DG Ouzounov, FR Ahmad, D Muller, N Venkataraman… - Science, 2003 - science.org
The measured dispersion of a low-loss, hollow-core photonic band-gap fiber is anomalous
throughout most of the transmission band, and its variation with wavelength is large …

Tailored anomalous group-velocity dispersion in silicon channel waveguides

AC Turner, C Manolatou, BS Schmidt, M Lipson… - Optics express, 2006 - opg.optica.org
We present the first experimental demonstration of anomalous group-velocity dispersion

Strategies for high resolution imaging of epithelial ovarian cancer by laparoscopic nonlinear microscopy

RM Williams, A Flesken-Nikitin, LH Ellenson… - Translational …, 2010 - Elsevier
Ovarian cancer remains the most frequently lethal of the gynecologic cancers owing to the
late detection of this disease. Here, by using human specimens and three mouse models of …

Ultra-low threshold supercontinuum generation in sub-wavelength waveguides

MA Foster, AL Gaeta - Optics Express, 2004 - opg.optica.org
