Photonic integrated circuits for terahertz source generation
The authors introduce four kinds of terahertz photonics components based on photonic integrated circuits (PICs). A PIC‐based integrated optoelectronic synthesiser for THz communications is described, which can be tuned continuously over the range 0.254–2.

Ultra-high-sensitivity two-dimensional bend sensor [PDF]
A multicore fibre Fabry-Perot-based strain sensor interrogated with tandem interferometry for bend measurement is described. Curvature in two dimensions is obtained by measuring the difference in strain between three co-located low finesse Fabry-Perot ...

Evaluation of the optical switching characteristics of erbium-doped fibres for the development of a fibre Bragg grating sensor interrogator [PDF]
A polling topology that employs optical switching based on the properties of erbium-doped fibres (EDFs) is used to interrogate an array of FBGs. The properties of the EDF are investigated in its pumped and un-pumped states and the EDFs’ switching ...

Magnetically programmable fibre Bragg gratings
An attractive force between magnetic poles was utilised to produce significant wavelength shifts in fibre Bragg gratings. Programmable magnets were used to controllably strain and shift the wavelength of the grating by more than 15 nm. The wavelength tuning is fast and the device requires no power to maintain the shifted wavelengths.

In situ method for power re-equalization of wavelength pulses inside of OCDMA codes [PDF]
A simple in-situ method to equalize power among individual wavelengths pulses representing two-dimensional wavelength-hopping time-spreading OCDMA code originally generated by a fibre Bragg grating-based OCDMA encoder is presented.
