Title:
Nonlinear Optical Signal Processing in Optical Fibers and Waveguides
Presenter:
Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering UMBC
Abstract:
Advances in optical fiber and semiconductor technology have progressed to the degree that nonlinear optical signal processing
can be demonstrated at extraordinarly high data rates. In this talk I will review some of our work in photonic crystal fibers,
silicon nano wires, and AlGaAs optical waveguides.
