A dispersion interferometer is a reliable density measurement system and is being designed as a complementary density diagnostic on ITER. The dispersion interferometer is inherently insensitive to mechanical vibrations, and a combined polarimeter with the same line of sight can correct fringe jump errors. A proof of the principle of the CO laser dispersion interferometer combined with the PEM polarimeter was recently conducted, where the phase shift and the polarization angle were successfully measured simultaneously. Standard deviations of the line-average density and the polarization angle measurements over 1 s are 9 × 10 m and 0.19°, respectively, with a time constant of 100 μs. Drifts of the zero point, which determine the resolution in steady-state operation, correspond to 0.25% and 1% of the phase shift and the Faraday rotation angle expected on ITER.

- Researchers have identified a new type of bright pulse in Kerr-Gires-Tournois interferometers that exists in a normal dispersion regime.
- Unlike traditional domain wall locking scenarios, these pulses exhibit unique shapes and increased peak intensities beyond typical limits.
- They remain stable across a wide range of injection fields, indicating promising applications for generating optical frequency combs (OFC).

The effective control of atomic coherence with cold atoms has made atom interferometry an essential tool for quantum sensors and precision measurements. The performance of these interferometers is closely related to the operation of large wave packet separations. We present here a novel approach for atomic beam splitters based on the stroboscopic stabilization of quantum states in an accelerated optical lattice.

By controlling intracavity net dispersion using passive fibers, we observed soliton, stretched-pulse, and dissipative-soliton mode-locked operations. In particular, the broadest output spectrum with a bandwidth at 30 dB below the peak of 320 nm and a pulse duration of 61 fs were obtained at a net dispersion of -0.

We show that the mode strengths of a guided field in an arbitrary asymmetric channel waveguide can be uniquely determined from self-referencing interferometric measurements at the exit plane of the waveguide. This requires knowledge of both the amplitude and phase of the complex electric field distribution. Although the amplitude can be obtained from the measured intensity profile easily, the phase retrieval is usually non-trivial.

Article Synopsis
- Edge states in topological systems are important due to their stability and unique properties, leading to the development of a superconducting-proximitized edge interferometer on the topological insulator TaPdTe.
- This interferometer realizes the Josephson diode effect (JDE), achieving high efficiency (up to 73%) and ultra-low power consumption while operating under small magnetic fields.
- Key features of the JDE include the presence of a second-order harmonic in the current-phase relation and antisymmetric transport, indicating the device's effectiveness for future advancements in superconducting quantum technologies.
