The fabrication and performance of guided wave components are considered, taking into account the development of a tantalum pentoxide Luneberg lens, the fabrication and performance of diffraction lenses, a heterodyne receiver on silicon, the use of laser annealing to achieve low loss in optical thin film waveguides, and integrated optical circuits fabricated with laser-written masks. Other topics discussed are related to modulation and switching techniques, III-V sources and detectors, and guided wave systems for communications and signal processing. Attention is given to integrated optical logic devices, progress on electrooptical integrated optic devices, a picosecond transient digitizer for optical pulse analysis, transient response of nonlinear ring resonators using GaAs with photon energy below band gap, high power single-mode AlGaAs laser diodes, the reliability of fiber optic emitters, tunneling in the reverse dark current characteristic of Be-implanted GaAlAsSb avalanche photodetectors, single-mode fiber systems for the deep space communication network, a phase-nulling fiber optic gyro development review, and an advanced integrated optic RF spectrum analyzer.
