Journal ArticleDOI
Guided wave optics
H.F. Taylor,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the theory of dielectric waveguide modes is reviewed, and the topics of directional coupling, input-output coupling, modulation, and distributed feedback laser sources are treated on the basis of coupled-mode theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of the linewidth enhancement factor α of semiconductor lasers
TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of the amplitude and phase modulation characteristic of a single mode semiconductor laser is presented, where the amplitude modulation couples through the complex susceptibility of the gain medium to the phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real‐time image processing via four‐wave mixing in a photorefractive medium
Jeffrey O. White,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear optical processor using a photorefractive medium Bi12SiO20 and demonstrated that it is capable of convolving and correlating objects with spatial information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmission and group delay of microring coupled-resonator optical waveguides.
TL;DR: The transmission and group delay of microring coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs) was measured and it was found that the CROWs had a delay of 110-140 ps and a slowing factor of 23-29 over a 17 GHz bandwidth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum noise and dynamics in quantum well and quantum wire lasers
TL;DR: In this paper, the relaxation oscillation corner frequency fr and linewidth enhancement factor alpha for both a quantum well and a quantum wire semiconductor laser were calculated and compared to those of a conventional double heterostructure device.
