Photonic filters are playing a very important role in many applications, including optical
interconnects as well as optical sensing. As silicon photonics has provided a very attractive …

Terahertz waves, which lie in the frequency range of 0.1-10 THz, have long been
investigated in a few limited fields, such as astronomy, because of a lack of devices for their …

Comb-based optical arbitrary waveform measurement (OAWM) techniques can overcome
the bandwidth limitations of conventional coherent detection schemes, thereby enabling …

In the paper, the spectrum sliced wavelength division multiplexed (SS-WDM) is proposed for
Free Space Optic (FSO) communication in the heavy rain weather of Changsha, China. The …

Future generations of optical networks will require optical interfaces that operate beyond 1
Tb/s to keep up with the exploding worldwide Internet data capacity. The data converters …

Next-generation high-capacity optical networks require flexible allocation of spectrum
resources, for which low-cost optical filters with an ultra-wide bandwidth tunability beyond …

Over the last decades, the annual global internet protocol (IP) traffic has been increasing at
an enormous rate and is going to further increase. Overall IP traffic will grow at a compound …

This paper discusses prospects and challenges of optical networking designed to meet
exponentially growing demands of data traffic. We discuss both intra and inter data-center …

This article discusses prospects and challenges of software defined elastic optical
networking for grid and cloud computing environments. We exploit OpenFlow-based unified …

We implement an optical arbitrary-waveform generator (OAWG) that relies on spectrally
sliced signal synthesis with well-defined feedback-stabilized phase relations. We …
