Multisection semiconductor lasers for optical microwave generation have been fabricated that consist of a loss-coupled distributed feedback (LC-DFB), a phase control, and an amplifier section. High-frequency self-pulsations are generated according to the concept of a single-mode laser with short optical feedback. The effect of the optical feedback via the phase control and the amplifier section on the self-pulsation is apparently shown as a result of the superior single-mode characteristic of the LC-DFB section. Continuous frequency tuning is achieved in the range of 17-35 GHz.

Fiber-optic vibration sensors have been studied widely owing to their anti-electromagnetic interference, corrosion resistance, and ease of integration and distribution. Previous reports primarily focused on the frequency detection of vibration signals. However, the amplitude sensitivity, noise-equivalent amplitude (NEA), and stability determine the sensing precision and accuracy of the device.

Due to the high electro-optical response, the directly modulated microcavity laser provides a 10-GHz-spaced seeding OFC with 9 comb teeth in a 10 dB flatness window. Besides, an optical feedback fiber loop with two sub-loops is introduced to reduce the linewidth of the microlaser and suppress the undesired longitudinal modes.

In this work, we propose and demonstrate a high-capacity spatial-division multiplexing (SDM) system with SHD technology by employing single-mode multi-core fibers (SM-MCFs), where the fan-in/fan-out (FIFO) 3D photonic devices are designed and fabricated based on the femtosecond laser direct writing technique, enabling high-efficiency coupling between single-mode fibers (SMFs) and SM-MCFs. The FIFO 3D photonic devices, serving as the SDM (de)multiplexer, facilitate superior performance of low insertion loss and low inter-channel crosstalk.

Background: Laparoscopic surgery training is a demanding process requiring technical and nontechnical skills. Surgical training has evolved from traditional approaches to the use of immersive digital technologies such as virtual, augmented, and mixed reality. These technologies are now integral to laparoscopic surgery training.
