that are adapted to be irradiated by an incident light. The plurality of antenna coupler elements includes at least one variable optical characteristics (VOC) antenna coupler element that comprises a VOC material, wherein the at least one VOC antenna coupler element is operatively coupled to a first energy source. The VOC antenna coupler element is adapted to be transitioned from a metallic state to an insulator state and vice versa. In the metallic state, substantially all of the incident light is directed out of the optical antenna coupler via the first waveguide and, in the insulator state, substantially all of the incident light is directed out of the optical antenna coupler via the second waveguide.

Abstract: Optical coupler structures include a waveguide having waveguide metamaterial segments aligned along a first line. A second insulator is on the first insulator and the waveguide metamaterial segments. A coupler structure is in the second insulator and has coupler metamaterial segments aligned along a second line. The first line and the second line are parallel and within a plane. A portion of the waveguide overlaps a portion of the coupler structure. The waveguide metamaterial segments intersect the plane and have first widths perpendicular to the plane, and the first widths have a first taper along the first line. The coupler metamaterial segments intersect the plane and have second widths in the direction perpendicular to the plane. The second widths have a second taper along the second line that is different from the first taper of the first widths where the waveguide overlaps the coupler structure.
