We report phase and amplitude measurements of large coherent structures originating from the noise-induced modulation instability in optical fibers. By using a specifically designed time-lens system (SEAHORSE) in which aberrations are compensated, the complex field is recorded in single-shot over long durations of 200 ps with sub-picosecond resolution. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/acss2-inhibitor.html Signatures of Akhmediev breather-like patterns are identified in the ultrafast temporal dynamics in very good agreement with numerical predictions based on the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.A passive correlated fiber loop ringdown (FLRD) system based on an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for macro-bending measurement. Due to the randomness of spontaneous emission, the autocorrelation coefficient of ASE has an extremely narrow FWHM (0.114 ns), which allows shorter fiber loop and higher sensitivity. The experimental results show that our system with a fiber length of 2.1 m can identify the bending within tens of nanoseconds. When the bending diameter remains 2.5 cm, the sensitivity of bending turns reaches 0.0017ns-1/turn. This system provides an effective solution for fast bending fault diagnosis.We present a theoretical study of directional light emission by dipole emitters near a spherical nanoparticle. Our analysis is extended from an exact electrodynamical approach for solving the coupling between a dipole and a sphere, providing a full picture of the directional emission for a complete set of combinations of variable emitters, particles, and their orientations. In particular, we show that the Mie resonances of a dielectric sphere are strongly influenced by the coupled dipole emitter, leading to the scattering properties that are different from the prediction by the standard Mie theory. Moreover, we demonstrate that the dielectric spheres have opposite effects on the emission direction and a decay rate of electric and magnetic dipoles. Our approach enriches the analytical toolbox for designing optical antennas and understanding dipole-sphere coupling.Micro/nano optoelectronic devices are widely studied as basic building blocks for on-chip integrated microsystem and multichannel logic units with excellent optoelectronic properties that are especially important part for interconnection route construction. Here, based on anisotropic waveguides, an optical switch with an on/off ratio of 2.14 is built up in a 2D CdS branched nanowire array. Because the branches are obliquely distributed at the same side of the trunk in a highly ordered form, the guided photoluminescence (PL) intensity from the trunk into the branch tightly relates to its angle. Based on the different intensity of the guided PL emitted from the end of each branch, the position of the incident spot in the backbone area can be identified accurately, making a feasible construction of an on-chip position-sensitive detector to realize an all-optical information process.At present, most of the gradient metasurfaces used to construct surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs)/spoof SPPs (SSPs) couplers are usually compact metal antennas working under reflection and transmission. In reflection mode, meta-couplers link propagating waves and surface waves (SWs), and SWs will undergo significant scattering before coupling to an Eigen SPP in the target system. In transmission mode, metal meta-couplers will encounter complex multilayer designing at the microwave/terahertz region and metal absorption loss at optical frequencies. In this Letter, to the best of our knowledge, a novel design using dielectric gradient metasurfaces instead of metal metasurface couplers is proposed to excite broadband SSPs on the metal groove array. We demonstrate that the well-designed phase dielectric gradient metasurface converts the normal incident terahertz wave to the predetermined angle in the dielectric substrate and then excites the broadband SSPs with the transmission coupling between the dielectric meta-coupler and SSPs surface. This research may open up new avenues in simple and broadband plane dielectric meta-couplers for SSPs in ultra-thin and compact functional devices for versatile applications.In this Letter, the broadband operation in wavelengths from 520 nm to 980 nm is demonstrated on silicon nitride nanophotonic phased arrays. The widest beam steering angle of 65° on a silicon nitride phased array is achieved. The optical radiation efficiency of the main grating lobe in a broad wavelength range is measured and analyzed theoretically. The optical spots radiated from the phased array chip are studied at different wavelengths of lasers. The nanophotonic phased array is excited by a supercontinuum laser source for a wide range of beam steering for the first time to the best of our knowledge. It paves the way to tune the wavelength from visible to near infrared range for silicon nitride nanophotonic phased arrays.We report on micromilling cavities into fused silica by a 1030 nm femtosecond laser using 2.17 GHz bursts. The milled cavities show an increased depth per layer for a higher number of pulses per burst while the ablation efficiency is also increased. The maximum ablation efficiency for the optimum fluence achieved in our experiments is 3.05mm3/min/W for a burst number of 10, which is 7.4 times higher than for the non-burst condition (0.41mm3/min/W). Furthermore, the ablation threshold for each sub-pulse is significantly reduced from 0.64J/cm2 for the non-burst condition to 0.15J/cm2 for 10 bursts. Beside the ablation efficiency, the surface roughness is also increased with the increasing burst number, while two ablation behaviors can be distinguished, namely, a gentle ablation regime for lower burst numbers and a coarse ablation regime, dominated by breaking out the surface rather than ablating it.In this Letter, we report optical confinement in the near-ultraviolet (near-UV) range in Ga2O3 nanowires (NWs) by distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) nanopatterned cavities. High-contrast DBRs, which act as the end mirrors of the cavities of the desired length, are designed and fabricated by focused ion beam etching. The resonant modes of the cavities are analyzed by micro-photoluminescence measurements, analytical models, and simulations, which show very good agreement between each other. Experimental reflectivities up to 50% are obtained over the 350-410 nm region for the resonances in this wavelength range. Therefore, Ga2O3 NW optical cavities are shown as good candidates for single-material-based near-UV light emitters.
