    Abstract: A laser ray wavelength modification apparatus that includes a semiconductor laser element, a fundamental wave light reflecting element, a wavelength modification element, a selective reflection member and a dichroic mirror. The selective reflection member permits fundamental wave light among light rays emitted from the wavelength modification element to pass through to the fundamental wave light reflecting element while reflecting the wavelength modification light. The dichroic mirror is arranged between the semiconductor laser element and the wavelength modification element. The dichroic mirror transmits the fundamental wave light and removes by reflection out the wavelength modification light.

    Abstract: A method of forming a buried oxide/crystalline III-V semiconductor dielectric stack is presented. The method includes providing a substrate and forming a layered structure on the substrate comprising of layers of different materials, one of the different materials is selected to be an oxidizable material to form one or more buried low index oxide layers. A first sequence of oxidizing steps are performed on the layered structure by exposing the edges of the layered structure to a succession of temperature increases in the presence of steam from an initial temperature to the desired oxidation temperature for a time interval equal to the sum of the time intervals of the succession of temperature increases. Also, the method includes performing a second sequential oxidizing step with steam on the layered structure at the specific oxidation temperature for a specific time interval. Furthermore, the method includes performing a final sequence of oxidizing steps on the structure by ramping down from the desired oxidation temperature to a final temperature when the oxidizing material is completely oxidized to form the one or more buried low index oxide layers.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a reflective spatial light modulator enabling improvement of light resistance and prevention of damaging of the liquid crystal layer. The reflective spatial light modulator controls phases of the incident light and a reflected light while reflecting light made incident from a front side, and comprises a liquid crystal layer, a dielectric multilayer film, and a phase shift layer. The liquid crystal layer is filled with a liquid crystal comprised of a light modulating material, and modulates the incident light. The dielectric multilayer film reflects the incident light. The phase shift layer is disposed between the liquid crystal layer and the dielectric multilayer film to shift phases of the incident light and the reflected light at an interface of the liquid crystal layer.

    Abstract: A new reconfigurable cascadable all-optical on-chip device is presented. The gate operates by combining the Vernier effect with a novel effect, the gain-index lever, to help shift the dominant lasing mode from a mode where the laser light is output at one facet to a mode where it is output at the other facet. Since the laser remains above threshold, the speed of the gate for logic operations as well as for reprogramming the function of the gate is primarily limited to the small signal optical modulation speed of the laser, which can be on the order of up to about tens of GHz. The gate can be rapidly and repeatedly reprogrammed to perform any of the basic digital logic operations by using an appropriate analog optical or electrical signal at the gate selection port. Other all-optical functionality includes wavelength conversion, signal duplication, threshold switching, analog to digital conversion, digital to analog conversion, signal routing, and environment sensing. Since each gate can perform different operations, the functionality of such a cascaded circuit grows exponentially.
