We propose a novel multiplexing system for sensing of dynamic strains excited in different multimode optical fibers. Multiplexing of the sensors is implemented by using vectorial wave mixing technique in the reflection geometry of hologram formation in a photorefractive crystal of CdTe:V. We analyzed different mechanisms of the crosstalk between measuring channels and showed that system performance is strongly affected by residual stresses of the photorefractive crystal.

Lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) has attracted widespread interest due to the excellent optical performance of lithium niobate crystals and the integration characteristics of thin film devices. With the improvement of the integration level of photonic integrated chips and the increase in light intensity inside the chip, the impact of optical damage in LNOI on-chip performance has attracted attention. One effective way to suppress the optical damage of lithium niobate is to dope it with Zr to form LiNbO (LiNbO:Zr), which is famous for its high resistance to optical damage from ultraviolet to visible spectrum.

By adjusting the polarization state of the reference beam, the system introduces a necessary additional phase shift of π/2 to achieve highly sensitive and linear demodulation of small phase-to-intensity vibration signals. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results confirm the system's practicality and safety, demonstrating its ability to accurately detect vibrations without the risks associated with high-voltage drift mode operation.

The Kerr nonlinearity allows for exact analytic soliton solutions in 1+1D. While nothing excludes that these solitons form in naturally occurring real-world 3D settings as solitary walls or stripes, their observation had previously been considered unfeasible because of the strong transverse instability intrinsic to the extended nonlinear perturbation. We report the observation of solitons that are fully compatible with the 1+1D Kerr paradigm limit hosted in a 2+1D system.

Topological transport is determined by global properties of physical media where it occurs and is characterized by quantized amounts of adiabatically transported quantities. Discovered for periodic potential, it was also explored in disordered and discrete quasiperiodic systems. Here, we report on experimental observation of pumping of a light beam in a genuinely continuous incommensurate photorefractive quasicrystal emulated by its periodic approximants.

In the nonlinear regime, the self-accelerating and secondary self-focusing features of the swallowtail beams are influenced, and a solitary wave is generated. The main lobe energy of the swallowtail beams is guided to a specific inclined trajectory, leading to a stable solitary wave, and we control the output position of the solitary wave by changing the launch angle.
