bacteriorhodopsin (br) is the light harvesting and photoactive proton pump found in the membrane of a salt marsh bacteria. this protein has significant potential to use in optical computing and memory devices due to unique intrinsic physical properties of photo and bioelectric. all these features make br one of the most promising protein candidates in protein memories. protein memory is a kind ...

We propose a volatile static all-optical memory capable of storing phase information slowly-varying electric field. The scheme and its realization (a circuit) are based on two mutually coupled lasers subject to external optical injection. proposed circuit has single input for write hold operations opposite-sign outputs reading the memory. operates with wavelength light, direction propagation, w...

The combination of the integrated waveguide and phase-change materials (PCMs) provides a promising platform for reconfigurable multifunctional photoelectric devices. Through plasmonic enhancement low loss propagation waveguide, footprint power consumption device can be effectively improved. In this work, metal double-ring structure embedded with phase change was proposed to utilize effect light...
