动态光子结构的使用为控制光的性质开辟了迷人的新可能性。一般的想法是创建耦合谐振器阵列，使得光脉冲可以在结构中保持足够长的时间，并且当脉冲在系统中时调制系统的折射率。这样做可以使脉冲的光谱几乎任意地以小的折射率调制进行成型，从而在芯片上实现高度非平凡的信息处理能力。作为这种能力的例子，我们在这里展示了光脉冲可以通过这些动态系统停止，存储和时间反转。
The use of dynamic photonic structures opens fascinating new possibilities for controlling the properties of light. The general idea is to create a coupled resonator array such that a light pulse can be held in the structure for a sufficiently long time, and to modulate the refractive index of the system while the pulse is in the system. Doing so allows the spectrum of the pulse to be molded almost arbitrarily with small refractive index modulations, leading to highly nontrivial information‐processing capabilities on chip. As examples of such capabilities, here we show that light pulses can be stopped, stored, and time‐reversed with these dynamic systems.
