Brillouin scattering in gas-filled hollow-core fibres

Flavien Gyger

Edward E. Hagenlocker and William G. Rado demonstrated Brillouin interaction in gas for the first time in 1965, right after the very first demonstrations of stimulated Brillouin scattering in solid materials. In their experiment, they used a megawatt pulse ...

Spectral Properties of the Signal in Phase-Sensitive Optical Time-Domain Reflectometry with Direct Detection

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Li Zhang, Xin Lu

The spectral properties of the Rayleigh backscattered traces measured by a phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometer (øOTDR) with direct detection are theoretically and experimentally analyzed. The spectrum of the measured øOTDR signal is found to ...

Frequency division using a soliton-injected semiconductor gain-switched frequency comb

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Wenle Weng

With optical spectral marks equally spaced by a frequency in the microwave or the radio frequency domain, optical frequency combs have been used not only to synthesize optical frequencies from microwave references but also to generate ultralow-noise microw ...

Kramers Kronig detection of four 20 Gbaud 16-QAM channels using Kerr combs for a shared phase estimation

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Fatemeh Alishahi, Ahmad Fallahpour

We experimentally demonstrate Kramers-Kronig detection of four 20 Gbaud 16-quadrature-amplitude-modulated (QAM) channels after 50 km fiber transmission using two soliton Kerr combs as signal sources and local oscillators. The estimated carrier phase at the ...
