All-optical switching in epsilon-near-zero asymmetric directional coupler

We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating perform ...

A Photonic Integrated Circuit-Based Erbium-doped Waveguide Amplifier

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Xinru Ji, Zheru Qiu, Junqiu Liu, Jijun He, Yang Liu

We demonstrate an erbium-doped waveguide amplifier by erbium ion implantation in Si3N4 photonic integrated circuits, achieving 145 mW on-chip output power and more than 30 dB small-signal gain, which is on par with commercial fiber amplifiers and beyond st ...

Distributed measurement of mode group effective refractive index difference in a few mode optical fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Alejandro Dominguez Lopez

The possibility to perform distributed measurements of the effective refractive index difference between distinct modes in few mode optical fibers is demonstrated using phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometry. Effective refractive index differenc ...

SBS-based fiber sensors

Luc Thévenaz

The spectra of Brillouin scattering processes in optical fibers are affected by temperature, axial strain, and other quantities of interest. This dependence forms the basis for optical Brillouin scattering based optical fiber sensors. Since the first propo ...

Thiazole Boron Difluoride Dyes with Large Stokes Shift, Solid State Emission and Room-Temperature Phosphorescence

Jieping Zhu, Wei Wang, Shuo Tong

The small Stokes shift and weak emission in the solid state are two main shortcomings associated with the boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) family of dyes. This study presents the design, synthesis and luminescent properties of boron difluoro complexes of 2-ar ...
