Theory of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Fibers for Highly Multimode Excitations

Physical Review X
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is often an unwanted loss mechanism in both active and passive fibers. Highly multimode excitation of fibers has been proposed as a novel route toward efficient SBS suppression.

Inter‐Theta‐Gram Spectroscopy: A General Super‐Spectral‐Resolution Scattering Method Demonstrated on Diamond

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Inter‐Theta‐Gram spectroscopy enables super‐spectral‐resolution Raman analysis by jointly reconstructing the excitation laser line and Raman peak during an etalon angle scan, yielding internally referenced Raman shifts. Demonstrated on lab‐grown versus natural diamond, it resolves 0.1–0.2 cm−1 Raman‐shift offsets that are invisible in conventional ...

Fiber-optic vibration sensor based on multimode fiber

Radioengineering, 2008
The purpose of this paper is to present a fiber- optic vibration sensor based on the monitoring of the mode distribution in a multimode optical fiber. Detection of vibrations and their parameters is possible through observation of the output speckle pattern from the multimode optical fiber.

Germanium‐Based Mid‐Infrared Integrated Photonics

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) spectral range is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum in which most of the molecules have vibrational and rotational resonances. Photonics integration in this wavelength range have thus seen a burst of interest in the recent years, mainly driven by applications related with the detection of chemical and biological ...

Non‐Uniform Programmable Photonic Waveguide Meshes

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Integrating defect cells into uniform hexagonal waveguide meshes overcomes the fundamental spectral and temporal limitations of programmable photonics. By leveraging the Vernier effect through non‐uniform coupled cavities, this architecture achieves a tenfold increase in free spectral range and ultra‐fast sampling times, paving the way for next ...
