A fully photonics-based coherent radar system

TL;DR: The proposed architecture exploits a single pulsed laser for generating tunable radar signals and receiving their echoes, avoiding radio-frequency up- and downconversion and guaranteeing both the software-defined approach and high resolution.

Programmable photonic signal processor chip for radiofrequency applications

TL;DR: This paper provides the first ever demonstration of the disruptive approach to tackle the need to provide photonic integrated circuits with equal levels of function flexibility as compared with their electronic counterparts, and shows that a programmable chip with a free spectral range of 14 GHz enables RF filters featuring continuous, over-two-octave frequency coverage.

Depletion-Layer Photoeffects in Semiconductors

TL;DR: The theory of photoconduction through the reverse-biased $p\ensuremath{-n$ junction in semiconductors is developed without the customary assumption that carrier generation in the junction depletion layer is negligible as discussed by the authors.
