摘要:
A broadly tunable optomechanical apparatus includes a resonator component consisting of two coupled optical microring resonators disposed in a stacked relationship, an input waveguide disposed adjacent a periphery of the resonator component, and a control signal waveguide coupled to the resonator component or the input signal waveguide. A broadband optical switch includes a plurality of resonator components each of which corresponds to a selected signal wavelength, predetermined by the geometry and design of the resonator component, and a respective plurality of output signal waveguides, and a respective plurality of a control signal waveguides each coupled to a respective resonator component. Associated tuning and switching methods and applications are disclosed.

摘要:
A synchronizable optomechanical oscillator (OMO) network including at least two dissimilar silicon nitride (Si3N4) optomechanical resonators that can be excited to evolve into self-sustaining optomechanical oscillators (OMOs) coupled only through an optical radiation field. The tunability of the optical coupling between the oscillators enables one to externally control the dynamics and switch between coupled and individual oscillation states.
