We demonstrated a continuous-wave (cw) and pulsed optical vortex with topological charges driven by heat generated during the lasing process without introducing the astigmatism effect and reducing lasing efficiency. During the lasing process, the topological charges were changeable by the thermal-induced lens and selected by the mode-matching between the pump and oscillating beams. With a graphene sample as the saturable absorber, a pulsed optical vortex was achieved at a wavelength of 1.36 μm, which identified that graphene could be used as a pulse modulator for the generation of a pulsed optical vortex. Thermally driven cw and pulsed optical vortexes should have various promising applications based on the compact structure, changeable topological charges, and specific wavelength.

Integrated optomechanical systems are a leading platform for manipulating, sensing, and distributing quantum information, but are limited by residual optical heating. Here, we demonstrate a two-dimensional optomechanical crystal (OMC) geometry with increased thermal anchoring and a mechanical mode at 7.4 GHz, well aligned with the operation range of cryogenic microwave hardware and piezoelectric transducers.

Background: Optic neuritis, commonly associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), can also occur in the context of hypocalcemia as a rare intriguing clinical scenario. Most recent articles have reported the association of papilledema and hypoparathyroidism, However, very rarely, case reports revealed hypocalcemia-induced optic neuritis as well as our case.
Case Presentation: We report a 43-year-old woman with a history of hypocalcemia presenting with optic neuritis, characterized by sudden vision loss, painful eye movements, and pulsatile headache.

In this study, we aim to explore the soliton phenomena in fully nonlinear complex perturbed Gerdjikov-Ivanov equation (PGIE). This model concerns with optical pulse transmission pursuant to perturbation impacts encompassing significant uses in optical fibers, especially, photonic crystal fibers. We employ the Riccati modified extended simple equation method, which has never been employed for this model previously, to acquire novel and distinct optical soliton solutions.

Cold atoms could be uniformly transported through guiding optical potential and interacted coherently by slender light pulses. We analyze the coherence of cold atoms in BDGOP using the Ramsey interference.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA femtosecond pulse downconverts broadband electromagnetic signals to the hundreds of MHz range, enabling fast measurement and enhancing electromagnetic monitoring efficiency. However, due to the high peak power of optical pulses, the received power of the detector is severely limited, and thus the sensitivity of the system is reduced. To address this problematic issue, this paper presents a multichannel parallel high-saturation optical power-balanced photodetection technique that uses parallel reception to enhance the detector's received power, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and system sensitivity.
