  • Nonreciprocal light propagation systems and methods
    Patent number: 10503048
    Abstract: An optical resonator system comprises an optical resonator (30) and means (32, 42, 44) for coupling into the resonator counterpropagating waves at total intensities such as to produce a non-linear interaction between the first and second waves whereby to break the symmetry to establish different resonant frequencies between the first and second counterpropagating waves whereby to produce different optical effects in the opposite directions. A common light source, e.g. a laser 32, is employed with an amplifier 40 and a modulator 50, or different light sources can be employed.
    Type: Grant
