High Core count Multicore Fiber Amplifiers
We will review our work on high core count, up to 32-core, cladding pumped multicore Erbium/Ytterbium-doped fiber amplifiers, and their successful operations as in-line amplifiers in space-division multiplexed systems.

Space-division multiplexing for fiber-wireless communications
We envision the application of optical Space-division Multiplexing (SDM) to the next generation fiber-wireless communications as a firm candidate to increase the end user capacity and provide adaptive radiofrequency-photonic interfaces.

Miniature Twist/Rotation Fabry Perot Sensor Based on a Four-Core Fiber
This paper presents a miniature Fabry Perot twist/rotation sensor. The presented sensor consists of a single lead-in multicore fiber, which has four eccentrically positioned cores, a special asymmetrical microstructure, similar to a truncated cylinder ...

Optimizing astrophotonic spatial reformatters using simulated on-sky performance [PDF]
One of the most useful techniques in astronomical instrumentation is image slicing. It enables a spectrograph to have a more compact angular slit, whilst retaining throughput and increasing resolving power.

Reconfigurable structured light generation in a multicore fibre amplifier
Structured light is a valuable addition to many optical applications. Here, the authors introduce a method for producing tailorable structured light beams at the output of a multicore fiber amplifier by controlling the input to each fiber core.

Characterizing the variation of propagation constants in multicore fibre [PDF]
We demonstrate a numerical technique that can evaluate the core-to-core variations in propagation constant in multicore fibre. Using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo process, we replicate the interference patterns of light that has coupled between the cores ...

Crosstalk Impacts on Homogeneous Weakly-Coupled Multicore Fiber Based IM/DD System
We numerically discussed crosstalk impacts on homogeneous weakly-coupled multicore fiber based intensity modulation/direct-detection (IM/DD) systems taking into account mean crosstalk power fluctuation, walk-off between cores, laser frequency offset, and
