Semiconductor photonics is an advanced field, both from fundamental and applicative points
of view, aimed at the integration of the unique features of optical communications and …

Room-temperature ionic liquids consist of organic cations combined with a wide range of
inorganic or organic anions. This particular structure makes them nonvolatile …

With unique electronic and optical attributes and dangling-bond-free surface, two-
dimensional (2D) materials have broadened the functionalities of photodetectors. Here, we …

The interferometric signals produced in conventional dual-comb laser ranging require
femtosecond lasers with long-term carrier-envelope offset frequency stability, and are limited …

A passively mode-locked Tm: YLF laser emitting at 2.3 μm is reported for the first time, to the
best of our knowledge. The continuous-wave stable mode-locking operation is obtained with …

Optical solitary waves (solitons) that interact in a nonlinear system can bind and form a
structure similar to a molecule. The rich dynamics of this process have created a demand for …

A definitive goal for optical performance monitoring in an optical communications network is
to provide comprehensive signal quality information in a cost-effective manner. This paper …

Since the recent demonstration of chip-scale, silicon-based, photonic devices, silicon
photonics provides a viable and promising platform for modern nonlinear optics. The …

We investigate the nonlinear optical response of a commercial extended-wavelength In 0.81
Ga 0.19 As uncooled photodetector. Degenerate two-photon absorption in the mid-infrared …

We describe a cross-correlation-based frequency-resolved optical gating (XFROG)
technique for simultaneously measuring the amplitude and phase of two ultrashort pulses …
