Robust programmable PIC platform based on topological photonic insulator lattice
Hanfa Song, Vien Van · 2022 IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC) · 2022
We propose a robust programmable photonic integrated circuit platform based on a 2D Floquet topological microring lattice. The topological optical FPGA can realize general photonic circuits with fewer control elements than conventional waveguide networks while providing the advantage of robustness to random device variations.
