Perspective: Hollow Core Optical Fibres for Ultraviolet and Visible Wavelengths

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hollow core optical fibres bypass material constraints that limit optical fibres at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths. However, their challenging fabrication has limited their development, and significant gains in performance remain possible. In this perspective we outline approaches to enable the next generation of fibres for shorter wavelengths ...

Optically Tunable Threshold Switching and Thermally Activated Transport in Planar Ag/MAPbI3 Thin Single‐Crystal Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Planar Ag/MAPbI3 thin single‐crystal halide perovskite devices show ultralow dark current and optically tunable threshold switching. Illumination enhances the polarity‐dependent hysteresis and shifts the switching voltage, whereas temperature‐dependent measurements reveal thermally activated, contact‐limited transport, underscoring the central role of ...

Supercontinuum generation in a multi-plate medium

Optics Express, 2016
We analyze femtosecond supercontinuum generation in a distribution of thin solid plates to show that the distributed scheme inhibits processes leading to pulse breakup while allowing spectral expansion to proceed as desired. We introduce basic criteria for setting the plate thickness or initial laser intensity and the location of each plate in the ...

All-fiber coherent supercontinuum generation in a cascade of silica, fluoride, and chalcogenide fibers

JPhys Photonics
We present an all-fiber coherent supercontinuum spanning the spectral range of 1.7–5.0 µ m from a cascade of silica, ZBLAN, and chalcogenide (ChG) nonlinear fibers (NLFs).

Dispersion-Engineered Step-Index Tellurite Fibers for Mid-Infrared Coherent Supercontinuum Generation from 1.5 to 4.5 μm with Sub-Nanojoule Femtosecond Pump Pulses

Applied Sciences, 2018
Mid-infrared supercontinuum generation from 1.5 to 4.5 µm with sub-nanojoule femtosecond pump pulses is demonstrated by using a short segment of dispersion-engineered step-index tellurite fiber with very low OH content.

Gate‐Tunable Polarity‐Reconfigurable Photovoltaic Response With Dual Linearity in NbS3/WSe2 Heterostructures for In‐Sensor Image Processing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An NbS3/WSe2 van der Waals heterostructure realizes a continuously gate‐tunable self‐powered photovoltaic response through interfacial band‐alignment modulation and reversible built‐in electric‐field switching. The short‐circuit photocurrent scales linearly with incident power density, while short‐circuit photoresponsivity varies linearly with gate ...

Twin‐Lever Multifunctional Meta‐Optics With High Longitudinal Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a single‐layer, CMOS‐compatible metasurface that allows for polarization‐programmable, achromatic broadband dual‐mode imaging with high longitudinal tolerance. The twin‐lever design combines bright‐field focusing and vortex‐based edge‐enhanced imaging while managing axial intensity distribution from 488 to 633 nm.

Nonlinear Phenomena of Ultra-Wide-Band Radiation in a Photonic Crystal Fibre

International Journal of Optics, 2011
We report the results of a numerical and experimental analysis of femtosecond pulse propagation in a highly nonlinear photonic crystal fibre (PCF). The propagation of ultrashort pulses in PCF is studied taking into account the effects of dispersion, self-

Unlocking Long‐Lived Charge‐Separated State in Pentamethine Cyanine Based on Anionic Hofmeister Effect for Photodynamic Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on the anionic Hofmeister effect, a universal strategy of incorporation of stereo‐π anion BPh4− into a series of Cy5 skeletons to unlock long‐lived charge‐separated states was reported, wherein the weak electronic coupling and low charge recombination driving force hinder the charge recombination process, elevating the oxygen‐independent ROS ...

Supercontinuum generation in silicon photonic wires

Optics Express, 2007
We observe spectral broadening of more than 350 nm, i.e., a 3/10-octave span, upon propagation of ultrashort 1.3-mum-wavelength optical pulses in a 4.7-mm-long silicon-photonic-wire waveguide. We measure the wavelength dependence of the spectral features and relate it to waveguide dispersion and input power.
