Chirped and chirp-free solitons in optical fiber Bragg gratings with dispersive reflectivity having parabolic law nonlinearity by Jacobi’s elliptic function

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
This paper enumerates optical solitons and other solutions in fiber Bragg gratings having dispersive reflectivity with parabolic form of nonlinearity. The new Jacobi elliptic functions expansion has been utilized to achieve this goal.

Amplitude-squeezed fiber-Bragg-grating solitons [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2004
Quantum fluctuations of optical fiber Bragg grating solitons are investigated numerically by the back-propagation method. It is found for the first time that the bandgap effects of the grating act as a nonlinear filter and cause the soliton to be amplitude squeezed.

Fiber Bragg grating-based linear-cavity fiber laser

open access: yesOptics Express, 2023
A fiber Bragg grating-based linear-cavity fiber laser is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. A single-mode fiber Bragg grating is used as a wavelength selector in the fundamental mode, and four few-mode fiber Bragg gratings are used to reflect LP01 mode, LP11 mode, LP21 mode and LP02 mode at the same wavelength.

Responsive Visible‐Wavelength Metasurfaces from Porous Silicon Based on Fano Guided‐Mode Resonance

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The article introduces mesoporous silicon metasurfaces (pSi‐MS) supporting Fano guided‐mode resonances in the visible regime. By combining top‐down lithographic patterning of 2D gratings with bottom‐up electrochemical porosification, the approach realizes a new class of responsive metasurfaces, enabling highly sensitive and portable platforms for small

Beyond Brown: Lignin's Emerging Role in Structural Color

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin, long regarded as a brown industrial byproduct, is emerging as a sustainable platform for structural color. This Perspective highlights how lignin's refractive index, intrinsic absorption, and nanoscale assembly enable tunable photonic responses in colloidal and thin‐film architectures, and outlines design strategies to advance scalable, bio ...
