Deterministic Fiber‐Optic Spectral Engineering Enables Three‐Color Multiplexed Two‐Photon Microscopy
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A simulation‐guided spectral‐engineering framework maps the nonlinear parameter space of a fiber laser platform to identify balanced three‐band excitation states. The resulting 960, 1080, and 1175 nm femtosecond pulses deliver nJ‐level energies for low‐cross‐talk chromatically multiplexed two‐photon microscopy.

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.This work demonstrates a high‐fidelity stability transfer from an optical reference to a high‐repetition‐rate microcomb using a mode‐locked laser bridge. By employing electro‐optic sampling timing detection, femtosecond‐level synchronization and 10−18‐level fractional frequency stability are achieved.

High‐Efficiency Graphene‐Silicon Slot‐Waveguide Microring Modulator at 1.5 and 2 µm Wavelength Bands
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.E/O modulators typically face a trade‐off between bandwidth and modulation efficiency. An integrated E/O modulator is presented that simultaneously achieves wideband, large bandwidth, and high modulation efficiency operation by embedding a partially overlapped double‐layer graphene on a compact silicon slot‐waveguide microring resonator.

Grating‐Lens Empowered Metafiber for Large‐Angle Light Collection With 3D Nanoprinted Structures
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A grating‐lens‐based Metafiber enables efficient light coupling into single‐mode fibers at large incidence angles. By combining diffraction and focusing on the fiber facet using a 3D nanoprinted holographic structure, light is selectively coupled only at specific angles while suppressing unwanted signals. This approach achieves high coupling efficiency
