Multiple-octave spanning mid-IR supercontinuum generation in bulk quadratic nonlinear crystals [PDF]
, 2016 Bright and broadband coherent mid-IR radiation is important for exciting and probing molecular vibrations. Using cascaded nonlinearities in conventional quadratic nonlinear crystal like lithium niobate, self-defocusing near-IR solitons have been ...

Synthesis of CoAl2O4 by double decomposition reaction between LiAlO2 and molten KCoCl3 [PDF]
, 2008 Submicronic CoAl2O4 powders were prepared by double decomposition reaction between solid LiAlO2 and molten KCoCl3 at 500 ◦C for 24 h. The reaction mechanism involves the dissolution of LiAlO2 shifted by the precipitation of CoAl2O4 until complete ...

Effect of silver metallic particles on the spectral properties of europium ions in a potassium barium borate glass [PDF]
AIP AdvancesPotassium barium borate glasses (KBBO) embedded with europium and/or silver were made by the melt quenching technique. Silver metallic particles were induced by the heat-treatment technique. The average size of the particles is 4 nm.

Ultrafast-pulse diagnostic using third-order frequency-resolved optical gating in organic films [PDF]
, 2004 We report on the diagnostic of ultrafast pulses by frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) based on strong third-harmonic generation (THG) in amorphous organic thin films. The high THG conversion efficiency of these films allows for the characterization

Persistent luminescence in Eu2+-doped compounds : a review [PDF]
, 2010 In 1996, Matsuzawa et al. reported on the extremely long-lasting afterglow of SrAl2O4:Eu2+ codoped with Dy3+ ions, which was more than 10-times brighter than the previously widely used ZnS:Cu,Co.

Realization and characterization of a 2-photon 4-qubit linear cluster state [PDF]
, 2007 We report on the experimental realization of a 4-qubit linear cluster state via two photons entangled both in polarization and linear momentum. This state was investigated by performing tomographic measurements and by evaluating an entanglement witness ...
