The project aims to develop practical on-chip photonic isolators – one-way optical circuits – by harnessing light–sound interactions in a nanoscale platform novel in its materials, design and mechanism. The project should develop new nanofabrication techniques and transform understanding of the physics of one-way photonic processes. Expected outcomes include enhanced design and fabrication capabilities for photonic circuits, ultra-compact, high-performance optical isolators and circulators that shield sensitive optical components, and a suite of theoretical tools for describing propagation and noise in these devices. These new high performance photonic circuits should benefit telecommunications, radar, defence, and sensing applications.

该项目旨在开发实用的片上光子隔离器-单向光路-通过利用材料，设计和机制新颖的纳米级平台中的光-声相互作用。该项目将开发新的纳米纤维技术，并改变对单向光子过程物理学的理解。预期成果包括增强光子电路的设计和制造能力，超紧凑，高性能的光隔离器和环行器，屏蔽敏感的光学元件，以及一套理论工具，用于描述这些设备中的传播和噪声。这些新的高性能光子电路应该有利于电信，雷达，国防和传感应用。
