Diamond Window Technology for Electron Cyclotron Heating and Current Drive: State of the Art

Nuclear fusion power plants require electron cyclotron (EC) heating and current drive (H&CD) systems for plasma heating and stabilization. High-power microwave beams between 1 and 2?MW generated by gyrotrons propagate in a dedicated waveguide transmission ...

Near-field characterization of Bloch surface waves based 2D optical components

Richa Dubey

Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are surface electromagnetic modes that propagate at the interface between a multilayer substrate and a homogeneous external medium. The optical field of the surface mode is confined near the surface of the multilayer. This vertic ...

Optical Tomographic Image Reconstruction Based on Beam Propagation and Sparse Regularization

Michaël Unser, Demetri Psaltis, Cédric René Jean Vonesch, Ulugbek Kamilov

Optical tomographic imaging requires an accurate forward model as well as regularization to mitigate missing-data artifacts and to suppress noise. Nonlinear forward models can provide more accurate interpretation of the measured data than their linear coun ...

Near Field Investigation of Bloch Surface Based Platform for 2D Integrated Optics

Hans Peter Herzig, Elsie Barakat, Richa Dubey

Dielectric multilayers sustaining Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are considered as a novel platform for two dimensional (2D) integrated optics. The dielectric platform is exploited to manipulate surface waves by patterning 2D dielectric optical components on t ...

Probing molecular absorption under slow light propagation using a photonic crystal waveguide

Luc Thévenaz, Isabelle Dicaire

High-resolution infrared absorption spectroscopy of acetylene gas is demonstrated in dispersion-engineered photonic crystal waveguides under slow light propagation. Individual absorption profiles are obtained for both TE and TM polarizations for group indi ...

Ultra-fast writing of self-organized bubble networks using femtosecond laser exposure in the cumulative regime

Yves Bellouard, Max-Olivier Hongler

Femtosecond pulses focused in glass substrate induces various modifications in the material depending on the fluence level and laser exposure conditions. Upon increasing pulse energies above the energy threshold for non-linear absorption, femtosecond laser ...

Photosensitivity and luminescence of chromium and bismuth doped fibers

Christian Ban

Optical fiber materials with broad-band gain in the visible or in the telecommunication window are of great interest for optical communication or the biomedical domain in order to built integrated tunable lasers, amplifiers, ultra-short pulse lasers, or br ...

Holographic capture of femtosecond pulse propagation

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu

We have implemented a holographic system to study the propagation of femtosecond laser pulses with high temporal (150 fs) and spatial resolutions (4 μm). The phase information in the holograms allows us to reconstruct both positive and negative index chang ...

Femtosecond-irradiation-induced refractive-index changes and channel waveguiding in bulk Ti3+: Sapphire

René Salathé, Christian Depeursinge, Tristan Colomb

We have employed femtosecond laser writing in order to induce refractive- index changes and waveguides in Ti3+-doped sapphire. Doping the sapphire crystal with an appropriate ion significantly reduces the threshold for creating structural changes, thus e ...
