Integrated Micro-Ring Photonics Principles and Applications as Slow Light Devices Soliton Generation and Optical Transmission

Integrated Micro-Ring Photonics Principles and Applications as Slow Light Devices Soliton Generation and Optical Transmission

Micro-ring resonators (MRRs) are employed to generate signals used for optical communication applications where they can be integrated in a single system. These structures are ideal candidates for very large-scale integrated (VLSI) photonic circuits since they provide a wide range of optical signal processing functions while being ultra-compact. Soliton pulses have sufficient stability for preservation of their shape and velocity. Technological progress in fields such as tunable narrow band laser systems multiple transmission and MRR systems constitute a base for the development of new transmission techniques. Controlling the speed of a light signal has many potential applications in fiber optic communication and quantum computing. The slow light effect has many important applications and is a key technology for all optical networks such as optical signal processing. Generation of slow light in MRRs is based on the nonlinear optical fibers. Slow light can be generated within the micro-ring devices which will be able to be used with the mobile telephone. Therefore the message can be kept encrypted via quantum cryptography. Thus perfect security in a mobile telephone network is plausible. This research study involves both numerical experiments and theoretical work based on MRRs for secured communication. | Integrated Micro-Ring Photonics Principles and Applications as Slow Light Devices Soliton Generation and Optical Transmission

Problem-Solving Exercises in Green and Sustainable Chemistry

Problem-Solving Exercises in Green and Sustainable Chemistry

When confronted with a problem in science the way to proceed is not always obvious. The problem may seem intractable or there may be many possible solutions with some better than others. Problem-Solving Exercises in Green and Sustainable Chemistry teaches students how to analyze and solve real-world problems that occur in an environmental context and it encourages creativity in developing solutions to situations based on events that have actually taken place. The problems described in this book are relevant and stimulating in learning and understanding the principles of green and sustainable chemistry. They address various aspects of the field including: Toxicity Waste generation and disposal Chemical accidents Energy efficiency New policy development The final chapter contains proposed solutions to the presented problems and provides commentaries and references to relevant literature. This book also prompts students to become more comfortable with the idea of multiple correct answers to problems. It emphasizes the reality that green chemistry is about making practical decisions and weighing multiple factors that are often conflicting thus making it difficult or impossible to apply one perfect solution to a given situation. Problem-Solving Exercises in Green and Sustainable Chemistry prepares students to solve challenging problems whether as green chemists as architects designing energy-efficient buildings or as environmentally-conscious citizens.
