This paper proposes an optical fiber sensor based on multimode interference (MMI) with a
lateral offset structure to measure tensile strain. The coupling ratio of each higher-order …

We present an optofluidic droplet dye laser that is generated by an array of microfluidic
nozzles fabricated on a polycarbonate chip. A droplet resonator forms upon pressurizing the …

The optofluidic dye laser serves as an important on-chip optical source in microfluidic
technology for a breadth of applications. One of the ultimate goals of such a light source is …

Capillary optical fibers with hole diameters of several micrometers are important for novel
plasmonic applications and medical diagnosis. In order to ensure the optical functionality of …

We investigate the group velocity distribution of waveguide modes in the presence of
disorder. The results are based on extensive numerical simulations of disordered optical …

In this dissertation, I investigate the possibility of lasing and nonlinear phenomena in
completely solid-state transverse Anderson localizing optical fibers (TALOFs). I examine …

Optical Society of America. In this chapter, we present optofluidic droplet dye laser that is
