Enhanced Signal-Associated Noise in a φ-OTDR System

Luc Thévenaz, Malak Mohamed Hossameldeen Omar Mohamed Galal, Suneetha Sebastian

Owing to their high sensitivity with respect to external measurands, Rayleigh-based distributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS) find their way into applications in many industrial and academic sectors. To further transcend the limit of these sensors in terms ...

Distributed measurement of mode group effective refractive index difference in a few mode optical fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Alejandro Dominguez Lopez

The possibility to perform distributed measurements of the effective refractive index difference between distinct modes in few mode optical fibers is demonstrated using phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometry. Effective refractive index differenc ...

SBS-based fiber sensors

Luc Thévenaz

The spectra of Brillouin scattering processes in optical fibers are affected by temperature, axial strain, and other quantities of interest. This dependence forms the basis for optical Brillouin scattering based optical fiber sensors. Since the first propo ...

A photonic integrated circuit-based erbium-doped amplifier

Rui Ning Wang, Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Anton Lukashchuk, Jijun He, Xinru Ji, Yang Liu, Zheru Qiu

Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers revolutionized long-haul optical communications and laser technology. Erbium ions could provide a basis for efficient optical amplification in photonic integrated circuits but their use remains impractical as a result of insuf ...

An optimized protocol for assessing changes in mouse whole-brain activity using opto-fMRI

Christina Maria Grimm, Valerio Zerbi

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in mouse brain, paired with spatially and temporally defined manipulations, offers a powerful tool to causally explain the effect of specific neuronal activity on brain network dynamics. Here, we present an opti ...

Temporal Talbot effect of optical dark pulse trains

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Jiaye Wu

The temporal Talbot effect describes the periodic self-imaging of an optical pulse train along dispersive propagation. This is well studied in the context of bright pulse trains, where identical or multiplied pulse trains with uniform bright waveforms can ...

A Photonic Integrated Circuit-Based Erbium-doped Waveguide Amplifier

Rui Ning Wang, Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Jijun He, Xinru Ji, Yang Liu, Zheru Qiu

We demonstrate an erbium-doped waveguide amplifier by erbium ion implantation in Si3N4 photonic integrated circuits, achieving 145 mW on-chip output power and more than 30 dB small-signal gain, which is on par with commercial fiber amplifiers and beyond st ...

All-optical switching in epsilon-near-zero asymmetric directional coupler

Qian Li, Jiaye Wu

We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating perform ...

A neural probe to sample brain fluid in nanoliter volumes for quantitative molecular studies

Joan Teixidor

Neural functions operate in tightly controlled conditions that are mediated by multiple electrical and chemical phenomena. Brain disorders such as Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease perturb these conditions and cause a loss of neurons, which impai ...
