We experimentally demonstrate an extremely simple technique to achieve pulse advancements in optical fibers by using both spontaneous amplified and stimulated Brillouin scattering. It is shown that the group velocity of a light signal is all-optically cont ...
Slow and fast light with null amplification or loss of a light signal is experimentally demonstrated. This novel method for producing zero-gain slow and fast light takes advantage of the great flexibility of stimulated Brillouin scattering in optical fiber ...
In a previous paper (Song et al., 2005) we reported the first experimental demonstration of pulse advancement with gain in optical fibers using stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). We tested the two methods described above to achieve gain-assisted fast l ...
We study whether a violation of the null energy condition necessarily implies the presence of instabilities. We prove that this is the case in a large class of situations, including isotropic solids and fluids relevant for cosmology. On the other hand we p ...
We describe a novel technique based on stimulated Brillouin scattering for propagating fast light (signal advancement) with low distortion in optical fibers. The essence of the technique relies on the presence of two separate gain resonances in the Brillou ...
A method to achieve an extremely wide and flexible control of the group velocity in an optical fiber using stimulated Brillouin scattering is presented. Group velocities below 71,000 km/s on one hand, well exceeding the speed of light in vacuum on the othe ...
We demonstrate the generation of slow and fast light based on stimulated Brillouin scattering in As2Se3 chalcogenide fiber with the best efficiency ever reported. The Brillouin gain of 43 dB is achieved with only 60-mW pump power in a 5-m single-mode chalc ...
Active control of the group velocity in optical fibres is demonstrated, allowing long delays, faster-than-light propagation and even negative velocity, for which the peak of a pulse exits the fibre before entering the input end ...
We experimentally investigate the effect of residual disorder on the dispersion curve of light near a band edge. A Fourier space imaging technique accurately distinguishes the propagating regime from diffusive transport and evanescent regime in planar phot ...

The invention relates to an optical tweezer device including at least one light source (2) and one three-dimensional optical trap (9,10), said optical trap comprising one focusing micro-mirror (7) which is adapted to reflect and focus at least a portion of ...
