The Many Facets of Optical Computing: A revival of optical engineering has been spurred by the development of devices taking advantage of nonlinear optical phenomena Free

This article was originally prepared by Brian S. Wherrett as a series of responses to questions posed by Assistant Editor Peter Batacan during his reporting for the article ‘Can Physics Make Optics Compute?,’ p. 9. CIP believes that those responses, which focused mainly on devices researched at Heriot‐Watt University, are of interest to our readers, and has edited them into the following Special Feature.
