The transient wavelength performance of high-power InP laser diode stacks with internal Bragg gratings is studied experimentally. Because of the wavelength selective nature of the internal grating, which is decoupled from the actual gain profile dynamics of the laser diode, the wavelength drift with respect to temperature and current is greatly reduced and steady-state conditions are reached after a short settling time of less than 50 ms.

Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference is the foundation of quantum optics to test the degree of indistinguishability of two incoming photons, playing a key role in quantum communication, sensing, and photonic quantum computing. Realizing high-visibility HOM interference with massively parallel optical channels is challenging due to the lack of available natural optical references for aligning independent arrayed laser pairs. Here, we demonstrate 50 parallel comb-teeth pairs of continuous-wave weak coherent photons HOM interference using two independently frequency post-aligned soliton microcombs (SMCs), achieving an average fringe visibility over 46%.

The APSYS software was utilized to construct a novel GaN quantum well ISBT infrared detector in this study. By endeavoring to modify the quantum well structure, our objective was to precisely adjust the energy level of the first excited state (E1) to align with the apex of the triangular barrier.

The performance of an optoelectronic device is largely dependent on the light harvesting properties of the active material as well as the dynamic behaviour of the photoexcited charge carriers upon absorption of light. Recently, atomically thin two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDCs) have garnered attention as highly prospective materials for advanced ultrathin solar cells and other optoelectronic applications, owing to their strong interaction with electromagnetic radiation, substantial optical conductivity, and impressive charge carrier mobility. WSe is one such extremely promising solar energy material.

Plant factories with artificial lighting (PFALs) are a notable choice for urban agriculture due to the system's benefits, where light can be manipulated to enhance the product's yield and quality. Our objective was to test the effect of light spectra with different red-blue combinations and white light on the growth, physiology, and overall quality of three baby-leaf vegetables (green lettuce, kale, and pak choi) grown in a restaurant's PFAL. Leaf mass per area was lower under the most blue-containing treatments in all species.
