Abstract: Abstract SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ERROR-TOLERANT ALL-OPTICAL BUFFERING USING REFLECTIVE BOUNDARIES The present invention relates to an improved all-optical buffer system (100) comprising a transparent enclosure (110), an interior optical propagation region (130), a field-responsive fluid medium, and a central electromagnetic element (140). The system is characterized by a high-reflectivity boundary coating (120) provided over a major portion of the interior surface of the enclosure (110), with optical input and output coupling apertures (160, 170). The central electromagnetic element (140) establishes a field gradient that forms gradient refractive index regions (150) within the fluid medium. The coating (120) reflects off-axis optical rays into the propagation region (130), enabling repeated traversal of the gradient refractive index regions (150) along a multi-bounce optical ray path (180). The system provides an optical confinement arrangement for buffering and delaying optical pulses in photonic processing and optical communication applications. Figure 1 is the representative drawing.
