We demonstrated a simple design of a monolithic all-fiber side-coupled combiner for counter-pumped amplifiers that requires no special fiber processing systems for fabrication.

Design of Highly Elliptical Core Ten-Mode Fiber for Space Division Multiplexing With 2 × 2 MIMO
In this paper, we propose a weakly coupled few-mode fiber requiring only 2 × 2 multi-in multi-out equalizer blocks, which makes it compatible with standard coherent receivers with polarization diversity.

Demonstration of amplitude-distortion correction by modal dispersal and phase conjugation [PDF]
We demonstrate experimentally and explain theoretically polarization-preserving imaging through a lossy amplitude-distorting medium. This is accomplished by propagating the beam, before its arrival at the lossy distorting medium, through a (multi) mode ...

High-quality polarization entanglement state preparation and manipulation in standard telecommunication channels [PDF]
We report a novel and simple approach for generating near-perfect quality polarization entanglement in a fully guided-wave fashion. Both deterministic pair separation into two adjacent telecommunication channels and the paired photons' temporal walk-off ...

Modeling a Fully Polarized Optical Fiber Suitable for Photonic Integrated Circuits or Sensors
A method is developed to make an optical fiber that only transmits fully linearly polarized light and maintains the polarization state. The method for efficient ingesting laser into this fiber is also reported.

Coupling of ultrathin tapered fibers with high-Q microsphere resonators at cryogenic temperatures and observation of phase-shift transition from undercoupling to overcoupling [PDF]
We cooled ultrathin tapered fibers to cryogenic temperatures and controllably coupled them with high-Q microsphere resonators at a wavelength close to the optical transition of diamond nitrogen vacancy centers.

Two-photon, fiber-coupled, super-resolution microscope for biological imaging
Imaging sub-diffraction dynamics of neural nanostructures involved in behaviors such as learning and memory in a freely moving animal is not possible with existing techniques.

In this paper intermodal modulational instability (IM-MI) is analyzed in a multimode fiber where several spatial and polarization modes propagate. The coupled nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations describing the modal evolution in the fiber are linearized ...
