High-power dual-wavelength diode-pumped Yb:KGW laser using a single birefringent filter plate was demonstrated. Two oscillating wavelengths maintained the same polarization and stable dual-wavelength operation at 1014.6 and 1041.3 nm (7.57 THz of frequency offset) with 3.4 W of average output power and a diffraction-limited beam profile was obtained. Dual-wavelength laser operation at shorter- or longer-wavelength pairs with lower average output power could also be realized for other output-coupling transmissions.

Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) is a high-resolution and non-invasive imaging modality that provides optical absorption contrast. By employing dual- or multiple-wavelength excitation, PAM extends its capabilities to offer valuable spectroscopic information. To achieve efficient multispectral PAM imaging, an essential requirement is a light source characterized by a high repetition rate and switching rate, a ≈microjoule pulse energy, and a ≈nanosecond pulse duration.

Amorphous aerogels with the microscopic nanoscale three-dimensional meshes provide superb platforms for investigating unique physicochemical properties. In order to enhance the physical, thermal and mechanical performances, one efficient and common approach is integrating diverse functional materials. Herein, we report a simple strategy to fabricate the amorphous silicon doped YO aerogels with the post-gelation method under the N/EtOH supercritical atmosphere.

Article Synopsis
  • Gallium arsenide (GaAs) microwires, with an average diameter of 1.1 μm, have been successfully grown and show promise for nonlinear optical devices by allowing for bandgap engineering.
  • The microwires exhibit significant strain, measured between 1.61% to 2.03%, which reduces their bandgap compared to bulk GaAs, extending the operational wavelength range to 1.1 μm.
  • These GaAs microwires function as effective saturable absorbers in laser applications, demonstrating capabilities like Q-switching and mode-locking in Yb-bulk lasers, highlighting their potential for advanced optical technologies.

We propose a dual-wavelength scheme for a clipping-avoidance photonic analog-to-digital converter (PADC) operating at the sub-Nyquist sampling rate. The scheme utilizes two characteristics, the phase-wrapping feature of a PADC and the wavelength-sensitive feature of a phase modulator, equivalently performing a dual-modulus (DM) modulo operation to avoid clipping. Coupled with an unwrapping algorithm based on the Chinese remainder theorem (CRT), the proposed scheme enables signal reconstruction from the processed signals independent of the sampling rate.
