A new octave bandwidth high selectivity compact microstrip diplexer working in the band from 10 to 20 GHz is presented, intended to be a part of an electro-optical interferometer covering the whole frequency band. The circuit is based on the combination of hybrid couplers and bandpass filters both on the microstrip technology. The diplexer provides two output frequency bands which cover the 10-14 GHz (relative bandwidth of 33%) and the 16-20 GHz (relative bandwidth of 22%) ranges, respectively, with a stop band in between from 14 to 16 GHz. Measured results show a insertion loss level of 3.3 dB for both output bands and high selectivity performance, exhibiting a rejection level between output bands higher than 20 dB and return loss better than 10 dB in all ports.

Article Synopsis
- Coherent dispersive wave emission plays a key role in soliton dynamics across various nonlinear optics platforms, but generating efficient, ultra-broad bandwidth waves has been challenging due to resonance limitations.
- This study reveals a new approach where the dispersive wave emission process is strongly coupled with the driving pulse's dynamics, leading to high-efficiency coherent dispersive wave generation in the ultraviolet range.
- The process also produces a temporally-delayed ultrashort pulse that overlaps with the dispersive wave, resulting in significant spectrum broadening, which is valuable for applications like time-resolved spectroscopy and ultrafast electron microscopy.

Article Synopsis
- The development of 5G and 6G technologies requires new filters to handle wide frequency ranges over 6 GHz, leading to the creation of advanced bandpass filters.
- Researchers designed and fabricated an edge-coupled magnetostatic forward volume wave bandpass filter using a yttrium iron garnet (YIG) film on a gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) substrate, achieving significant design flexibility.
- The 4-pole filter exhibits linear frequency tuning from 4.5 GHz to 10.1 GHz, with impressive performance metrics including a low insertion loss of 6.94 dB and a rejection level of -35 dB.
Octave-spanning Kerr soliton frequency combs in dispersion- and dissipation-engineered lithium niobate microresonators.

Dissipative Kerr solitons from optical microresonators, commonly referred to as soliton microcombs, have been developed for a broad range of applications, including precision measurement, optical frequency synthesis, and ultra-stable microwave and millimeter wave generation, all on a chip. An important goal for microcombs is self-referencing, which requires octave-spanning bandwidths to detect and stabilize the comb carrier envelope offset frequency. Further, detection and locking of the comb spacings are often achieved using frequency division by electro-optic modulation.

Broadband adjustable sound absorbers are desired for controlling the acoustic conditions within enclosed spaces. Existing studies on acoustic absorbers, either passive or active, aim to maximize the sound absorption coefficients over an extended frequency band. By contrast, this paper introduces a tunable acoustic absorber, whose working frequency band and sound absorption characteristics can be defined by users for different applications.

The investigation of optical phenomena in the strong-field regime requires few-cycle laser pulses at field strengths exceeding gigavolts per meter (GV/m). Surprisingly, such conditions can be reached by tightly focusing pJ-level pulses with nearly octave spanning optical bandwidth onto plasmonic nanostructures, exploiting the field-enhancement effect. In this situation, the Gouy phase of the focused beam can deviate significantly from the monochromatic scenario.
