This document introduces OEWaves' two core platform technologies: the optical Whispering Gallery Mode micro-resonator and the Opto-Electronic Oscillator. These technologies enable higher performance microwave and mm-wave systems with significantly reduced size, weight, power, and cost compared to electronic systems. The Whispering Gallery Mode micro-resonator can be used for ultra-narrow band optical filters and efficient optical modulators. The Opto-Electronic Oscillator can produce highly pure microwave and mm-wave signals using an opto-electronic feedback loop at various frequencies with unprecedented spectral purity.
