Light-matter-interaction is an intriguing research hotspot that covers the linear and nonlinear control of electromagnetic waves in various optical media. Since it is an immensely broad topic, our work focuses on the extra- and intra-cavity manipulation of ...
A new electro‐optic phase shifter device architecture consisting of two lateral rail electrodes in doped silicon close to a waveguide with a liquid crystal cladding is demonstrated. Starting with a completed silicon photonics wafer of IMEC's iSiPP50G platf ...
Frequency conversion in nonlinear materials is an extremely useful solution to the generation of new optical frequencies. Often, it is the only viable solution to realize light sources highly relevant for applications in science and industry. In particular ...
We report the resonantly enhanced radiative emission from a single SiGe quantum dot (QD), which is deterministically embedded into a bichromatic photonic crystal resonator (PhCR) at the position of its largest modal electric field by a scalable method. By ...
Spectral tunability methods used in optical communications and signal processing leveraging optical, electrical, and acousto-optic effects typically involve spectral truncation that results in energy loss. Here we demonstrate temperature tunable spectral b ...
Second-harmonic generation in nonlinear materials can be greatly enhanced by realizing doubly resonant cavities with high quality factors. However, fulfilling such doubly resonant condition in photonic crystal (PhC) slab cavities is a long-standing challen ...
In this paper we demonstrate distributed shape sensing based on stimulated Brillouin scattering in a multi-core fiber (MCF). Brillouin optical time-domain analysis with differential pulse-width pairs is implemented to measure the local tangential strain-in ...
The spectral broadening of the pump pulse through self phase modulation in a time domain distributed Brillouin sensor is demonstrated to have a non-negligible detrimental effect, leading to a doubling of the effective gain linewidth after some 20 km in sta ...
