Most-cited papers in IEEE Photonics Technology Letters

A 3-Gb/s Single-LED OFDM-Based Wireless VLC Link Using a Gallium Nitride $\mu{\rm LED}$

Dobroslav Tsonev, Hyunchae Chun, Sujan Rajbhandari et al. · 31 Jan 2014

This letter presents a visible light communication (VLC) system based on a single 50- μm gallium nitride light emitting diode (LED). A device of this size exhibits a 3-dB modulation bandwidth of at least 60 MHz - significantly higher than commercially available white lighting LEDs. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is employed as a modulation scheme.…

White-light emission from near UV InGaN-GaN LED chip precoated with blue/green/red phosphors

Jinn‐Kong Sheu, Shoou‐Jinn Chang, Cheng‐Chien Kuo et al. · 1 Jan 2003

Phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated by precoating blue/green/red phosphors onto near ultraviolate (n-UV) LED chips prior to package into LED lamps. With a 20-mA injection current, it was found that the color temperature T/sub c/ was around 5900 K and the color-rendering index R/sub a/ was around 75 for the "n-UV+blue/green/red" white LED lamps.…

A terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer (TOAD)

J. P. Sokoloff, Paul R. Prucnal, Ivan Glesk et al. · 1 Jul 1993

A device capable of demultiplexing Tb/s pulse trains that requires less than 1 pJ of switching energy and can be integrated on a chip is presented. The device consists of an optical nonlinear element asymmetrically placed in a short fiber loop. Its switching time is determined by the off-center position of the nonlinear element within…

Anomalous dispersion in photonic crystal fiber

J. C. Knight, J. Arriaga, T. A. Birks et al. · 1 Jul 2000

We describe the measured group-velocity dispersion characteristics of several air-silica photonic crystal fibers with anomalous group-velocity dispersion at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. The values measured over a broad spectral range are compared to those predicted for an isolated strand of silica surrounded by air. We demonstrate a strictly single-mode fiber which has zero dispersion at…

IEEE Photonics Technology Letters template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Photonics Technology Letters format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Photonics Technology Letters 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 Technology Letters use?
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters 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 Technology Letters, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Photonics Technology Letters?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Photonics Technology Letters 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 Technology Letters template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Photonics Technology Letters format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes IEEE Photonics Technology Letters?
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters is a engineering and computer science journal published by IEEE. DocuGuru's IEEE Photonics Technology Letters template matches IEEE's official submission format.
