Towards microwave-to-optical quantum transduction with barium titanate/strontium titanate integrated photonics

The faithful bidirectional quantum coherent conversion of microwave (5 GHz) and optical (193.5 THz) quantum states will become essential for future quantum networks. Due to their low transition frequency, qubit states are quickly destroyed at room temperat ...

Characterization of flat-fielding systems for quantitative microscopy

Suliana Manley, Dora Mahecic, Khalid Ashraf Mohie Ibrahim

Optical flat-fielding systems, such as field-mapping or integration-based beam shapers, are used to transform nonuniform illumination into uniform illumination. Thus, flat-fielding paves the way for imaging that is independent of position within a field of ...

A Monolithic Gimbal Micro-Mirror Fabricated and Remotely Tuned with a Femtosecond Laser

Yves Bellouard, Saood Ibni Nazir

With the advent of ultrafast lasers, new manufacturing techniques have come into existence. In micromachining, the use of femtosecond lasers not only offers the possibility for three-dimensional monolithic fabrication inside a single optically transparent ...

Advanced Diamond Microfabrication for Microoptics and Photonics

Marcell Kristof Kiss

Diamond is an exceptional material - hard, stiff, transparent, which makes it ideal for the fabrication of optical and mechanical systems that take advantage of these properties. Diamond is not only "better", but it offers the possibility of integrating br ...

Tunable photonic delay lines in optical fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Sang Hoon Chin

A comprehensive overview is presented about optical fiber-based tunable photonic delay lines, which have been steadily developed over the last decade for the realization of all-optically controlled timing functions. The most widely used techniques, such as ...

Detrimental effect of self-phase modulation on the performance of Brillouin distributed fiber sensors

Luc Thévenaz

We show that the spectral broadening of the pump pulse through self-phase modulation in a time-domain distributed Brillouin sensor has a considerably detrimental effect in the measurement, especially in the case of long distances and high-resolution pulses ...
