    摘要: Our invention relates generally to an optical switch (31) and an optical router (10) to rapidly route signals from particular channels (22, 24) within an optical band by using optical switches (20) which utilize a controlled whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonance of dielectric microspheres (S1, S2, S3) to optically switch signals. Another invention relates to optical filters which use a WGM resonate structure (150) to isolate and switch specific optical signals between waveguides (F1, F2). In other inventions, the filter (100) is switched “on/off” by signal loss within a WGM resonate structure (150) which disrupts the WGM resonance; the filter (100) isolates and switches a specific wavelength signal from among a group of signals of different wavelengths; and is switched “off” by adjusting the index of refraction of the resonate structure to become substantially similar to the index of refraction of the surrounding medium.

    摘要: An optical switch and optical router to rapidly (in the range of nanoseconds to picoseconds) route signals from particular channels within an optical band by using optical switches which utilize a controlled whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonance of dielectric microspheres to optically switch signal by virtue of their evanescent waves.

    摘要: The present invention relates generally to an apparatus and method to generate and control optical traps (1000, 1002) for manipulation of small particles. An upstream modification of an input laser beam (12, 22) provides a beam with a square or other preselected, cross section of intensity which can be used to form optical traps (1000, 1002) with a corresponding cross section of intensity.
