Mega-Hertz repetition rate broadband nano-second pulses from an actively mode-locked Yb-fiber laser
摘要： This work demonstrates an actively mode-locked all-normal dispersion Yb-fiber ring laser, delivering pulses of few nano-seconds (ns) to sub-ns duration at a 4 MHz repetition rate. Employing a filterless cavity architecture and different, long-length intra-cavity nonlinear fibers; a broadband output spectrum in the 1060–1140 nm wavelength region was obtained. With an increasing pump power, the pulse width reduced along with the appearence of new pulses, resulting into a muti-pulsing output. For a fixed pump power, the number of pulses and the amount of spectral broadening varied for different non-linear fibers. In the multi-pulsing state, the pulses were found to be located seperately in both time and wavelength, where Raman stokes corresponding to individual pulses could also be observed. The maximum output pulse energy achieved in a single pulse state was around 8.7 nJ, which increased to 14.5 nJ in a multi-pulse state. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a filterless active mode-locked fiber ring laser producing high-repetition rate broadband nano-second pulses in single and multi-pulse states at 1 μm.

KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+ Core-Active-Shell Nanoparticles with Broadband Down-Shifting Luminescence at 1.5 μm for Polymer-Based Waveguide Amplifiers
摘要： In this study, we prepared cubic-phase oleic-acid-coated KMnF3: Yb3+,Er3+ nanoparticles (NPs) and NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs, which were about 23 nm. From the down-shifting emissions spectra of the two NPs obtained by 980 nm excitation, we observed the fact that the KMnF3: 18%Yb3+,1%Er3+ NPs were a luminescent material with a broadband near-infrared emission of 1.5 μm, and full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of 55 cm?1, which was wider than that of the NaYF4: 18%Yb3+,1% NPs. Therefore, we believe that the oleic-acid-coated KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs have great potential in fabricating broadband waveguide ampli?ers. Through epitaxial growth of a KMnF3: Yb3+ active-shell on the core NPs, we compounded KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+@KMnF3:Yb3+ core-active-shell NPs whose 1.5-μm infrared emissions intensity was 3.4 times as strong as that of the core NPs. In addition, we manufactured waveguide ampli?ers using KMnF3:18%Yb3+,1%Er3+@KMnF3:2%Yb3+ NPs as the core materials of the waveguide ampli?ers. When the input signal power was 0.2 mW and the pump power was 200 mW, we achieved a relative gain of 0.6 dB at 1534 nm in a 10-mm long waveguide.

A Facile Film-Nanoctahedron Assembly Route to Plasmonic Metamaterial Absorbers at Visible Frequencies
摘要： Plasmonic metamaterial absorbers (MAs) with broadband and near-perfect absorption properties in the visible region were successfully fabricated via a facile film-colloidal nanoparticle (NP) assembly method. In this approach, colloidal octahedral Au NPs were employed as the surface meta-atoms of MAs, while the nanoscale-thick SiO2 and Al films were used as the dielectric spacer and reflector respectively. It is worth noting that the Au nanoctahedron were randomly assembled onto the Al-SiO2 films, and no effort was made to precisely control their spatial arrangements. The optical characterization showed that the as-prepared MAs exhibited broadband high absorption (average absorptivity above 85%) within the whole visible spectrum for a broad range of incident angles (0°–60°). In particular, two polarization-independent near-perfect absorption peaks (absorptance above 99%) were recorded near 540 nm and 727 nm respectively. Moreover, the absorption properties of the MAs can be effectively controlled and tailored by varying the geometry (the thickness of the dielectric spacer and the surface coverages of the Au nanoctahedron). Electromagnetic simulations further demonstrated that enhanced Mie resonances and strong plasmonic coupling effects were critical for the designed MAs. This work here may provide an efficient and alternative route for the design of scalable visible light absorbers for applications such as solar cells, photothermalvoltaics, and biochemical sensors.

Bandwidth enhancing method using tri-ring resonator metamaterial for small devices
摘要： Metamaterials are composite structures of the specific behavior for electromagnetic properties of permittivity, permeability, and refraction, which are not commonly found in regular materials. Metamaterial structure, which has negative value of permittivity and permeability that shows passband response in transmission line, where as if any of these two properties has opposite polarity then it shows stopband response. These behaviors of metamaterial are frequency dependent and have resonance for particular frequencies. At frequency resonance, the traditional metamaterials have narrow band response and to improve its frequency bandwidth, a method using tri-ring resonator is proposed with increasing number of order of resonator. The proposed metamaterial structure is simulated in full-wave simulator and MATLAB tool is used to analyze the properties of metamaterial structure from simulated S-parameter. Proposed technique gives flexibility to use the design for multiple application like, rejection filter for Bluetooth 2.4 GHz, Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5 GHz), WiMAX (2.5 and 3.4 GHz), and 5G (3.4-3.8 GHz).

Inverse design and demonstration of broadband grating couplers
摘要： We present a gradient-based optimization strategy to design broadband grating couplers. Using this method, we are able to reach, and often surpass, a user-specified target bandwidth during optimization. The designs produced for 220 nm silicon-on-insulator are capable of achieving 3 dB bandwidths exceeding 100 nm while maintaining central coupling efficiencies ranging from -3.0 dB to -5.4 dB, depending on partial-etch fraction. We fabricate a subset of these structures and experimentally demonstrate gratings with 3 dB bandwidths exceeding 120 nm. This inverse design approach provides a flexible design paradigm, allowing for the creation of broadband grating couplers without requiring constraints on grating geometry.

Comparison between broadband and monochromatic photopic negative response in full-field electroretinogram in controls and subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma
摘要： Purpose A prospective, cross-sectional, case–control study was conducted to investigate the role of broadband and monochromatic photopic negative response (PhNR) of the full-field flash electroretinogram (ERG) in the evaluation of ganglion cell damage in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) subjects. Methods Subjects with POAG and age-matched normal subjects were recruited from the outpatient department of a tertiary eye care center in South India. A total of 25 patients with POAG and 50 age-matched normal subjects were recruited. ERG was recorded using broadband (3.5 cd.s/m2 white stimulus on 10 cd/m2 white background) and monochromatic (3.5 cd.s/m2 red stimulus on 10 cd/m2 blue background and 1 cd.s/m2 blue stimulus on 10 cd/m2 yellow background) stimuli. Results The reduction in PhNR amplitude in POAG compared to normal individuals was higher in red-on-blue PhNR [26.37 μV; p < 0.001, confidence interval (CI) 19.34 to 33.4] as compared to broadband stimuli (16.41 μV; p < 0.001, CI 8.68 to 24.13), and blue on yellow (21.96 μV; p < 0.001, CI 10.12 to 33.8). Red-on-blue PhNR amplitudes correlated better with mean deviation (MD; r = -0.66, p < 0.05), pattern standard deviation (PSD; r = -0.4, p = 0.04), visual field index (VFI; r = -0.58, p < 0.05), and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (r = -0.67, p < 0.05) in comparison with broadband and monochromatic blue-on-yellow PhNR. Receiver operating characteristic curve revealed largest area under the curve (0.89) in red-on-blue PhNR compared to broadband (0.76) and blue on yellow (0.74). The sensitivity and specificity was also higher in red-on-blue PhNR (72% and 80%, respectively) as compared to the other stimuli (sensitivity and specificity of broadband 0.68 and 0.7, blue on yellow 0.64 and 0.7, respectively). Conclusion Correlation of PhNR with Humphrey visual field parameters and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness showed that red-on-blue PhNR can be a useful additional tool for clinical assessment of retinal ganglion cell dysfunction in glaucoma patients. Red-on-blue PhNR was more sensitive as compared to white-on-white and blue-on-yellow PhNR in identifying ganglion cell dysfunction and correlates well with other structural and functional tests for glaucoma such as MD, PSD, VFI, and RNFL thickness.

A 1 to 32 GHz broadband multi-octave receiver for monolithic integrated vector network analyzers in SiGe technology
摘要： A multi-octave receiver chain is presented for the use in a monolithic integrated vector network analyzer. The receiver exhibits a very wide frequency range of 1–32 GHz, where the gain meets the 3 dB-criterion. The differential receiver consists of an ultra-wideband low noise amplifier, an active mixer and an output buffer and exhibits a maximum conversion gain (CG) of 16.6 dB. The main design goal is a very flat CG over five octaves, which eases calibration of the monolithic integrated vector network analyzer. To realize variable gain functionality, without losing much input matching, an extended gain control circuit with additional feedback branch is shown. For the maximum gain level, a matching better than ?10 dB is achieved between 1–28 GHz, and up to 30.5 GHz the matching is better than ?8.4 dB. For both, the input matching and the gain of the LNA, the influence of the fabrication tolerances are investigated. A second gain control is implemented to improve isolation. The measured isolations between RF-to-LO and LO-to-RF are better than 30 dB and 60 dB, respectively. The LO-to-IF isolation is better than 35 dB. The noise figure of the broadband receiver is between 4.6 and 5.8 dB for 4–32 GHz and the output referred 1-dB-compression-point varies from 0.1 to 4.3 dBm from 2–32 GHz. The receiver draws a current of max. 66 mA at 3.3 V.

Broadband Emission in Hybrid Organic–Inorganic Halides of Group 12 Metals
摘要： We report syntheses, crystal and electronic structures, and characterization of three new hybrid organic?inorganic halides (R)ZnBr3(DMSO), (R)2CdBr4·DMSO, and (R)CdI3(DMSO) (where (R) = C6(CH3)5CH2N(CH3)3, and DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide). The compounds can be conveniently prepared as single crystals and bulk polycrystalline powders using a DMSO?methanol solvent system. On the basis of the single-crystal X-ray diffraction results carried out at room temperature and 100 K, all compounds have zero-dimensional (0D) crystal structures featuring alternating layers of bulky organic cations and molecular inorganic anions based on a tetrahedral coordination around group 12 metal cations. The presence of discrete molecular building blocks in the 0D structures results in localized charges and tunable room-temperature light emission, including white light for (R)ZnBr3(DMSO), bluish-white light for (R)2CdBr4·DMSO, and green for (R)CdI3(DMSO). The highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) value of 3.07% was measured for (R)ZnBr3(DMSO), which emits cold white light based on the calculated correlated color temperature (CCT) of 11,044 K. All compounds exhibit fast photoluminescence lifetimes on the timescale of tens of nanoseconds, consistent with the fast luminescence decay observed in π-conjugated organic molecules. Temperature dependence photoluminescence study showed the appearance of additional peaks around 550 nm, resulting from the organic salt emission. Density functional theory calculations show that the incorporation of both the low-gap aromatic molecule R and the relatively electropositive Zn and Cd metals can lead to exciton localization at the aromatic molecular cations, which act as luminescence centers.

Facile strategy for controllable synthesis of hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres with enhanced photocatalytic properties
摘要： Tailored design of photocatalysts with complicated hollow structures is of great importance for promoting environmental remediation. In this paper, monodispersed hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres have been prepared via a facile and economical hydrothermal method with the assistance of surfactant (polyethylene-polypropylene glycol (F68)). The unusual design displays three important features: large specific surface area, strong light absorption, and rich catalytic active sites. The specific surface area of the hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres is 21.75 m2g-1, which is higher than that of MoS2 particles (4.05 m2g-1) and commercial MoS2 (2.84 m2g-1). Meanwhile, the hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres possess strong light absorption around a broadband wavelength from 200 nm to 800 nm. Furthermore, the ordered MoS2 nanosheets which assemble to the outer surface of the hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres display rich catalytic active sites, which are beneficial in promoting the fast transport of charge carriers during the process of photocatalytic reaction. As a result, the photodegradation activity test demonstrates that the hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity and recycling stability. The reaction rate constant of the hierarchical hollow MoS2 microspheres for the photodegradation of RhB is 25.32 and 18.18 times faster than that of MoS2 particles and commercial MoS2, respectively.

Incoherent Gain-Assisted Ring Enhanced Gas Absorption Spectroscopy
摘要： A novel incoherent gain-assisted ring enhanced spectroscopy technique is presented overcoming the need for precise optical alignment and high reflectivity dielectric mirrors. A gain medium pumped below the lasing threshold is used to improve the ring finesse and, thus, the interaction length. Two configurations are considered and compared. The first configuration is dual coupler ring with the source outside the ring and the gain medium inside the ring, while the second configuration is single coupler resonator with the gain medium acting as the source. The configurations are studied analytically and experimentally for different system parameters. The experimental results are obtained for a coupling ratio of 90/10. The broadband source is the amplified spontaneous emission of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), while another SOA is used as the gain medium. Acetylene (C2H2) gas absorption is measured around 1540 nm wavelength. The output spectrum of the ring is measured using a 70 pm resolution. The interaction length is found to be enhanced by a factor of 9.35 and 44 in case of the dual coupler and single coupler resonator, respectively, compared to the direct absorption of the gas cell.
