All-optical switching in epsilon-near-zero asymmetric directional coupler

Jiaye Wu, Qian Li

We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating perform ...

Design Considerations and Performance Trade-Offs for 56Gb/s Discrete Multi-Tone Electrical Link

Yusuf Leblebici, Gain Kim, Thomas Toifl

For communicating over mid-to-long-reach electrical links at a data-rate above 56Gb/s, ADC-based receiver (RX) has become a dominant architecture due to its strong equalization capability using complex digital signal processing algorithm benefiting from th ...

Numerical approximation of cardiac electro-fluid-mechanical models

Antonello Gerbi

The mathematical modeling of the heart involves several challenges, which are intrinsically related to the complexity of its function. A satisfactory cardiac model must be able to describe a wide range of different processes, such as the evolution of the t ...

Internet advertising to recruit respondents for a web-based survey on the mobility of teenagers. Effectiveness in five European countries

Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Antoine Lohou

To study mobility behaviours and images of transport modes of teenagers in Europe, we organized a web-based survey in 2016. The population concerned is composed of teenagers (14-17 years old) living in five European countries (France, Germany, Great-Britai ...

A Full-Capacity Local Routing Architecture for FPGAs

Giovanni De Micheli, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Xifan Tang

Reconfigurable systems employ highly-routable local routing architecture to interconnect generic fine-grain logic blocks. Commercial FPGAs employ 50% sparse crossbars rather than fully-connected crossbars in their local routing architecture to trade off be ...

Large-Port-Count MEMS Silicon Photonics Switches

Niels Quack

Highly integrated optical circuit switch (OCS) with large port counts (~100x100) is achievable by combining silicon photonics and MEMS technologies. We will review the design trade-offs, performance scaling, and the current state of the art. ...
