Radial bragg ring resonator
Jacob Scheuer,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a closed loop resonator with a distributed Bragg reflector is proposed to confine the light within the guiding core, which can be used in various applications such as optical filters, lasers, modulators, spectrum analyzers, wavelockers, interleave filters, and optical add drop multiplexers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active coupled-resonator optical waveguides. I. Gain enhancement and noise
Joyce K. S. Poon,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a tight-binding formalism to analyze the effect of resonant gain enhancement and spontaneous emission noise in amplifying coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs).
Patent
Method of manufacturing a distributed light emitting diode flat-screen display for use in televisions
TL;DR: In this paper, a display screen structure and a method of manufacturing such screens for use, for example, in large screen television displays is presented. But the process of the present invention is one which can be accomplished with no new materials, no critical geometric requirements such as critical separations and alignments and only low voltage drivers.
Journal ArticleDOI
New photorefractive mechanism in centrosymmetric crystals: A strain-coordinated Jahn-Teller relaxation.
TL;DR: Observations and an explanation of a photorefractive effect in strained centrosymmetric KTN and KLTN crystals in the absence of an externally applied electric field are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical pulse propagation in the tight-binding approximation
Shayan Mookherjea,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: The equations describing pulse propagation in a one-dimensional optical structure described by the tight binding approximation, commonly used in solid-state physics to describe electrons levels in a periodic potential, are formulated.
