Спецвыпуск, посвященный фотонным интегральным схемам -Advanced photonic integrated circuits
Photonic integrated circuits use light rather than electrons to perform a wide variety of optical functions. Recent developments in nanostructures, metamaterials, and silicon technologies have expanded the range of possible functionalities for these highly integrated optical chips. We focus here on a selection of these, showing how fundamental work in areas such as transformation optics and materials technologies could lead to new functionality for photonic integrated circuits.
