This paper reports on new experimental results on the temperature-dependent phase-matching properties of LiGaS for second-harmonic generation and sum-frequency generation in the 0.820-10.5910 μm spectral range. In addition, we present a thermo-optic dispersion formula that provides a good reproduction of the present experimental results when combined with the Sellmeier equations presented in our previous paper, Kato et al. [Opt. Lett.42, 4363 (2017)OPLEDP0146-959210.1364/OL.42.004363].

In this paper, a novel thermo-optic metagrating based on phase-change material (vanadium dioxide, VO) is proposed for broadband, polarization-independent, and non-dispersive transmission modulation at the telecommunication wavelengths. In the pursuit of concurrent attainment of multiple performance objectives, nanostructured VO metagratings are optimized numerically using inverse design algorithms. Notably, adjoint optimization pertaining to both phases of VO facilitates better modulation capabilities within free-form shaped VO metagratings compared to shape-optimized methods with predetermined designs.

In this study, we investigate the impact of an adjustable phase on soliton behavior within a one-dimensional (1D) coupled cavity array. Each cavity is doped with two-level qubits, and the system can be effectively described by a Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model (JC-Hubbard model).

In this paper we derived an expression that allows the determination of the thermo-optic coefficient of weakly-guiding germanium-doped silica fibers, based on the thermal behavior of optical fiber devices, such as, fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). The calculations rely on the full knowledge of the fiber parameters and on the temperature sensitivity of FBGs. In order to validate the results, we estimated the thermo-optic coefficient of bulk GeO glass at 293 K and 1.

The suggested AOML OPA incorporates multiline OPA units, which were seamlessly integrated with a 45° angular offset through a thermo-optic switch based on a multimode interference coupler, resulting in a wide FOV that combines three consecutive scanning ranges. Simultaneously, a periodic diffraction envelope rendered by the multiline OPA units contributes to reduced peak intensity fluctuation of the main lobe across the large FOV.

Phonon-based frequency combs that can be generated in the optical and microwave frequency domains have attracted much attention due to the small repetition rates and the simple setup. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a new type of phonon-based frequency comb in a silicon optomechanical crystal cavity including both a breathing mechanical mode (∼GHz) and flexural mechanical modes (tens of MHz). We observe strong mode competition between two approximate flexural mechanical modes, i.
