Generation of supercontinuum bottle beam using an axicon

Optics Express, 2007
A supercontinuum bottle beam was successfully produced by focusing a supercontinuum laser beam after passing through an axicon. The supercontinuum radiation was generated from a microstructured fiber pumped by a self-kerr-lens mode-locked femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser. The cross-section intensity distributions of the generated bottle were recorded by a

Broadband Parametric Amplification in AlGaAs‐on‐Insulator Nanowaveguides

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Harnessing the exceptional nonlinearity of AlGaAs‐on‐insulator nanowaveguides, four‐wave‐mixing parametric amplification achieves a record net on‐chip gain of 56 dB and a gain bandwidth exceeding 415 nm at telecom wavelengths. These results establish AlGaAsOI as a powerful platform for compact, high‐performance integrated nonlinear optical ...

Comparison of optical features in nitrobenzene-core photonic crystal fiber with hexagonal and square lattices in the claddings

Communications in Physics
This paper proposes two novel photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) with a nitrobenzene core, designed using hexagonal and square lattice structures. The characteristics of the PCFs were numerically analyzed in detail and compared to selecting the proposed ...

Multispectral Concentric Grafted Perfect Vector Vortex Beam

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Multispectral structured light offers powerful opportunities for increasing information capacity. A multispectral concentric grafted perfect vector vortex beam is proposed to engineer topological charges and polarization. A metasurface can graft different perfect vector vortex beams across concentric spatial regions and extend this concept to ...

Wavelength and Full‐Polarization Encrypted Orbital Angular Momentum Meta‐Holography

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
By multiplexing three independent degrees of freedom of light, a single‐layer geometric‐phase metasurface encrypts 24 distinct holographic images across 3 wavelengths, 12 pairs of orthogonal polarizations, and 4 OAM channels, taking advantage of axial chromatic dispersion to reconstruct the color images at the same plane. ABSTRACT Multiplexing multiple

In vivo differentiation of scarring alopecia using line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography: a pilot study

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and Objectives: Diagnosing cicatricial alopecia is challenging. Even with histology, a definitive diagnosis cannot always be made. Line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC‐OCT), a non‐invasive imaging method with high resolution used in vivo, has proven helpful in diagnosing scarring alopecia.

Manipulating the Propagation of Solitons with Solid-Core Photonic Bandgap Fibers

International Journal of Optics, 2012
We review the dynamics of soliton self-frequency shift induced by Raman gain in special solid-core photonic bandgap fibers and its consequences in terms of supercontinuum generation.
