  4. 3. ALL-OPTICAL CONTROL OF MOLECULAR FUNCTIONS - ENERGY TRANSFER SWITCHING AND INFORMATION PROCESSING

    Författare :Magnus Bälter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; white-light generation; molecular logic; spiropyran; photochromism; DNA-binding; diarylethene; energy transfer; all-photonic; fulgimide; dithienylethene; photoswitch; fluorescence modulation;

    Sammanfattning : In this work, the photoswitching of molecular systems endowed with photochromic functionality have been investigated for the reversible photonic gating of excitation energy transfer (FRET) reactions as well as in application for all-photonic molecular logic. The presented systems involves the integration of photochromic entities within both covalent and non-covalent designs and serves to implicate photonic switching of molecular level phenomena. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The interaction of light and magnetism in the TbxCo100-x system

    Författare :Agne Ciuciulkaite; Vassilios Kapaklis; Pablo Maldonado; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetism; rate-earth transition metal alloys; light-magnetism interaction; all-optical switching; Fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Development of the faster and denser magnetic memory storage elements has been an active area of research since early 20th century. The path of research on magnetization manipulation began with firstly changing the magnetization state of a medium in an external magnetic field, then heating of a medium and magnetizing with a permanent magnet was explored, while the latest efforts have been focused on switching the magnetization only by a polarized laser light.

  7. 5. Design, analysis and simultion for optical access and wide-area networks

    Författare :Jiajia Chen; Lena Wosinska; Hussein Mouftah; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fiber access networks; passive optical network; dynamic bandwidth allocation; reliability; switched optical networks; switching node; optical circuit switching; optical packet switching; routing and wavelength assignment; security; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the tremendous growth of traffic volume caused by both exponential increase of number of Internet users and continual emergence of new bandwidth demanding applications, high capacity networks are required in order to satisfactorily handle the extremely large amount of traffic. Hence, optical fiber communication is the key technology for the network infrastructure. LÄS MER
