    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate generally to a circuit for sustaining an radio frequency (RF) modulated optical signal. The circuit may comprise a self injection locking component having a fiber optic delay line over which a portion of the optical signal propagates. The circuit may also comprise a self phase locked loop component having at least two fiber optic cables having different lengths and over which another portion of the optical signal propagates and a phase detector coupled to the at least two fiber optic cables and configured to determine a phase difference between the signals propagating over one of the respective fiber optic cables. The circuit may further comprise a voltage controlled oscillator configured to generate a stable oscillating signal in response to signals generated by each of the self injection locking and self phase locked loop components, the stable oscillating signal being configured to sustain the optical signal.

    Abstract: The present invention details fabrication guidelines of integrated optoelectronic oscillators with frequency and phase stability, having higher frequency selectivity in a relatively small size (compared to the larger size of a higher order electrically realized RF filter), reduced temperature sensitivity, and minimized frequency drift. The integrated photonic components and RF oscillator may use Silicon photonics and microelectronic integration using CMOS and BiCMOS technology, eliminating the need for bulky and/or discrete optical and microwave components.

    Abstract: A tunable multi-mode laser is configured to generate a multi-mode optical signal at a tuned wavelength. The laser includes a semiconductor optical gain region, a feedback region, and a phase modulation region between the gain and feedback regions. Each of the regions may be monolithically integrated. A feedback loop is coupled to the tunable laser to receive the optical signal and includes at least one delay line. The delay line may also be monolithically integrated. An output of the delay line is fed back to the tunable multi-mode laser in order to provide at least one of self-injection locking and self-phase locked looping for the multi-mode tunable laser. Each of the optical gain region and phase modulation region of the laser is biased by the output of the delay line in order to reduce phase drift of the optical signal.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a microelectromechanical switch including a first port (e.g., input port), one or more second ports (e.g., output ports), a cantilever beam, and a mechanical spring connected to the cantilever beam for providing a mechanical force to move the cantilever beam. The cantilever beam extends from a first end, which is in contact with either the first port or one of the second ports, to a second end that is switchably connectable to the other of the first port or said one of the second ports. The first and second ports and cantilever beam may be formed in a coplanar waveguide.
