Observations of delayed all-optical routing in a slow-light regime

All-optical slow-light on a photonic chip.

We demonstrate optically tunable delays in a silicon-on-insulator planar waveguide based on slow light induced by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). Inside an 8-mm-long nanoscale waveguide, we produce a group-index change of 0.15 and generate controllable delays as large as 4 ps for signal pulses as short as 3 ps. The scheme can be implemented at bandwidths exceeding 100 GHz for wavelengths spa...

gradual erasure of subjectivity: a study of samuel beckett’s trilogy in the light of postmodernism

ساموئل بکت بیشتر از هر نویسنده دیگری در نیم? دوم قرن بیستم با گفتارش زمان? ما را به آستان? از هم پاشیدگی کشانده است، آستانه ای که در آن مدرنیته با سرانجام گریزان اما غیرقابل اجتناب خود مواجه می شود. در این تحقیق روی مفهوم فردیت و محو آن در دوران پسامدرن تاکید شده و در طی آن سعی شده است که فردیت مدرن و پسامدرن در رمان های سه گانه بکت بررسی گردد. تحقیق حاضر یک بررسی کتابخانه ای و کیفی بر روی سه ر...

Numerical study of all-optical slow-light delays via stimulated Brillouin scattering in an optical fiber

We study numerically all-optical slow-light delays in room-temperature single-mode optical fibers induced by stimulated Brillouin scattering. We consider the propagation of a pulse through a cw-pumped Brillouin fiber amplifier, where the carrier frequency of the pulse is tuned near the Stokes resonance. Pulse delay and broadening of the Stokes pulse are studied in the small-signal and gain-satu...

Slow Light in Optical Fibers

Slow Light in Optical Waveguides

As evidenced by this Volume, there has been a flurry of activity over the last decade on tailoring the dispersive properties of optical materials [1]. What has captured the attention of the research community were some of the early results on creating spectral regions of large normal dispersion [2–4]. Large normal dispersion results in extremely small group velocities, where the group velocity ...
