Nanotechnology in Photonics -Routing Information at the speed of light

MONISH

Page 2: Nanotechnology in photonics

Why photonics????

Page 3: Nanotechnology in photonics

•Transmit information at the speed of light through photonics communication

•To sort out the monstrous network of waves and cables

Page 4: Nanotechnology in photonics

Basic networking system

Page 5: Nanotechnology in photonics

Creating Nano size IDs(Encoding)•Photons are waves(Plank’s theory)

•Only 1500nm wavelength is allowed in optical communication

Page 6: Nanotechnology in photonics

Some insight…

•Photonic band gap

Page 7: Nanotechnology in photonics

Nano lasers(Amplification)

•Using photonic band gap as optical cavity, high gain coherent beam is generated

Page 8: Nanotechnology in photonics

Optical switching(Router)•Ring-router

Page 9: Nanotechnology in photonics

Switching mechanism• There are two beams we have to keep track of-

The signal beam (the one that either gets blocked or passed through the router).

A switch beam (The one that turns the ring router on and off).

Mirrors (versatile routers)•When we change the direction that mirror faces, we change the direction that the information flows.

• The following figure shows a fairly tiny mechanical solution: 256 mirrors on a few square cm of Silicon

Page 11: Nanotechnology in photonics

Light steering: Nanotechnology at the wheel

• To tightly regulate the angle of a mirror on the nano scale, electrostatic force is used

Page 12: Nanotechnology in photonics

Applications•On –Chip data communication

•Medical diagnostics

• Fusion energy

• Laser defense

Page 13: Nanotechnology in photonics

CONCLUSION•Sending information at the speed of light is POSIBBLE through Photonics Communication using Nanotechnology as a tool.
