Parametric frequency comb generation using silicon core fiber [PDF]

, 2021
We demonstrate all-fiber frequency comb generation using a 10-mm-length silicon core fiber as the parametric mixer. We achieved 8 dB spectral flatness over 20 nm bandwidth, generating 90 lines at 26 GHz line spacing.

Frequency comb generation threshold via second-harmonic excitation in χ(2) optical microresonators

APL Photonics, 2020
We investigate the threshold of χ(2) frequency comb generation in lithium niobate whispering gallery microresonators theoretically and experimentally. When generating a frequency comb via second-harmonic excitation, also commonly known as second-harmonic

Spectral line-by-line pulse shaping of on-chip microresonator frequency combs

, 2011
Recently, on-chip comb generation methods based on nonlinear optical modulation in ultrahigh-quality-factor monolithic microresonators have been demonstrated, where two pump photons are transformed into sideband photons in a four-wave-mixing process ...

Origami‐Inspired Structural Design for Aquatic‐Terrestrial Amphibious Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a lightweight amphibious origami robot actuated by a single shape memory alloy wire. A rigid foldable origami structure with displacement amplification enables efficient terrestrial crawling and aquatic swimming. The addition of fan‐shaped units allows controllable turning in both environments.

Spectral Peaked Optical Frequency Comb for Highly Sensitive Spectroscopy

Advanced Photonics Research
Optical frequency combs represent a breakthrough in the field of metrology. Because an optical frequency comb has a large number of comb modes, the optical energy is dispersed over the comb modes, and the optical energy per comb mode is very small.

Efficient microresonator frequency combs

eLight
AbstractThe rapid development of optical frequency combs from their table-top origins towards chip-scale platforms has opened up exciting possibilities for comb functionalities outside laboratories. Enhanced nonlinear processes in microresonators have emerged as a mainstream comb-generating mechanism with compelling advantages in size, weight, and ...

Functional Analysis of Ligand‐Gated Chloride Channels in a Cnidarian Sheds Light on the Evolution of Inhibitory Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover a large variety of putative inhibitory ligand‐gated ion channels (LGICs) in the phylum Cnidaria, the sister group to all bilaterian animals. Phylogenetic analysis suggests a complex evolutionary history of inhibitory LGICs with diverse neurotransmitter ligands.
