Determining how to add more signal channels without enlarging the cable volume is continually an issue in managing submarine cables. To improve the cost per bit and the power efficiency, space divi…
A high-spatial-resolution, i.e., 2.0 mm, strain sensor based on a Rayleigh-scattering-enhanced SMF, i.e., exposed SMF (E-SMF) with direct UV laser, was experimentally demonstrated. The enhancement …
In this article, the first experimental demonstration of a non-iterative electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) solution implemented at the transmitter using a finite impulse response (FIR) filte…
We experimentally demonstrate a Brillouin fiber laser (BFL) with a low threshold and narrow linewidth at 2 μ m employing a chalcogenide As 2 S 3 fiber as the Brillouin gain fiber. The As 2 S 3 fib…
Optimal LED size is an important topic for high-speed UV-C wireless communication but still lacks sufficient investigation. In this work, we study the size effect of UV-C LEDs based on the entire c…
Real-time and high-speed interrogation of optical fiber sensors normally requires sophisticated detection systems. Here a novel microwave photonic approach for interrogation of high-speed and high-…
In this paper, we present an experimental study of the metrological stabilization of a solid-state frequency comb for embedded metrology applications. The comb is a passively mode-locked laser diod…
We propose and demonstrate a novel method to achieve pulsed operation of thulium-doped fiber lasers at 1.7 μm. In our design, the thulium-doped fiber laser cavity was embedded within the cavity of…
Photonics die or integrated photonics modules co-packaged with compute engines have the potential to deliver significant improvements in power, bandwidth and reach needed to meet the computing and …
Presently, it is still challenging to obtain satisfied identification results for long-distance safety monitoring with fiber distributed acoustic sensor (DAS) in practical complicated burying envir…
