Abstract: A novel method for fabricating a micro-optics structure, having at least one lenslet array, is presented. A writing mask is provided being configured in accordance with an arrangement of the lenslet array to be manufactured. The writing mask is applied to a structure formed by a photosensitive layer of a predetermined thickness carried by a substrate, and the photosensitive layer is exposed through the writing mask using a predetermined spectral range of the exposure and a predetermined distance between the mask and said photosensitive layer, to thereby pattern the photosensitive layer through a diffractive optical element of said mask. The so-obtained pattern is in the form of optical nonhomogeneities in the photosensitive layer material, defining the lenslet array within the photosensitive layer.

Abstract: An optical coupler includes a plurality of tapers, each of the taper-bases arranged substantially in a first plane to form a base of the optical coupler for connecting to a first optical waveguide, and the taper-tips arranged substantially non-overlapping in a second plane corresponding to a coupling facet for coupling with a second optical waveguide. This multi-taper coupler overcomes the energy loss of conventional techniques, allowing optical coupling between a variety of optical devices including optical fibers, waveguides, diodes, and switches. The multi-taper has increased information transmission efficiency, reduced loss of signal strength between coupled products, and is more robust to damage of the coupler, and the coupling area is larger than conventional couplers thereby reducing coupling complexity and increasing coupling probability.

Abstract: A method for providing spectral and temporal stealthy information transmitted over an optical communication channel, according to which, at the transmitting side, the power spectral density of a pulse sequence bearing the information is reduced by encrypting the temporal phase of the pulse sequence. The power of the pulse sequence is spread in the frequency domain, to be below the noise level, by sampling the pulse sequence. Spectral phase encoding is used to temporally spread the pulse sequence and to prevent coherent addition of its spectral replicas in frequency domain. The resulting signal, encrypted both in time and frequency domains, is then transmitted. Spectral phase decoding is performed at the receiving side by performing coherent detection and folding all the spectral replicas of the transmitted signal to the baseband by means of sampling. The temporal phase of the signal is decrypted and the information which is delivered by the pulse sequence is decoded.

Abstract: A device for use in optical signal control is presented. The device comprises an amplification waveguide, including a pumpable medium, and a reference and a control inputs and an output selectively allowing transmission of light respectively into and out of said amplification waveguide. The reference input, the amplification waveguide and the output define together a transmission scheme for reference light through the pumpable medium. The control input and the amplification waveguide define a depletion scheme for the pumpable medium and control light. The device thus allows for controlling an output signal, formed by the transmission of the reference light, by controllable depletion of the pumpable medium.
