Germanium oxide (GeO2) and tellurium oxide (TeO2) based glasses are classed as the
heavy metal oxide glasses, with phonon energies ranging between 740cm− 1 and 880cm …

Three centuries after Newton's experiments on the decomposition of white light into its
spectral components and the synthesis of white light from various colors, nonlinear-optical …

Nonlinear fiber optics concerns with the nonlinear optical phenomena occurring inside
optical fibers. Although the field ofnonlinear optics traces its beginning to 1961, when a ruby …

We report on the progress of bismuth oxide glass holey fibers for nonlinear device
applications. The use of micron-scale core diameters has resulted in a very high nonlinearity …

We report for the first time use of 3D-printed metal extrusion dies for the extrusion of an
optical material into an extrudate at elevated temperatures. Using lead-silicate glass as the …

We report a significant advance in preform extrusion and die design, which has allowed for
the first time the fabrication of complex structured preforms using soft glass and polymer …

We experimentally demonstrate enhanced Kerr nonlinear effects in highly nonlinear
As_2Se_3 chalcogenide fiber tapered down to sub-wavelength waist diameter of 1.2 μm …

In this paper, the properties of nonsilica glasses and the related technology for
microstructured fiber fabrication are reviewed. Numerical simulation results are shown using …

Optical nonlinearities give rise to many ubiquitous effects in optical fibers. These effects are
interesting in themselves and can be detrimental in optical communications, but they also …
