Unconventional time-bandwidth performance of resonant cavities with nonreciprocal coupling

Camille Sophie Brès, Davide Grassani, Ivan Cardea, Kosmas Tsakmakidis

The time-bandwidth limit is a mathematical tenet that affects all reciprocal resonators, stating that the product of the spectral bandwidth that can couple into a resonant system and its characteristic energy decay time is always equal to 1. Here, we devel ...

Arbitrarily high time bandwidth performance in a nonreciprocal optical resonator with broken time invariance

Camille Sophie Brès, Hatice Altug, Davide Grassani, Simon Julien Fabbri, Ivan Cardea, Kosmas Tsakmakidis

Most present-day resonant systems, throughout physics and engineering, are characterized by a strict time-reversal symmetry between the rates of energy coupled in and out of the system, which leads to a trade-off between how long a wave can be stored in th ...

Overcoming the time-bandwidth limit

Camille Sophie Brès, Davide Grassani, Simon Julien Fabbri, Ivan Cardea, Kosmas Tsakmakidis

We are so accustomed to the time-bandwidth limit that we often take it to be a fundamental relation that cannot be overcome. Contrary to this belief we here propose that the storage/delay time of a system can in fact be decoupled from the operating bandwid ...

All-optical flip-flop based on dynamic Brillouin gratings

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Andrey Denisov

One of the most essential building blocks in modem electronics is the flip-flop. A flip-flop operates bi-stably between two states, remaining at a given output level (high or low level) until a specific input control signal changes. For many years, photoni ...
