Several fundamental restrictions limit the implementation of microlasers in high power systems, low resistivity of coatings and compactness of elements, especially if control of polarization is necessary. link= signaling pathway Thin-film-based coatings with extremely high optical resistivity and polarizing properties for normal incidence could become a preferable solution. signaling pathway In this Letter, a novel multilayer approach to form all-silica polarizing coatings for normal incidence angle applications is proposed. Laser induced damage thresholds (test one-on-one) at the wavelength of 355 nm were 39J/cm2 and 48.5J/cm2 for the reflected and transmitted polarizations, respectively. Such elements can essentially improve tolerated radiation power and allow for production of more compact laser systems.We report on a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror mode-locked thin-disk oscillator based on YbYAB delivering pulses with a duration of 462 fs at an average output power of 19.2 W and a pulse energy of 0.38 µJ.A novel optical frequency division technique, called regenerative harmonic injection locking, is used to transfer the timing stability of an optical frequency comb with a repetition rate in the millimeter wave range (∼300GHz) to a chip-scale mode-locked laser with a ∼10GHz repetition rate. By doing so, the 300 GHz optical frequency comb is optically divided by a factor of 30× to 10 GHz. The stability of the mode-locked laser after regenerative harmonic injection locking is ∼10-12 at 1 s with a 1/τ trend. To facilitate optical frequency division, a coupled opto-electronic oscillator is implemented to assist the injection locking process. signaling pathway This technique is exceptionally power efficient, as it uses less than 100µW of optical power to achieve stable locking.This Letter proposes a new method to eliminate the quantum radiation pressure force noise in optomechanics at frequencies much smaller than the resonance frequency of the optomechanical mirror. With no radiation pressure force noise, the shot noise and thermal noise together determine the total noise in the system. The force sensitivity of the optomechanical cavity is improved beyond standard quantum limit at frequencies much smaller than the resonance frequency of the mechanical oscillator. Finally, optimum optomechanical cavity design parameters for attaining the best sensitivity are discussed.To date, color-tunable photon upconversion (UC) in a single nanocrystal (NC) still suffers from cumbersome structures. Herein, we prepared a compact two-layer NC with bright and high-purity red and green UC emission upon 980 and 1530 nm excitation, respectively. The effects of trace Tm3+ doping and inert-shell coating on the UC color and intensity were discussed. In addition, the color tuning via various dual-excitation configurations and the color stability with temperature and excitation intensity were demonstrated. link2 The proposed UC NC, featuring compact structure and high-quality color tuning, can lower the synthesis time cost and difficulty of its kind and can find wide applications in multi-channel imaging, display devices, anti-counterfeiting, and so on.In this Letter, we investigate the energy-scaling rules of hollow-core fiber (HCF)-based nonlinear pulse propagation and compression merged with high-energy Yb-laser technology, in a regime where the effects such as plasma disturbance, optical damages, and setup size become important limiting parameters. As a demonstration, 70 mJ 230 fs pulses from a high-energy Yb laser amplifier were compressed down to 40 mJ 25 fs by using a 2.8-m-long stretched HCF with a core diameter of 1 mm, resulting in a record peak power of 1.3 TW. This work presents a critical advance of a high-energy pulse (hundreds of mJ level) nonlinear interactions platform based on high energy sub-ps Yb technology with considerable applications, including driving intense THz, X-ray pulses, Wakefield acceleration, parametric wave mixing and ultraviolet generation, and tunable long-wavelength generation via enhanced Raman scattering.Multimodal nonlinear microscopy has been widely applied in biology and medicine due to its relatively deep penetration into tissue and its label-free manner. However, current multimodal systems require the use of multiple sources and detectors, leading to bulky, complex, and expensive systems. In this Letter, we present a novel method of using a single light source and detector for nonlinear multimodal imaging of biological samples. Using a photonic crystal fiber, a pulse picker, and multimode fibers, our developed system successfully acquired multimodal images of swine coronary arteries, including two-photon excitation fluorescence, second-harmonic generation, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering, and backreflection. The developed system could be a valuable tool for various biomedical applications.Narrowband mid-infrared emitters, quantified by the Q-factor, have garnered a lot of attention due to their emerging applications from chemical and biosensing to efficient thermal utilization. Previous studies reported high Q-factor emitters within several selected wavelengths, still lacking a large database of emitter structures with very high Q-factors. In this Letter, we utilized the Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) algorithm under the framework of material informatics to optimize the Tamm emitters at the infrared range (from 3 to 10 µm) for achieving a high Q-factor and high emissivity simultaneously, providing a large database of high and sharp emission peaks in the infrared. link2 Through the MCTS algorithm, the structure with a Q-factor of 508 and an emissivity peak of 0.92 at 4.225 µm is obtained, far surpassing the previous results, and the underlying mechanism is discussed by electric field simulations. The high Q-factor emitters in the database show good monochromatism and high emissivity, accelerating the selection of proper perfect emitters for desired wavelengths. This Letter also paves a feasible avenue for the emitter and absorber design with ultrahigh monochromatism.Photonic integrated circuits for wideband and multi-band optical communications will need waveguide crossings that operate at all the wavelengths required by the system. In this Letter, we use the modified gradient decedent method to optimize the dual-wavelength band (DWB) crossings on both single- and double-level platforms. On the single-level platform, the simulation results show insertion losses (ILs) less than 0.07 and 0.11 dB for a crossing working at a DWB of 1.5-1.6 and 1.95-2.05 µm. ILs are less than 0.1 and 0.2 dB for a crossing operating in the DWB of 1.5-1.6 and 2.2-2.3 µm. link3 On the double-layer platform, the simulated results show IL less than 0.08 dB across the wavelength range of 1.25-2.25 µm. We experimentally demonstrate the DWB crossing operating at 1.5-1.6 and 2.2-2.3 µm to have IL less than 0.3 and 0.4 dB and crosstalk of -28 and -26dB in the two bands, respectively.Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems can utilize the full capacity of a single optical fiber and thereby keep up with the increasing demand for higher bandwidths within datacenters. A single mode-locked laser diode emits a comb of wavelengths and can thus, in principle, be used to generate all the channels of a WDM system. link3 However, achieving a large channel spacing of much more than 20-30 GHz can be troublesome, since this depends directly on making the cavity smaller. To circumvent this, harmonic mode-locking can be utilized, as this increases the channel spacing while keeping the cavity size fixed. In this work, we show that a monolithically integrated 45-GHz harmonically mode-locked ring laser based on an intra-cavity Mach-Zehnder filter is feasible on a generic integration platform. True harmonic mode-locking was achieved with no measurable RF peak at the fundamental frequency. The pulse train exhibits an autocorrelation trace width of ∼2.5ps FWHM, RF linewidth of ∼0.44MHz, and 3-dB comb bandwidth of ∼240GHz.S-bends with a widening of the width at the mid-bend and a Bezier curve transition are proposed and demonstrated for low-loss S-bends. The increased optical confinement and reduced transition loss enable low insertion loss (IL) and compact S-bends with longitudinal offsets as small as 2.5 µm and a wide operating bandwidth (∼100nm) on a 220 nm thick silicon-on-insulator platform. The simulation results show ILs less than (0.22, 0.20, 0.20, 0.20) dB in the wavelength range of (1.5-1.6) µm, while the minimum ILs are (0.13, 0.13, 0.15, 0.16) dB for lateral offsets of (3, 6, 9, 12) µm. The experimental results show that ILs remain less than (0.41, 0.38, 0.36, 0.39) dB for the mid-bend widening Bezier (MWB) S-bends.We report a new, to the best of our knowledge, type of SI-GaAs photoconductive semiconductor switch (PCSS) with nanostructures. Since light can enter from both the top and side surfaces of nanostructures, the effective penetration depth is significantly increased. Lower on-state resistance and a longer lock-on time have been achieved in the nonlinear mode with this design, as well as a lower triggering fluence in the linear mode. This could be highly useful for a variety of applications that require lower on-state resistance and/or longer lock-on time such as pulsed power systems and firing set switches.Since the introduction of attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectroscopy for the characterization of materials, attempts have been made to relate the measured reflectivity (R) to the absorption coefficient (α) of the absorbing material of interest. The common approach is limited to the low absorption case under the assumption R∼exp(-αde), where de is an effective thickness, which is evaluated for the lossless case. In this Letter, a more detailed derivation leads to R=exp(-βdp/2), enabling the definition of an ATR-effective absorption coefficient β and the penetration depth dp of the electric field in the absorbing material. It is found that β∼4πε2/λ, where ε2 is the imaginary part of the complex dielectric function of the absorbing material, and λ is the wavelength. An alternative formulation is R=exp(-αdef), where def is a generalized effective thickness for arbitrary strength of absorption which reduces to de in the low absorption limit. The experimental data for water, the biopolymer chitosan, and soda-lime glass prove the reliability of the ATR-effective absorption coefficient in the infrared range.A photonic method to generate and transmit quadruple bandwidth dual-band dual-chirp microwave waveforms with immunity to fiber chromatic dispersion induced power fading is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which is suitable for Doppler blind-speed elimination, small target detection, and multiband detection in multiband radar systems. A dual-polarization dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator is utilized to realize carrier-suppressed harmonic single-sideband modulation of a radio frequency carrier and carrier-suppressed DSB modulation of a baseband single-chirped waveform at two orthogonal polarization states. After photoelectronic conversion, dual-band bandwidth-quadrupling dual-chirp waveforms are generated. Moreover, different from traditional DSB-based dual-chirp signal generation, the generated dual-chirp microwave waveforms can be transmitted over fiber without power fading, which is significant in dual-band radars for one to multiple base station transmissions.
