Abstract:

Ultra-small, ultra-low energy and ultra-fast SMZ-type all-optical analog switch, PC-SMZ and digital optical flip-flop, PC-FF, have been investigated by using GaAs-based photonic crystal (PC) waveguides and InAs-based quantum dots (QDs). For this purpose, a topology optimization design ...
