Optical fiber shape sensing technology provides an excellent solution for the tracking and guiding of minimally invasive surgical instruments. However, when some large-deformed instrument operation…
This work is focused on the modeling of signal propagations in myelinated axons to characterize the functions of the myelin sheath in the neural structure. Based on reasonable assumptions on the me…
Highly coherent lasers with spectral hyperpurity can further advance the fields of science and engineering. Especially, a light source with controllable frequency domain parameters can be adapted t…
The intrinsic spectrum that results from the coupling of spontaneous emission in a laser cavity can determine the energy concentration and coherence of lasers, which is crucial for optical high-pre…
An ultra-widely tunable acousto-optic add-drop filter is proposed and demonstrated based on the acoustically-induced polarization conversion of cladding-etched single-mode fiber, which covers wavel…

We consider the problem of minimizing a high-dimensional objective function, which may include a regularization term, using only (possibly noisy) evaluations of the function. Such optimization is a…
Researches on high coherence light sources always pursue fast tuning speed, linear tunability and persistence of narrow linewidths at different tuning channels. Fortunately, acousto-optical interac…
Advanced applications in optical frequency metrology demand improved tunable lasers with high coherence. Herein, a tunable single-frequency fiber laser based on the longitude-purification induced b…
