This invention relates to a system and method to determine the distributed birefringence profile along an optical fibre. Birefringence manifests as different refractive indices for two orthogonal states of polarization of the light propagating in the optic ...

Femtosecond laser direct-write waveplates based on stress-induced birefringence

Yves Bellouard, Christos Edouardos Athanasiou

The use of femtosecond lasers to introduce controlled stress states has recently been demonstrated in silica glass. We use this technique, in combination with chemical etching, to generate and control stress-induced birefringence over a well-defined region ...

Near optimal graphene terahertz non-reciprocal isolator

Juan Ramon Mosig, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Clara-Fausta Moldovan, Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Michele Tamagnone

Isolators, or optical diodes, are devices enabling unidirectional light propagation by using non-reciprocal optical materials, namely materials able to break Lorentz reciprocity. The realization of isolators at terahertz frequencies is a very important ope ...

Microwave-gated dynamic nuclear polarization

David Lyndon Emsley, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Arthur César Pinon, Xiao Ji, Mathieu Baudin

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) has become a method of choice to enhance signals in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Recently, we have proposed to combine cross-polarization (CP) with D-DNP to provide high polarization P(C-13) in short bu ...

Tailored surface birefringence by femtosecond laser assisted wet etching

Yves Bellouard

Surface texturing is demonstrated by the combination of wet etching and ultrafast laser nanostructuring of silica glass. Using potassium hydroxide (KOH) at room temperature as an etchant of laser modified glass, we show the polarization dependent linear in ...

Experimental Evaluation of the Polarization Crosstalk When Soldering a Polarization-Maintaining Fiber Into a V-Grooved Substrate

José Javier Pancracio Ojeda Andara

The influence of stress on the polarization extinction ratio (PER) when solderjet-bumping a bow-tie polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) to a V-grooved ceramic substrate is experimentally evaluated. Throughout this paper, the linear polarization of the cou ...

Coupling Strength Can Control the Polarization Twist of a Plasmonic Antenna

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Shourya Dutta Gupta, Banafsheh Abasahl

The far-field polarization of the optical response of a plasmonic antenna can be tuned by subtly engineering of its geometry. In this paper, we develop design rules for nano antennas which enable the generation of circular polarized light via the excitatio ...
