Optical Switch Conventional Wavelength Selective Switches (WSSs) steer light in one dimension. This fundamentally limits the number of output ports. A typical WSS has one input fibre, and multiple output fibres. Light is launched into free space from the input fibre, at the centre of a linear fibre...

Investigation of Optical Couplers for the Application in Optical Bus Systems for Autonomous Cars With more and more infotainment facilities and driving assistance systems in cars, there rises the demand of a large bandwidth of data communication and a low-cost data network for the communications...

Transparent Conductors(TC) for Middle Infrared(Mid-IR) Liquid Crystal Spatial Light Modulators (LC-SLM) In the Mid-IR(λ = 2 to 5 μm) range, LC-SLMs can offer a low-cost, non-mechanical and compact alternative to the gimbaled mirrors used currently for Mid-IR laser beam-steering. Unfortunately...

A High-Resolution Optically Addressed Spatial Light Modulator Based on ZnO Nanoparticles An optically addressed spatial light modulator (OASLM) can modulate the wavefront of a read light by displaying a phase pattern or a hologram configured by the intensity distribution of a write light. Using ZnO...
