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 ...
This paper presents wideband tunable band-stop filters working in the Ku to Ka-band frequencies based on a miniature single-MEM device combining a central capacitive MEM switch with AlN dielectric and inductive suspension arms. An outstanding 55% tuning ra ...

In this paper a reconfigurable bandpass filter able to switch between WiFi and UMTS transmit band standards is presented. The filter is designed in such a way that center frequency and bandwidth specifications are precisely met by defining a switchable fil ...
Photonic crystals are stuctures in which the refractive index varies periodically on the wavelength scale in one, two or three dimensions. Due to interference effects, these structures can forbid light propagation over a large spectral range called "the ph ...
We study the problem of A/D conversion and error-rate dependence of a class of non-bandlimited signals which have a finite rate of innovation, particularly, a continuous periodic stream of Diracs, characterized by a finite set of time positions and weights ...
This thesis describes innovative techniques for reducing speckle noise and improving the intensity profile of the speckle correlation fringes. The methods are based on reducing the range of the modulation intensity values of the speckle interference patter ...
We present a surface-normal modulator architecture for optical interconnects that offers misalignment tolerance as well as high contrast ratio over a wide wavelength range for a small drive voltage. A contrast ratio greater than 3 dB was achieved for only ...
Micro- and nano-optical structures offer the possibility to control light on a wavelength scale. This allows further miniaturization of integrated optical circuits. Planar photonic crystal waveguides and microcavities are considered basic building blocks f ...
In this article we present a new multiscale surface representation based on point samples. Given an unstructured point cloud as input, our method first computes a series of point-based surface approximations at successively higher levels of smoothness, tha ...
