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.

A simple method for fabricating phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings with flexible choice of centre wavelength [PDF]
A simple technique for fabricating phase-shifted fibre Bragg gratings (PSFBGs) without the use of a phase-shifted phase mask is presented. Two, 3-mm long, standard fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) were inscribed sequentially in singlemode fibre at the same

An Optical Fibre Depth (Pressure) Sensor for Remote Operated Vehicles in Underwater Applications
A miniature sensor for accurate measurement of pressure (depth) with temperature compensation in the ocean environment is described. The sensor is based on an optical fibre Extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) combined with a Fibre Bragg Grating ...
