A coupled-cavity analysis of the resonant loop mirror with a signal flow graph technique is presented. Use of this technique has resulted in simple closed-form expressions for reflectance, transmittance, critical coupling, bandwidth, finesse, gain threshold, and mode splitting. Application of this device to enhance the single longitudinal mode operation of a fiber laser is also proposed. Detailed simulation results show a dramatic reduction in bandwidth and a threefold enhancement of the free spectral range by use of the vernier effect. The formulas and results obtained would also be useful in laser sensors and filters.

In recent years, there has been a significant increase in research into silicon-based on-chip sensing. In this paper, a coupled cavity waveguide (CCW) based on a slab photonic crystal structure was designed for use as a label-free biosensor. The photonic crystal consisted of holes arranged in a triangular lattice.

Recent experiments have revealed the profound effect of strong light-matter interactions in optical cavities on the electronic ground state of molecular systems. This phenomenon, known as vibrational strong coupling, can modify reaction rates and induce the formation of molecular vibrational polaritons, hybrid states involving both photon modes, and vibrational modes of molecules. We present an ab initio methodology based on the cavity Born-Oppenheimer Hartree-Fock ansatz, which is specifically powerful for ensembles of molecules, to calculate vibro-polaritonic IR spectra.

The frequency response of this class of lasers is obtained using small signal analysis under direct modulation. Our model predicts a modulation bandwidth enhancement as a broken symmetric laser, operating in the parity-time (PT) symmetry and non-PT symmetry domains.

The designs maximize the RF-optical conversion efficiency through simultaneous resonant enhancement of the RF drive signal, a continuous-wave (CW) optical pump, and the generated optical sideband. The optical pump and sideband are resonantly enhanced in respective supermodes of a two-coupled-cavity optical resonator system, while the RF signal can be enhanced in addition by an LC circuit formed by capacitances of the optical resonator active regions and (integrated) matching inductors.

Hot-electron photodetectors (HE PDs) are attracting increasing interests. However, the nanostructured HE PDs are fabricated via complicated and costly techniques, while the planar counterparts can hardly achieve outstanding photon absorption and hot-electron collection simultaneously. To address the incompatibility in optical and electrical domains, herein, we propose an HE PD based on planar dual cavities (i.
