The past decade saw the emergence of new temperature sensors that have the potential to
disrupt a century-old measurement infrastructure based on resistance thermometry. In this …

A review of silicon photonics for space applications is presented. The benefits and
advantages of size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) metrics inherent to silicon photonics …

Whispering gallery mode (WGM) photonic thermometer had achieved ultra-high sensitivity
and resolution. However, while pursuing extremely high quality factor and thereafter high …

Fano resonance theoretically is an effective approach for sensitivity enhancement in
photonic sensing applications, but the reported methods suffer from complicated structure …

Reducing the form factor while retaining the radiation hardness and performance matrix is
the goal of avionics. While a compromise between a transistor's size and its radiation …

Optical single-event transients (OSETs) were measured for the first time in integrated silicon-
photonic waveguides. A custom test fixture and novel experimental setup were used at the …

Integrated photonics is poised to become a mainstream solution for high-speed data
communications and sensing in harsh radiation environments, such as outer space, high …

Photonic-based thermometers have been attracting intense research interest as a potential
alternative to traditional electrical thermometers due to their physical and chemical stability …

In this work, integrated silicon-photonic waveguides are exposed to ionizing radiation. A
microbeam X-ray source was utilized to deliver an isolated dose to a waveguide that …

We discussed the X-rays permanent radiation effects on a variety of passive components
developed using the silicon photonics platform of CEA-Leti. The objective is to assess the …
