Optical solitons represent a unique phenomenon in nonlinear optics whereby light waves maintain their integrity over long distances by balancing dispersion with nonlinear effects. When these solitons ...

Defying conventional wisdom, researchers have uncovered a novel coupling mechanism involving leaky mode, previously has been considered unsuitable for high-density integration in photonic circuits.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The concepts of metamaterials and metasurfaces have spawned massive novel applications in free-space optics. However, recent research also indicates that they possess prominent ...

Comprised of judiciously engineered microscopic photonic structures with subwavelength features, the concept of metasurface and metamaterials have proven fruitful results in the realm of meta-optics.

A technical paper titled “Unlocking the monolithic integration scenario: optical coupling between GaSb diode lasers epitaxially grown on patterned Si substrates and passive SiN waveguides” was ...
