Highly-sensitive distributed birefringence measurements based on a two-pulse interrogation of a dynamic Brillouin grating

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Andrey Denisov

A method for distributed birefringence measurements is proposed based on the interference pattern generated by the interrogation of a dynamic Brillouin grating (DBG) using two short consecutive optical pulses. Compared to existing DBG interrogation techniq ...

Ultrafast Laser to Tailor Material Properties: An Enabling Tool in Advanced Three-dimensional Micromanufacturing

Yves Bellouard

The progress made in ultrafast laser technology towards high repetition rate systems have opened new opportunities in micromanufacturing. Non-linear absorption phenomena triggered by femtosecond pulses interacting with transparent materials allow material ...

Design of atomic clock cavity based on a loop-gap geometry and modified boundary conditions

Anja Skrivervik, Anton Evgeniev Ivanov

In this study, we investigate a concept that can be used to improve the magnetic field homogeneity in a microwave cavity applied in a novel, high-performance atomic frequency standard. We show that by modifying the boundary conditions in the case of a loop ...

Dynamics of the MnAs alpha/beta-Striped Microstructure and of the Fe Magnetization Reversal in Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001): An Optical-Laser Pump-Free-Electron-Laser Probe Scattering Experiment

Eugenio Ferrari

It was shown recently that the Fe magnetization reversal in the Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001) epitaxial system, attained by temperature control of the regular stripe pattern of the MnAs alpha- and beta-phases, can also be driven by an ultrashort optical laser pulse. I ...

Soliton Kerr Frequency Combs Generated in Integrated Photonic Chips

Victor Brasch

In 2007 a new method to generate optical frequency combs was discovered. In contrast to conventional frequency combs which are generated from pulsed laser sources, these Kerr frequency combs (also known as microresonator frequency combs) are generated enti ...

Frequency comb generation in the green using silicon nitride microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Michail Zervas, Nicolas Volet, Hairun Guo, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer

Optical frequency combs enable precision measurements in fundamental physics and have been applied to a growing number of applications, such as molecular spectroscopy, LIDAR and atmospheric trace-gas sensing. In recent years, the generation of frequency co ...

Raman Self-Frequency Shift of Dissipative Kerr Solitons in an Optical Microresonator

Tobias Kippenberg, Victor Brasch, Michail Zervas, Michael Wolfgang Geiselmann, Maxim Karpov, Hairun Guo, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts

The formation of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in microresonators driven by a continuous-wave laser enables the generation of coherent, broadband, and spectrally smooth optical frequency combs as well as femtosecond pulse sources with compact form fac ...

Demonstration of optical multicasting using Kerr frequency comb lines

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Zhe Zhao, Long Li, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally demonstrate optical multicasting using Kerr frequency combs generated from a Si3N4 microresonator. We obtain Kerr combs in two states with different noise properties by varying the pump wavelength in the resonator and investigate the effe ...

Generation of an optical frequency comb in the green with silicon nitride microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Michail Zervas, Nicolas Volet, Hairun Guo, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer

The first realization of a green-light frequency comb is reported in a silicon nitride ring microresonator, from third-order non-linear interaction of a near-infrared 1-THz spacing Kerr comb spanning 2/3 of an octave. ...

Multi-Terabit/s Transmission Using Chip-Scale Frequency Comb Sources

Tobias Kippenberg, Victor Brasch, Tobias Herr

Chip-scale frequency comb sources are likely to become key elements of future terabit/s optical transceivers. We investigate and demonstrate the viability of different comb generation schemes for transmission at multiterabit/s data rates. ...
