TL;DR: Thanks to the effective FWM in silicon nano-waveguide, a full set of the two-input logic minterms can be generated simultaneously, and arbitrary combinational logic functions are able to be realized by properly combining these minterms.

TL;DR: Four new types of dual microring resonators coupled via 3x3 couplers are proposed and a model for these four types is developed and analytical expressions for characterizing their transmissions are derived.

TL;DR: This study reviews the recent progress of multimode/multicore devices, which enable coupling, multiplexing/demultiplexing, transmitting switching, as well as modulation and detection, and a complete on-chip SDM system is constructed and discussed.

TL;DR: Dynamic characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers with certain facet reflection in different operation conditions are theoretically investigated with a detailed wideband model and it's indicated that the gain recovery time can be reduced to 50% of the initial value.

TL;DR: A reconfigurable photonic temporal differentiator based on a dual drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DDMZM) that can be reconfigured to different differentiation types by simply adjusting the bias voltage of DDMzM is proposed and demonstrated.
