Digital Optical Circuit Technology
Description:... These Proceedings for the 48th Meeting of the AGARD Avionics Panel contain the 18 papers presented, a Technical Evaluation Report, and discussions that followed the presentations of papers. Seven papers were presented in the session devoted to optical bistability. Optical logic was addressed by three papers. The session on sources, modulators and demodulators presented three papers. Five papers were given in the final session on all optical systems. The purpose of this Specialist's Meeting was to present the research and development status of digital optical circuit technology and to examine its relevance in the broad context of digital processing, communication, radar, avionics and flight control systems implementation. Keywords include: Digital data processing, Digital optics, Electro-optics, Integrated optics, Optical bistability, Optical computer, Optical demodulators, Optical detectors, Optical devices, Optical logic, Optical modulators, Optical sources, Optical waveguides, and Parallel processing.
