In the context of dynamic lightpath service provisioning, this paper evaluates the impact of
the colorless, directionless, and contentionless (CDC) features of reconfigurable optical …

Optical transport capacities have grown significantly in the last decade to meet the increased
demands on communications networks. This growth has been achieved both by increases in …

We describe a wide range of reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer architecture
designs that may be implemented in standard silica-on-silicon planar lightwave circuits. This …

The contention factor limits the extent to which lightpaths using the same wavelength can be
added/dropped in a Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) when it is …

In this work, colloidal suspensions are used as a precursor to the formation of layers of
optical quality glass on silicon substrates. The colloidal suspensions were made by …
