Extractions: Professor Denning said: "By analogy with electronics the complex optical systems required are called photonics, because they use photons in place of electrons but, because it is much harder to control the flow of light than an electrical current, their development has been slow. The outlook has recently been transformed by the invention of a new type of device, the photonic crystal. This acts like an optical insulator, and allows the components that handle optical data to be reduced to microscopic sizes. They can then be densely packaged like electronic circuits in a silicon chip. Unfortunately, the methods used for making electronic chips are not well suited to these new devices. Current manufacturing techniques can only create devices featuring 2-dimensional photonic crystals. However Professors Denning and Professor Turberfield, from the Chemistry and Physics Departments in Oxford, have now found a simple way of using a laser to make the perfectly regular microscopic patterns that are required for 3-dimensional photonic crystals. Their method creates a promising route towards the photonic systems of the future. Professor Denning said: 2-dimensional photonic crystal structures are easier to make, but diffraction at the edges of the holes that form the pattern leads to the loss of some light. Although this can be made quite small, it cannot be removed completely. In a 3-dimensional structure, confinement of the light is omnidirectional, so no losses can occur. Defining waveguides and cavities within a 3-dimensional structure makes much larger component densities possible, just like the advantage of a multilayer circuitboard over a single layer one.
What Is Photonic Computing, File 1 Of 3 Photonic computing uses photons of laser light to do the same job, When laserlight is directed through the resulting hologram, the light does exactly http://rmrc.org/photonics/photon1.htm
Extractions: The discussions in this section have been phrased so that both the novice and the expert can understand the principles involved. The novice will have to pay close attention so that a clear understanding comes through. The expert, however, must also pay close attention , even though much of what is taught is old hat, because we are accomplishing some very new things here. It's easy to slide over important points when reading too quickly. A missed point can even lead one to imagine that things that have been physically demonstrated in the lab, or are taught in texts that the reader may not be familiar with, are 'impossible'. We are presenting a step-by-step learning process for everyone on this road to the global conversion from electronics to photonics. Well, electronic computing uses electrons to perform the logic that makes computing work. Photonic computing uses photons of laser light to do the same job, only thousands of times faster. Electronic transistors are whittled into silicon wafers to make modern computer chips. Today's technology, however, is pushing the electron to its physical limits. As a result, the manufacturing processes are becoming increasingly expensive for producing even minor improvements. However, photons are manipulated using inexpensive computer-generated holograms made of plastic or glass. Photonic computers, therefore, will be far more valuable than their slower electronic counterparts, and far

Extractions: Electro-Optics Program Physics Department, San Diego State University Professor Jeffrey Davis - Director (619)-594-6158 - jdavis@sciences.sdsu.edu The Electro-Optics option at SDSU provides students with a B.S. or M.S. degree in physics with an emphasis in Electro-Optics. The program has been in existence since the early 1970's and has achieved national recognition at both the undergraduate and M.S. levels. Because you obtain a B.S. or M.S. degree in Physics, you will have all of the math and physics courses that are normally associated with these degrees. Note that SDSU does not offer a Ph.D. degree and consequently our B.S. and M.S. students can be assured of receiving all of our attention. The Electro-Optics option program consists of two lecture courses, a lab and a thesis project. An introductory lecture course provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of optics while an advanced lecture course covers specialized topics including laser physics, optical pattern recognition, and nonlinear optics. The laboratory forms the basic strength of the program and serves several purposes. Our main goal is to introduce students to several important topics that contain a lot of physics and are important in the discipline. We also help develop the student's abilities to work independently. Finally, formal reports are required for each experiment, allowing students to perfect their technical writing skills. Finally, each student is required to do a thesis.

Other courses with optics-related content Course numbering system In the Department of Electrical Engineering, the optics area is trans- disciplinary across several technical areas. Most, but not all, optics-related courses will have the middle digit of the course number as "1" (e.g. 716) , representing electromagnetics, or "3" (e.g. 731)representing Solid State and Physical Electronics. At Ohio State, courses beginning with "6" and "7" are open to both graduates and undergraduates, while course beginning with "8" or "9" are open only to graduate students. OSU is on the quarter system. Top Even/Odd courses : Some courses run only every other year. "Even autumn" would mean that course runs during autumn of an even-numbered year, e.g. 2004, 2006. The very next quarter would be an odd winter, e.g. winter 2005, 2007.

His goal with laser array is to combine the output of a number of a large number of fiber lasers to form a phase-locked laser array and to maintain a fix phase relation when the individual elements are subjected to random phase variations. With monolithic and miniature solid-state lasers, the goal is to develop miniature solid-state lasers using the simplest monolithic structure yet still capable of delivering intense short pulses with superior beam quality and spectral purity. The monolithic lasers typically consist of a single crystal with no moving parts or discrete optical components. A multifunction laser material performs the functions of the conventional laser cavity, including mode control, frequency control, polarization control and frequency selection.
