A solid core, multi-channel optical coupler comprising an elongate mixer body having an input end, an output end and sidewalls forming a length of the mixer body, where the input end is configured for coupling to a plurality of input channels providing an optical signal for transmission through the mixer body, and a plurality of output tapers coupled to the output end. Each of the output tapers has a reception area adjacent the output end of the mixer body for receiving a portion of the optical signal transmitted through the mixer body. Furthermore, the reception area of each output taper is variable to vary the intensity of the optical signal received by the output taper.

A light amplifying structure 100 for Raman spectroscopy includes a a resonant cavity 108. A distance between a first portion 102B and a second portion 102A of the structure 100 forming the resonant cavity 108 is used to amplify excitation light emitted from a light source 420 into the resonant cavity 108 at a first resonant frequency of the resonant cavity 108. Also, the resonant cavity 108 amplifies radiated light radiated from a predetermined molecule excited by the excitation light in the resonant cavity at a second resonant frequency of the resonant cavity 108.

An electrically actuated device comprises an active region (16) disposed between a first electrode (12) and a second electrode (14), a fixed dopant (24) distributed within the active region, and at least one type of mobile dopant situated near an interface between the active region and the second electrode.
摘要:
A system and methods for routing optical signals are disclosed. The system includes a first large core hollow waveguide having a reflective coating covering an interior of the waveguide and configured to guide a substantially collimated multi-mode coherent light beam. A second large core hollow waveguide with an interior reflective coating is coupled to the first waveguide with a coupling device. The coupling device is configured to redirect at least a portion of the coherent light beam from the first to the second waveguides through an optical path that is sufficiently short that a beam walk-off of the coherent light through the coupling device is less than half a width of the first large core hollow waveguide.

A circuit switched optical device includes a first array of intersecting hollow waveguides formed in a first plane of a substrate. A second array of intersecting hollow waveguides is formed in a second plane of the substrate, and the second plane is positioned parallel to the first plane. An optical element within the first array selectively redirects an optical signal from the first array to the second array.
