Optical signal processor

TL;DR: In this article, an analyte facilitates an energy transfer between an energy donor and an energy acceptor, where the interaction may include energy exchange mechanisms, such as Dexter energy transfer or the strong coupling effect.

TL;DR: In this article, an analyte may be determined by monitoring a change in an optical signal of a luminescent material (e.g., a particle) upon exposure to a analyte.

TL;DR: In this article, a packet controller for simultaneous processing of data packets transmitted via a plurality of communication channels is presented, such that each of the plurality of signals is indicative of a presence of a data packet on a respective one of the communication channels, a clock source to supply a periodic clock signal, and independent processing modules coupled to the respective plurality of inputs to simultaneously process the signals.

TL;DR: In this paper, a luminescent and/or optically absorbing compositions and precursors to those compositions, including solid films incorporating these compositions/precursors, exhibiting increased luminescence lifetimes, quantum yields, enhanced stabilities and amplified emissions.

TL;DR: A photonic Internet protocol (IP) routing is proposed in which the IP address, mapped onto optical code, is recognized by performing optical correlation in the time domain in a parallel manner to overcome the bottleneck in current electrical IP routers.

TL;DR: In this article, a data driven interferometric switch incorporating a semiconductor optical amplifier was used for 2/sup 31/-1 pattern lengths with switching powers of only 200 fJ. Error free operation was achieved for 2.80 Gbit/s all-optical regenerative wavelength conversion.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a hybrid WDM/CDMA hybrid code fiber optic communication device, which combines WDM with a form of space/time division multiplexing (matrix codes) applied to each data bit so that up to P channels can be defined and simultaneously used.

TL;DR: The asynchronous digital optical network is aimed to combine the advantages, and overcome the drawbacks, of existing approaches to photonic networking, based on digital optical transmission and processing, which offers the prospect of almost infinite scalability.
