Peculiarities of second harmonic generation with chirped femtosecond pulses at high conversion efficiency

Pierre-Marc Jean Marie Dansette

Frequency doubling of an infrared laser radiation in non-linear optical crystals is a widely used technique to obtain light in the visible range. The second harmonic generation process is influenced by several well-known parameters. In this article we stud ...

Adaptive Laser Welding Control: A Reinforcement Learning Approach

Giulio Masinelli, Silvio Zanoli

Despite extensive research efforts in the field of laser welding, the imperfect repeatability of the weld quality still represents an open topic. Indeed, the inherent complexity of the underlying physical phenomena prevents the implementation of an effecti ...

Multimode microwave circuit optomechanics as a platform to study coupled quantum harmonic oscillators

Nathan Rafaël Bernier

Harmonic oscillators might be one of the most fundamental entities described by physics. Yet they stay relevant in recent research. The topological properties associated with exceptional points that can occur when two modes interact have generated much int ...

New Insights on Output Capacitance Losses in Wide-Band-Gap Transistors

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Mohammad Samizadeh Nikooytabalvandani, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera

The low ON-resistance of wide-band-gap (WBG) transistors is a key feature for efficient power converters, however, the anomalous loss in their output capacitance (COSS) severely limits their performance at high switching frequencies. Characterizing COSS-lo ...

Physics of Dissipative Kerr Solitons in Optical Microresonators and Application to Frequency Synthesis

Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas

Optical-frequency combs, that is spectra of equidistant coherent optical lines, have revolutionized the precision measurements of time and frequency. In 2007 a new method to generate optical frequency combs was discovered. In contrast to conventional gener ...

Kerr Comb-based Transfer Oscillator for Ultralow Noise Photonic Microwave Synthesis

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Romain Dany Bruno Bouchand

We perform optical frequency division of an ultra-stable laser by using a crystalline-based Kerr frequency comb as a transfer oscillator. We demonstrate absolute phase noise levels of -110 dBc/Hz at 200-Hz offset from a 14 GHz carrier. (C) 2019 The Author( ...

TIA Linearity Analysis for Current Mode Receivers

Catherine Dehollain

Current-mode signal processing offers superior linearity and flexibility in front-end implementation. The linearity of a low-input-impedance Trans-Impedance Amplifier (TIA), which is used as a buffer stage that follows a passive mixer, is important in dete ...

Flexible Width Nyquist Pulse Based on a Single Mach-Zehnder Modulator

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Simon Julien Fabbri

We present a Nyquist pulse generation technique based on a single Mach-Zehnder modulator driven by a multi-harmonic electrical signal. The direct control of the RF components yields a range of 10 GHz sinc-shaped pulse train. ...
