  • Abstract
    We present device applications for Nano-Opto-Electro-Mechanical System (NOEMS) structures based on the evanescent-wave bonding acting on silicon slot-waveguide structures. Useful all-optical and electrooptical functionalities are proposed, including: phase modulation, polarization mode dispersion, near-field probing and reconfigurable optical delay.
