  • Methods and systems for delaying optical waves
    Patent number: 9341782
    Abstract: Coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROW) can be used to control a speed of an optical signal. In particular, the coupling distance between the resonators can be adjusted to precisely control a group delay of an optical wave. Systems and methods are described to control such coupling distance in a CROW.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 16, 2015
    Date of Patent: May 17, 2016
    Assignee: CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
    Inventors: Hsi-Chun Liu, Amnon Yariv
