1-Gb/s Transmission Over a Phosphorescent White LED by Using Rate-Adaptive Discrete Multitone Modulation

Arslan Khalid, G. Cossu, R. Corsini et al. · 26 Jul 2012

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which will be increasingly used in lighting technology, will also allow for distribution of broadband optical wireless signals. Visible-light communication (VLC) using white LEDs offers several advantages over the RF-based wireless systems, i.e., license-free spectrum, low power consumption, and higher privacy. Mostly, optical wireless can provide much higher data rates. In this…

Label-Free Biosensing With a Slot-Waveguide-Based Ring Resonator in Silicon on Insulator

Tom Claes, J.G. Molera, Katrien De Vos et al. · 1 Sep 2009

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> We present a slot-waveguide-based ring resonator in silicon on insulator (SOI) with a footprint of only <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$13\ \mu\hbox{m} \times 10\ \mu\hbox{m}$</tex></formula>, fabricated with optical lithography. Experiments show that it has 298 nm/RIU sensitivity and a detection limit of <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$4.2\cdot 10^{-5}\ \hbox{RIU}$</tex></formula> for changes in the refractive index of…

Metamaterials in the Terahertz Regime

Withawat Withayachumnankul, Derek Abbott · 1 Jul 2009

Metamaterials are artificial composites that acquire their electromagnetic properties from embedded subwavelength metallic structures. In theory, the effective electromagnetic properties of metamaterials at any frequency can be engineered to take on arbitrary values, including those not appearing in nature. As a result, this new class of materials can dramatically add a degree of freedom to…

Surface Plasmon Resonance Based Titanium Coated Biosensor for Cancer Cell Detection

Md. Asaduzzaman Jabin, Kawsar Ahmed, Md. Juwel Rana et al. · 26 Jun 2019

A new optimized bowl-shaped mono-core surface plasmon resonance based cancer sensor is proposed for the rapid detection of different types of cancer affected cell. By considering the refractive index of each individual cancer contaminated cell with respect to their normal cell, some major optical parameters variation are observed. Moreover, the cancerous cell concentration is considered…

Integrated Magneto-Optical Materials and Isolators: A Review

Bethanie J. H. Stadler, Tetsuya Mizumoto · 24 Jan 2014

Many novel materials and device designs have been proposed as photonic analogs to electrical diodes over the last four decades. This paper seeks to revisit these materials and designs as advanced technologies may enable experimental realization that was not possible upon conception of several of these designs. The background behind integration challenges, including waveguide birefringence,…

IEEE Photonics Journal template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Photonics Journal format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Photonics Journal template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Photonics Journal use?
IEEE Photonics Journal uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," IEEE Photonics Journal, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Photonics Journal?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Photonics Journal document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the IEEE Photonics Journal template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Photonics Journal format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes IEEE Photonics Journal?
IEEE Photonics Journal is a engineering and computer science journal published by IEEE. DocuGuru's IEEE Photonics Journal template matches IEEE's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready IEEE Photonics Journal PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official IEEE Photonics Journal template (the IEEEtran class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the IEEE Photonics Journal template cost?
You can start writing in the IEEE Photonics Journal template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready IEEE Photonics Journal PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
