Impact of Mode-Hopping Noise on InGaN Edge Emitting Laser Relative Intensity Noise Properties

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté, Stéphane Trebaol, Antoine Congar

In this paper, we report, through a comparative analysis of static and dynamic measurements, on the impact of mode hopping on the overall intensity noise dynamics of InGaN edge emitting lasers. Mode clustering usually observed in InGaN lasers enhances the ...

A 10b SAR ADC with Widely Scalable Sampling Rate and AGC Amplifier Front-End

Seyed Armin Tajalli, Yusuf Leblebici, Firat Çelik, Ayça Akkaya

This paper presents a low power successive approximation register (SAR) ADC and its front-end automatic gain control (AGC) amplifier designed in 65nm CMOS technology. Digitally controlled variable gain amplifier (VGA) in AGC loop is used to maximize the dy ...

A 4.7μW switched-bias MEMS microphone preamplifier for ultra-low-power voice interfaces

Kyojin Choo

This paper presents a switched-bias MEMS microphone preamplifier for an ultra-low-power voice interface. A switched-MOSFET periodically changes the MOSFET between strong inversion and accumulation to inherently reduce 1/f noise. In addition, a proposed cou ...

Wideband Omnidirectional Planar Antenna with Vertical Polarization

Juan Ramon Mosig, Lei Wang

In this paper we propose a circular leaky wave-antenna with omnidirectional radiation in the H-plane. The design utilizes double-layered strips to create an end-fire antenna. A linear tapering of the stripes in the design endows the antenna with a 27% impe ...

Near-Field Integration of a SiN Nanobeam and a SiO2 Microcavity for Heisenberg-Limited Displacement Sensing

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Vivishek Sudhir, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Placing a nanomechanical object in the evanescent near field of a high-Q optical microcavity gives access to strong gradient forces and quantum-limited displacement readout, offering an attractive platform for both precision sensing technology and basic qu ...

Thresholdless Lasing of Nitride Nanobeam Cavities on Silicon

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Raphaël Butté, Ian Michael Rousseau, Noelia Vico Triviño, Gordon Jens Callsen

We present a temperature dependent optical and quantum-optical characterization of close-to-ideal lasing in GaN-based nanobeam cavities. Measuring the photon statistics of emission allows us to prove high-beta lasing at room temperature, and thresholdless ...

Thulium Assisted Parametric Conversion from Near to Short Wave Infrared

Camille Sophie Brès, Adrien Billat, Steevy Joyce Cordette, Yu-Pei Tseng

We report an all-fiber continuous wave source, tunable between 1935-1980nm, based on parametric conversion combined with thulium amplification. More than 150mW of power and 30dB optical signal-to-noise ratio is obtained over the entire range. OCIS codes: ( ...

Generation and application of dynamic gratings in optical fibers using stimulated Brillouin scattering

Luc Thévenaz, Nikolay Primerov

Since the invention of optical fiber cable data transmission using light has become ubiquitous in the past years. Nonlinear optical effects, which are hardly noticed in our daily life, have become crucial and highly influential for the design and performan ...

A 2.4 GHz MEMS based sub-sampling receiver front-end with low power channel selection filtering at RF

Christian Enz, Aravind Prasad Heragu Singaiyengar

A sub-sampling RF front end which exploits the intrinsically high quality factor of MEMS devices for performing channel filtering directly at RF is proposed in this work. This narrow band filtering at RF also acts as a good anti-aliasing filter to support ...
