Microresonators as Building Blocks for VLSI Photonics
The aim of the course was to provide state-of-the-art information in the field of advanced devices for large scale integrated photonics. The course focused on the theory and application of optical microresonators for wavelength selection and routing, for switching and for high-speed modulation. Also materials aspects, design and manufacturing of integrated optics devices based on these resonators for use in optical communication networks were discussed. In particular, micro-ring and...

The course was an initiative of the Next Generation Active Integrated Optical Subsystems, a consortium of 20 research groups from industrial and academic institutions across Europe that share knowledge and facilities. Providing current information on advanced devices for large scale integrated photonics, the 42 lectures focus on the theory and application of optical microresonators for wavelength selection and routing, for switching, and for high-speed modulation. Micro-ring and micro-disk resonators and photonic band-gap structures are highlighted. Also discussed are materials aspects, design, and manufacturing of integrated optics devices based on these resonators for use in optical communication networks. There is no subject index.
