Optical Phased Arrays on Photonic Integrated Circuit Platforms: Challenges, Opportunities, and Future Applications

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 14, 27 July 2026.
Integrated optical phased arrays are emerging as scalable engines for solid‐state beam steering and programmable wavefront control. This Review maps the field from beam‐steering principles and core building blocks to material platforms, system‐level bottlenecks, and application frontiers, highlighting how heterogeneous integration, aperiodic ...

Inverse‐Designed Silicon Nitride Bimodal Mode Converter for Interferometric Sensors

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 14, 27 July 2026.
Inverse‐designed bimodal mode converters are demonstrated on two silicon nitride platforms. The devices convert the fundamental mode into near‐balanced pairs of the fundamental and higher‐order modes up to the third order. They are compact and fabrication‐tolerant. Characterization of a bimodal interferometer incorporating these converters demonstrates

Long-period fiber gratings based on periodic microbends

Optics Letters, 1999
We demonstrate a new type of high-performance long-period fiber grating based on arc-induced periodic microbends. The fabrication method is simple and does not require special fibers. Flexibility in controlling the filter parameters makes it possible to produce arbitrary filter profiles by use of a simple apodization technique, which is difficult to do

All-optical switching in long-period fiber gratings

Optics Letters, 1997
Nonlinear pulse propagation in long-period fiber gratings is studied with a mode-locked Q -switched laser pulse approximately 80ps in duration at a wavelength of 1.05 microm . Optical switching, pulse reshaping, and optical limiting are found at intensities in the range of 1-20 GW/cm(2).

Dispersion control with use of long-period fiber gratings

Journal of the Optical Society of America A: Optics and Image Science, and Vision, 2000
Chirped long-period fiber gratings are analyzed for management of dispersion in optical fiber communications systems. A ray model is used to derive simple analytic expressions that describe the transmission, chromatic delay, and dispersion properties of chirped long-period fiber gratings. A numerical model based on coupled-mode theory is used to verify

Tunable mechanically induced long-period fiber gratings

Optics Letters, 2000
We report the experimental characterization of mechanically induced long-period fiber gratings (LPFG's) made by pressing a plate with periodic grooves against a short length of fiber. This filter, which is simple and inexpensive, exhibits transmission spectra and temperature stability similar to those of photoinduced LPFG's.

Optical fiber long-period grating sensors

Optics Letters, 1996
We present a novel class of highly sensitive sensors based on long-period fiber gratings that can be implemented with simple and inexpensive demodulation schemes. Temperature, strain, and refractive-index resolutions of 0.65 degrees C, 65.75 micro, and 7.69 x 10(-5), respectively, are demonstrated for gratings fabricated in standard telecommunication ...

Long-period fiber grating by electrical discharge

24th European Conference on Optical Communication. ECOC '98 (IEEE Cat. No.98TH8398), 2002
Long-period gratings were manufactured by applying step by step an electric discharge through a standard telecommunication fibre. The induced perturbation was so large that less than 20 steps are necessary to obtain a coupling length.

Long Period Fiber Gratings Inscribed by Periodically Tapering a Fiber

IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2014
A promising technique for inscribing long period fiber gratings (LPFGs) was demonstrated by only using a commercial splicer. The commercial splicer was developed secondarily to build up a new program for periodically tapering a single mode fiber. High-quality LPFGs with a low insertion loss of ~1 dB and a large resonant attenuation of more than -30 dB ...
