Photonic integrated systems can be harnessed for fast and efficient optical telecommunication and metrology technologies. Here the authors develop a dual-soliton microcomb technique for massively parallel coherent laser ranging that requires only a single ...
Optical amplification in hollow core fibers has been achieved using stimulated Brillouin scattering directly in the gaseous medium. More than 50 dB optical gain is observed over 50 m of fiber using 200 mW of pump power. ...
In our work, we used stimulated Brillouin scattering directly in the gas medium (such as air) filling a hollow-core fiber to realize a massive optical amplification, by a factor of 200,000. ...
Optical fibres offer the possibility to realize distributed sensing, which means that each point along the fibre can separately and selectively sense quantities such as temperature, strain, acoustics, and pressure, in total similarity to a real organic ner ...

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 ...
The integration of conducting and semiconducting architectures within thermally drawn thin and flexible fibers is emerging as a versatile platform for smart sensors and imaging systems, medical and biological probes, energy harvesting and advanced textile. ...
Modulation instability (MI) as the main limit to the sensing distance of distributed fiber sensors is thoroughly investigated in this thesis in order to obtain a model for predicting its characteristics and alleviating its effects. Starting from Maxwell's ...
Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers revolutionized long-haul optical communications and laser technology. Erbium ions could provide a basis for efficient optical amplification in photonic integrated circuits but their use remains impractical as a result of insuf ...
