ABSTRACT:
A high efficiency electro-optic dendrimer based technology for nanophotonic integrated circuit devices is presented. In particular, an electro-optic waveguide dendrimer for electro-optic sensor applications is implemented. A terahertz system for detecting and imaging objects is implemented using electro-optic dendrimer based terahertz emitters and probing sensors.
