Chaos generation in a discrete-mode (DM) laser subject to optical feedback is experimentally explored. The results show that a DM laser with only optical feedback can produce flat broadband chaos under an optimized feedback ratio. The effect of the laser bias current on the bandwidth and flatness of chaos is also investigated. It shows that the higher bias current, the better the flatness that can be obtained at the optimal feedback ratio.The non-steady-state photoelectromotive force is excited in a monoclinic gallium oxide crystal at wavelength λ = 457 nm. The crystal grown in an oxygen atmosphere is insulating and highly transparent for a visible light, nevertheless, the formation of dynamic space-charge gratings and observation of the photo-EMF signal is achieved without application of any electric field to the sample. The dependencies of the signal amplitude on the frequency of phase modulation, light intensity, spatial frequency and light polarization are measured. The material demonstrates the anisotropy along the [100] and [010] directions, namely, there is a small difference in the transport parameters and a pronounced polarization dependence of the signal. The crystal's photoconductivity, responsivity and diffusion length of electrons are estimated for the chosen light wavelength and compared with the ones for other wide-bandgap crystals.We evaluate the modes for generalized Schell-model planar source whose complex degree of coherence (CDC) is a function of the n-th power difference of two position coordinates instead of their direct distance between two source points. We discuss through two examples how new classes of CDCs can be devised and how they affect the radiation fields. It is demonstrated that the light beams generated by these families of sources carry interesting propagation characteristics, such as the lateral self-shifting and the self-focusing effect with controllable focal length determined by the non-trivial phase, power n and other source parameters.In this study, photonic crystals with a partial bandgap are demonstrated in the visible region using single-crystal diamonds. Quasi-three-dimensional photonic crystal structures are fabricated in the surface of the single-crystal diamonds using a tetrahedron Faraday cage that enables angled dry etching in three directions simultaneously. The reflection spectra can be controlled by varying the lattice constant of the photonic crystals. In addition, nitrogen-vacancy center single-photon sources are implanted on top of the diamond photonic crystals, and doubled collection efficiency from the light sources is achieved.Effects of temperature and pressure on the threshold value of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in seawater were analyzed theoretically and experimentally. Theoretically, the change of threshold value of SBS versus the ocean depth was simulated based on the International Thermodynamic Equation of Seawater-2010 (TEOS-10) and the World Ocean Atlas 2013 (WOA13). Experimentally, an ocean temperature and pressure simulator (OTPS) was designed to measure the threshold value of SBS through simulating the changes of temperature and pressure of seawater in 0∼1000 meters. The theoretical and experimental results exhibit that the threshold value of SBS decreases with the increase of temperature at the same seawater pressure and increases with the increase of pressure at the same seawater temperature. The results imply that the SBS process is more likely to occur in upper seawater of lower-latitude areas. The theoretical and experimental results are helpful for remote sensing in ocean using the SBS LIDAR.Super-oscillation phenomenon has attracted considerable interests due to its great ability of far-field super-resolution imaging. However, most super-oscillatory lenses were limited by chromatic aberration and single functionality, hence deeply restricting the flexibility of the super-oscillatory devices in practical applications. Here, an achromatic polarization-multiplexed super-oscillatory metasurface has been proposed to realize flexible light field modulations at different colors, i.e. link= MEK inhibitor side effects 473 nm (blue), 532 nm (green), and 632.8 nm (red). The super-oscillatory metasurface can achieve achromatic diffraction-limited focusing under x-polarized light illumination and achromatic sub-diffraction focusing under y-polarized light illumination. Furthermore, it can also realize multi-wavelength super-oscillatory achromatic focusing with different super-resolution abilities. The proposed method could simplify the super-resolution optical imaging system and is expected to have widespread applications in color imaging, microscopy, and machine vision.In optical spectroscopic systems where unwanted optical scattering cannot be eliminated, Fabry-Pérot etalons cause unpredictable changes in the spectral background. Frequent system calibration is then required to maintain the desired measurement accuracy, which presents a major limitation to the spectrometer. We introduce a computational approach to mitigate the adverse effects of optical fringing without hardware modifications. Motivated by experimental observations of complicated fringe behaviors, we simplify the problem by decomposing the fringe background into component etalons that can be addressed according to their individual characteristics. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated on a silicon photonic methane sensor, where accurate measurements of methane concentration are obtained from spectral data strongly affected by optical fringes.Magnetoplasmons are the coupling of an external magnetic field and a plasmon or a localized plasmon, in the case of nanoparticles. We present a theoretical study, in the quasi-static limit, of the plasmonic response of nanoparticles when a constant magnetic field is applied. The plasmonic modes split into two satellite peaks with a frequency shift proportional to the magnetic field. The constant of proportionality is the effective Bohr magneton. This splitting of the fundamental plasmonic mode is akin to the splitting of energy levels in the Zeeman effect. The results are valid for any material that has a plasmonic response. For higher magnetic fields, the frequency shift of the splitting becomes non-linear with the magnetic field as what happens with the non-linear Zeeman effect.Tailoring spectral properties of photon pairs is of great importance for optical quantum information and measurement applications. High-resolution spectral measurement is a key technique for engineering spectral properties of photons, making them ideal for various quantum applications. Here we demonstrate spectral measurements and optimization of frequency-entangled photon pairs produced via spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC), utilizing frequency-resolved sum-frequency generation (SFG), the reverse process of SPDC. A joint phase-matching spectrum of a nonlinear crystal around 1580 nm is captured with a 40 pm resolution and a > 40 dB signal-to-noise ratio, which is significantly improved compared to traditional frequency-resolved coincidence measurements. MEK inhibitor side effects Moreover, our scheme is applicable to collinear degenerate sources whose characterization is difficult with previously demonstrated stimulated difference frequency generation (DFG). We also illustrate that the observed phase-matching function is useful for finding an optimal pump spectrum to maximize the spectral indistinguishability of SPDC photons. We expect that our precise spectral characterization technique will be useful tool for characterizing and tailoring SPDC sources for a wide range of optical quantum applications.We implemented a novel compact antenna by applying a metasurface with stereo elements (stereo-MS) as the superstrate of a patch antenna. The stereo-MS, an array of stereo patches printed on a grooved dielectric substrate, enabled the footprint miniaturization and bandwidth enhancement of the patch antenna. The overall size reduction of the stereo-MS antenna is over 38% compared with the conventional plane metasurface (plane-MS) antenna working in the same frequency range. A prototype antenna working at 5.3 GHz was designed, fabricated, and measured. Experiments demonstrated the fractional impedance bandwidth of the antenna was 44.5% at criteria |S11 | less then -10 dB, covering the frequencies 4.18 to 6.56 GHz, and the average gain about 6.9 dBi in the band. Experimental results were found in very good agreement with the design, which confirms the functionality of stereo-MS in antenna minimization. Our antenna features a compact size (0.409 λ02) and low profile (3.024 mm). The stereo-MSs provide a new way for the size miniaturization of microwave and optical devices, such as antennas.Random fiber lasers are of tremendous interest to diverse applications for optical fiber sensing, speckle-free imaging. To date, random fiber lasers with fundamental mode oscillation have been well developed. link2 link2 However, controllable oscillating spatial mode in random fiber lasers have not been reported yet. Here, we propose and demonstrate a few-mode random fiber laser with a switchable oscillating spatial mode based on mode injection locking. An external signal light is injected to realize the locking of transverse mode in this random fiber laser and the direct oscillations of the fundamental mode, hybrid mode, and high order mode can be realized, respectively. This random fiber laser operates in the high-order LP11 mode stably with a threshold of as low as 88 mW. High efficiency and high purity cylindrical vector beams can be obtained by removing the degeneracy of the LP11 mode. This work may pave a path towards random fiber lasers with controllable spatial modes for specific applications in mode division multiplexing, imaging, and laser material processing.Early radar warning is a significant step to lessen the fine scanning range of a receiver. The small size two-dimension (2-D) angle-of-arrival (AOA) estimation part with moderate accuracy and sensitivity is important for an early radar warning receiver. MEK inhibitor side effects link3 In our method, we specially design an L-shaped antenna array (L-sAA) and connect it with dual-polarization binary phase shift keying modulator (DP-BPSKM). The dual-sideband (DSB) modulation is performed to transfer most of the optical power to electrical, so as to increase the sensitivity. It is also possible to map the AOA information of the incoming beam to photo-detected electrical power without a high extinction ratio modulator or optical filter. During the estimation, the 2-D AOA is firstly measured, whose measurement range is 18.22°∼90° and the measurement error is lower than 1°. Then, based on the 2-D AOA estimation results, the third one is mathematically calculated to construct 3-D location of the target. Noteworthy, the amplitude comparison function (ACF) is adopted in this method to make the system response irrelative to the received signal power, which endows the system with signal power fluctuation immunity. Experimental results show that this method is capable of measuring a single-tone signal and a bandwidth signal. This structure is very concise and meets the potential of on-chip integration.Nanophotonic particle manipulation exploits unique light shaping capabilities of nanophotonic devices to trap, guide, rotate and propel particles in microfluidic channels. Recent introduction of metalens into microfluidics research demonstrates the new capability of using nanophotonics devices for far-field optical manipulation. In this work we demonstrate, via numerical simulation, the first tunable metalens tweezers that function under dual-beam illumination. link3 The phase profile of the metalens is modulated by controlling the relative strength and phase of the two coherent incident light beams. As a result, the metalens creates a thin sheet of focus inside a microchannel. Changes to the illumination condition allow the focus to be swept across the microchannel, thereby producing a controllable and reconfigurable path for particle transport. Particle routing in a Y-branch junction, for both nano- and microparticles, is evaluated as an example functionality for the tunable metalens tweezers. This work shows that tunable far-field particle manipulation can be achieved using near-field nano-engineering and coherent control, opening a new way for the integration of nanophotonics and microfluidics.
