Physical origin of higher-order soliton fission in nanophotonic semiconductor waveguides
摘要： Supercontinuum generation in Kerr media has become a staple of nonlinear optics. It has been celebrated for advancing the understanding of soliton propagation as well as its many applications in a broad range of fields. Coherent spectral broadening of laser light is now commonly performed in laboratories and used in commercial “white light” sources. The prospect of miniaturizing the technology is currently driving experiments in different integrated platforms such as semiconductor on insulator waveguides. Central to the spectral broadening is the concept of higher-order soliton fission. While widely accepted in silica fibers, the dynamics of soliton decay in semiconductor waveguides is yet poorly understood. In particular, the role of nonlinear loss and free carriers, absent in silica, remains an open question. Here, through experiments and simulations, we show that nonlinear loss is the dominant perturbation in wire waveguides, while free-carrier dispersion is dominant in photonic crystal waveguides.

L-band tunable and dual-wavelength mode locked fiber laser with NCF-GIMF based SA
摘要： A hybrid structure of no-core fiber and graded-index multimode fiber (NCF-GIMF) is demonstrated, which can be used as both the saturable absorber (SA) and the wavelength selective element. By employing such a device, an L-band wavelength tunable Er-doped mode-locked laser is realized and stable single solitons of ~1.7ps, with continuously tunable wavelengths from 1574 nm to 1601.1 nm, are generated. Moreover, dual-wavelength mode-locked laser operation at 1575.4 nm and 1603 nm is achieved, with pulse duration of 1.2 ps and 1.7 ps, respectively. The proposed device is simple and compact, and represents an effective approach for tunable and dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser operation.

Linear and Nonlinear Optical Properties of Few-Layer Exfoliated SnSe Nanosheets
摘要： Monochalcogenides of group IV elements have been considered as phosphorene analogs due to their similar crystal and electronic structure. Here, few-layer SnSe nanosheets are synthesized by a sonication-assisted liquid phase exfoliation process and their linear and nonlinear optical properties are examined. The as-exfoliated few-layer (FL) SnSe demonstrates layer thickness from 2 to 10 nm and lateral size of 150 nm with high crystallinity. Optical measurement confirms the layer-number dependent bandgap, which is also corroborated by first-principle calculation. In addition, the FL SnSe shows a transition from saturable absorption to reverse saturable absorption with the increase of pumping power, and the nonlinear absorption is characterized by an ultrafast response time of picosecond scale. The nonlinear optical response in FL SnSe could be explained by defect-involved recombination of photogenerated carriers as well as the Auger scattering process, which is further enhanced by structural two-dimensionality.

Study of the scattered light with the strip beam incident to the LiNbO3:Fe crystal
摘要： In this paper, we systematically studied the scattered light when the stripe beam of ordinary polarized light and extraordinary polarized light are incident to the LiNbO3:Fe crystal, respectively. First, we observed the variation of scattered light with the different angle between the stripe beam and the c-axis. And find the scattered light is growing with time along the c-axis direction of the crystal when the e-light is incident; while the scattered light is growing along a special direction which is not the c-axis direction or the stripe direction, when o-light is incident to the crystal. Then we analyzed the causes of these phenomena. In addition, we also studied the diffraction efficiency of o-light and e-light, and the raster image in the crystal.

Construction of a Noncentrosymmetric Luminescent Coordination Polymer from [BaL <sub/>3</sub> ] Unit (L = Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate Acid) and Li(I) Ion
摘要： This work presents the synthesis, crystal structure and properties of a novel noncentrosymmetric (NCS) coordination polymer (CP), namely, (Me2NH2)3[BaLi(2,6-PyDC)3(H2O)] (1) (2,6-PyDC = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate acid), which represents the first example of BaLi-CPs with 2,6-PyDC ligand. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis reveals that the compound features a two-dimensional (2D) layered structure. The simplified structure of each layer belongs to the hcb topology. The second harmonic generation (SHG) response of 1 is about 0.5 times that of KH2PO4 (KDP) marker. What is more, 1 emits bright blue light upon the excitation of 365 nm UV light with the quantum yield (QY, Φ) of 1.63%. The successful construction of this compound convinces the feasibility of constructing NCS CPs via the combination of [BaL3] unit and Li(I) ion.

Synthesis, crystal structures, second harmonic generation response and temperature phase transitions of two noncentrosymmetric Cu(II)-hybrid halides compounds: [(R)-C7H16N2][CuX4] (X?= Cl or Br)
摘要： (R)-(+)-3-aminoquinuclidine was used in the synthesis of [(R)-C7H16N2][CuCl4] (1) and [(R)-C7H16N2][CuBr4] (2), which both contain similar [CuX4]2- anions (X = Cl or Br). The structures of the two compounds were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The use of enantiomerically pure sources of (R)-C7H14N2 forces crystallographic noncentrosymmetry. These materials crystallize in the chiral space group P212121 (No. 19), which exhibits the enantiomorphic crystal class 222 (D2). In the molecular arrangement, the [CuX4]2- anions are linked to the organic cations through N-H...X and C-H...X hydrogen bonds to form cation-anion-cation molecular units, which are held together by means of offset face-to-face interactions giving a three-dimensional network. Thermal stability of the crystals was ascertained by TG measurement. Compounds (1) and (2) display several phases transition with higher transition temperature at T = 100°C. The Kurtz and Perry powder method using Nd:YAG laser shows that their second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies are about 0.81 and 0.82 times as large as that of KH2PO4 (KDP), respectively. Such a chiral hybrid metal halides skeleton could provide a new platform for future engineering in the areas including information storage, light modulators and optoelectronic functionalities.

Conditions for Parametric and Free-Carrier Oscillation in Silicon Ring Cavities
摘要： We model optical parametric oscillation in ring cavities with two-photon absorption, focusing on silicon at 1.55 μm. Oscillation is possible if free-carrier absorption can be mitigated; this can be achieved using carrier sweep-out in a reverse-biased p-i-n junction to reduce the carrier lifetime. By varying the pump power, detuning, and reverse-bias voltage, it is possible to generate frequency combs in cavities with both normal and anomalous dispersion at a wide range of wavelengths including 1.55 μm. Furthermore, a free-carrier self-pulsing instability leads to rich dynamics when the carrier lifetime is sufficiently long.

Limitations of graphene nanocoated optical tapers for high-power nonlinear applications
摘要： In this letter, we investigate the limitations of graphene as a saturable absorber for high-power nonlinear optical applications. The response of graphene nanocoated optical tapers against the average optical power injected is tested. We point out that the power handled by such components is limited and their nonlinear properties are strongly and permanently modified when exposed to high optical power. The origin of the degradation of the components is discussed.

Averaged nonlinear equations for multimode fibers valid in all regimes of random linear coupling
摘要： We develop averaged equations to model nonlinear propagation in multimode fibers that are valid in all regimes of random, linear, intermodal coupling. The propagation equations apply to the three existing regimes of linear coupling – the two previously studied all-mode (strong) and mode-group (weak) couplings and the new intermediate coupling regime. The equations are therefore general and can describe nonlinear propagation for all types of intermodal linear coupling that can exist between modes in a fiber supporting multiple spatial modes. Numerical simulations are performed to validate the new averaged propagation equations in the nonlinear regime.
