Following rapid developments in biotechnology and medicine, optical sensing promises to be extremely important in various applications such as drug discovery, environmental monitoring, etc. Refractive index (RI) based optical sensing is straightforward to ...
We discuss here potential venues for applications and exotic features of quantum metamaterials. We explore the coupling of conventional electromagnetic metamaterials with quantum emitters and the wave properties of quantum metamaterials obtained by tailori ...
We present recent implementations of microwave photonic filters using the following two technologies: InP-based MDR (microdisk resonator) on and coupled to a nanophotonic SOI waveguide and dynamic Brillouin gratings (DBGs) in polarization maintaining fiber ...
We experimentally demonstrate the active inhibition of subwavelength confined cavity modes emission and quality factor enhancement by controlling the cavity optical surrounding. The intrinsic radiation angular spectrum of modes confined in planar photonics ...
Photonic crystals (PhC) are periodically structured electromagnetic media, in which light within some frequency ranges cannot propagate through the structure. Such frequency ranges are commonly referred as photonic band gaps (PBG). The length scale of the ...
We theoretically and experimentally investigate a band edge Photonic Crystal (PhC) Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) operating at 3.1 THz. The surface emission is achieved by using a second-order Bragg grating at the PhC tile boundaries. Highly directional surfa ...
Compared to near infra-red photonic crystal (PhC) band-edge lasers, achieving vertical emission with quantum cascade (QC) material operating in the THz range needs dedicated engineering because the TM polarized emission of QCLs favors in-plane emitting sch ...
A cw-244-nm-Ar+ laser was used to fabricate Bragg gratings in pristine and H-2-loaded Bi-Al-SiO2 optical fibers with index changes as high as 3.6 x 10(-4) and 19.3 x 10(-4), respectively. For comparison, fiber Bragg gratings in pristine and H-2-loaded SMF- ...
A complete realization of an optically tunable true time delay, generated through the combination of a photonic RF phase shifter and a Brillouin slow light element is presented. Illustration through a dynamic microwave photonic filter is demonstrated. ...
Dynamic reconfiguration of a microwave photonic filter by tuning its basic delay based on stimulated Brillouin scattering-induced slow light and optical phase shift of the optical carrier is experimentally implemented. The measurements confirm that the fre ...
