AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The authors investigate a 1 × N free-space microoptical fiber switch for a large number of interconnects. The system to be studied is a reflective 4 f optical system. Alignment tolerances and coupling efficiency are investigated and the benefit brought by ...
This paper describes Si-micromachined two-axis beam- steering micromirrors and their performance in 256 x 256- and 1024 x 1024-port large optical cross-connects (OXCs). The high-reflectivity wavelength-independent mirrors are electrostatically actuated; ca ...
After microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices have been well established, components of higher complexity are now developed. Particularly, the combination with optical components has been very successful and have led to optical MEMS. The technology o ...
In this letter, we demonstrate the limitations for 1 × N free space optical switch with a moving macro-lens. We use a deformable mirror to overcome these limitations. The adaptive mirror corrects for the aberrations. Power coupling efficiencies between 6 a ...
A spectral collocation multi-domain scheme is developed for the accurate and efficient time-domain solution of Maxwell's equations within multi-layered diffractive optical elements. Special attention is being paid to the modeling of out-of-plane waveguide ...
A bulk GaN half-wave (lambda /2) cavity is grown on Si(Ill) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. It is embedded between twelve AlN/(Al,Ga)N quaterwave stacks and the silicon substrate, which acts as a metallic bottom mirror in the investigated wavelength r ...
We study the interaction of a mode propagating in a planar waveguide with a three dimensional rectangular defect (protrusion or notch) in the structure. The scattering by the defect disturbes the propagation of the mode and light is coupled out of the wave ...
A monolithic silicon integrated optical micro-scanner is presented. The device consists of a mirror located on the tip of a thermal bimorph actuator beam. The fabrication process is very simple and compatible with IC fabrication techniques. The device is e ...
The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of the chromoionophoric poly(methyl methacrylate-co-N-(9-[10-methacryloylmethyl]anthrylmethyl)monoaza-18-crown-6) (4) copolymer is described. Complexation of K+ by extraction from aqueous medium w ...
