We present an empirical formula for linewidth in saturated absorption spectroscopy for two-level atoms with cycling transition lines, taking the coherence term in the Doppler-broadened limit into account. The full width at half-maximum is obtained as (1+(1+as))γ, where s is the on-resonance saturation parameter, γ is the transverse decay rate, and a and b are the parameters that depend on γ. We find that as γ increases, a and b approach 1 and 1/2, respectively. These are the typical values in the case without the coherence term.

In this paper, a single-frequency erbium-doped fiber laser based on self-injection feedback is reported, which uses a high-reflectivity broadband fiber Bragg grating, an ordinary commercial high-doped erbium fiber and a low-reflectivity broadband fiber Bragg grating to form the main resonant cavity, and a stable narrow linewidth single-frequency laser output is achieved by connecting a single-mode fiber and a low reflectivity narrowband fiber Bragg grating to form self-injection feedback. Then, a saturated double-pass erbium-doped fiber amplifier and a saturable absorber were added to the self-injection optical path, which well suppressed the relative intensity noise and phase noise and the relaxation oscillation intensity was well suppressed by about 18.08 dB, and the phase noise was 36.

Over the past decades, spin qubits in silicon carbide (SiC) have emerged as promising platforms for a wide range of quantum technologies. The fluorescence intensity holds significant importance in the performance of quantum photonics, quantum information process, and sensitivity of quantum sensing. In this work, a dual-layer Au/SiO dielectric cavity is employed to enhance the fluorescence intensity of a shallow silicon vacancy ensemble in 4H-SiC.

Single-frequency fiber lasers (SFFLs), 1083 nm, have been extensively applied in He optical pumping magnetometers (OPMs) for magnetic field detection. However, the sensitivity and accuracy of OPMs are constrained by the frequency stability of SFFLs. Focusing on this concern, the frequency-stabilized performance of the 1083 nm SFFLs is successfully improved by externally tailoring the laser linewidth to match the spectral width of the error signal in saturated absorption spectroscopy.

Double Resonance is a powerful spectroscopic method that unambiguously assigns the rigorous quantum numbers of one state of a transition. However, there is often ambiguity as to the branch (ΔJ) of that transition. Spectroscopists have resolved this ambiguity by using the dependence of the double resonance intensity on the relative polarization directions of pump and probe radiation.

Ternary GaAsSb nanowires (NW) are key materials for integrated high-speed photonic applications on silicon (Si), where homogeneous, high aspect-ratio dimensions and high-quality properties for controlled absorption, mode confinement and waveguiding are much desired. Here, we demonstrate a unique high-temperature (high-T >650 °C) molecular beam epitaxial (MBE) approach to realize self-catalyzed GaAsSb NWs site-selectively on Si with high aspect-ratio and non-tapered morphologies under antimony (Sb)-saturated conditions. While hitherto reported low-moderate temperature growth processes result in early growth termination and inhomogeneous morphologies, the non-tapered nature of NWs under high-T growth is independent of the supply rates of relevant growth species.
