Calculations of nonlinear TE waves guided by thin dielectric films bounded by nonlinear media
Colin T. Seaton,J. D. Valera,Richard L. Shoemaker,George I. Stegeman,John Chilwell,Stanley Desmond Smith +5 more
TL;DR: The dispersion relations for TE polarized waves guided by thin dielectric (planar integrated optics) films, surrounded on one or both sides by media with intensity-dependent refractive indexes, are solved numerically and interpreted in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron-beam-tunable interference filter spatial light modulator.
TL;DR: In this article, a new type of electron-beam-addressed spatial light modulator has been demonstrated, based on the local tuning of an optothermal nonlinear interference filter by the scanned electron beam.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical bistability, photonic logic, and optical computation.
TL;DR: This paper presents new results and reviews the latest state of research in all-optical nonlinear logic switches, amplifiers, and memories, and describes optical circuit elements that perform the logic functions of the electronic computer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remote sounding of atmospheric temperature from satellites IV. The selective chopper radiometer for Nimbus 5
P. G. Abel,P.J. Ellis,John Theodore Houghton,G. E. Peckham,Clive D. Rodgers,Stanley Desmond Smith,E. J. Williamson +6 more
TL;DR: An improved version of the selective chopper radiometer which has successfully flown for three years on the Nimbus 4 satellite has been built for the NN 5 satellite which was launched in December 1972 as mentioned in this paper.
