Cost-effective equalization of electro-optic frequency combs in a Sagnac interferometer

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Ivan Cardea

We present a cost-effective electro-optic frequency comb generation and equalization method using a single phase modulator inserted in a Sagnac interferometer layout. The equalization relies on the interference of comb lines generated in both clockwise and ...

Probing unconventional performance of fiber resonators: light storage, generation and manipulation

Ivan Cardea

This thesis aims at investigating the performance of figure-9 (figure-of-nine) optical fiber resonators as a practical solution for light storage, light generation and manipulation. The first part of the thesis focuses on a theoretical and experimental stu ...

From NANOGrav to LIGO with metastable cosmic strings

Valerie Fiona Domcke

We interpret the recent NANOGrav results in terms of a stochastic gravitational wave background from metastable cosmic strings. The observed amplitude of a stochastic signal can be translated into a range for the cosmic string tension and the mass of magne ...

Unidirectional isolator-free 2 micron fiber lasers

Svyatoslav Kharitonov

This thesis presents results of a research on unidirectional isolator-free cavity lasers, exploiting thulium-doped fiber (TDF) as amplification medium and operating in \unit[2]{\mu m} wavelength range. For fibre ring resonator, an optical isolator should b ...

Broadband Characterization of ZBLAN Fiber for Short- Wave Infrared Applications Using All-Fiber Interferometer

Camille Sophie Brès, Svyatoslav Kharitonov

Group-velocity dispersion, third-order dispersion and propagation losses of 14m normal dispersion ZBLAN fiber are directly and continuously measured over 1500-2100nm range using all-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The fiber is then used for dispersion c ...

Complex index refraction tomography with sub ?/6-resolution

Christian Depeursinge, Nicolas Pavillon, Yann Jérôme Michel Pascal Cotte

The present invention discloses a method to improve the image resolution of a microscope. This improvement is based on the mathematical processing of the complex field computed from the measurements with a microscope of the wave emitted or scattered by the ...

Shot noise, refractive index tomography and aberrations estimation in digital holographic microscopy

Florian Charrière

The present thesis develops some specific aspects of digital holographic microscopy (DHM), namely the effect of shot noise on the phase image accuracy, the use of DHM in micro-tomography and in aberrations evaluation of a microscope objective (MO). DHM is ...

Characterization of microlenses by digital holographic microscopy

Pierre Marquet, Christian Depeursinge, Jonas Kühn, Tristan Colomb, Etienne Cuche, Florian Charrière, Frédéric Montfort

We demonstrate the use of digital holographic microscopy (DHM) as a metrological tool in micro-optics testing. Measurement principles are compared with those performed with Twyman-Green, Mach-Zehnder, and white-light interferometers. Measurements performed ...

Multiple optical trapping in high gradient interference fringes

René Salathé, Fabrice Merenda, Johann Rohner

In biological investigations, many protocols using optical trapping call for the possibility to trap a large number of particles simultaneously. Interference fringes provide a solution for massively parallel micro-manipulation of mesoscopic objects. Concur ...
