Abstract
A photonic AC-DC voltage and current equivalence converter includes: a photonic chip; a weak thermal link; an isothermal region; a resistive electrode; an isothermal region photonic nanoresonator; an isothermal region waveguide; a chip photonic nanoresonator; and a chip waveguide, such that an ac voltage is determined from matching a temperature rise of the isothermal region due to a primary elevated temperature of the isothermal region when ac voltage is received by the resistive electrode.
