The extended L-band 4-core Er/Yb co-doped fiber and amplifier (MC-EYDFA) is first proposed and demonstrated, to the best of our knowledge, for space division multiplexing combined with wavelength division multiplexing application. The fiber core co-doped with Er/Yb/P is adopted for bandwidth expansion, and the long wavelength extends to 1625 nm. Numerical simulations further show that efficient amplification and higher saturation power are achieved with the 1018 nm cladding pumping. Based on the integrated 4-core fiber amplifier, an average gain of ∼22 dB covering 1575-1625 nm is experimentally obtained with a 4 W pump power and a 3 dBm total signal power, and the max core-dependent gain (CDG) variation is measured to be 1.7 dB.

Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a well-recognized technique for amplifying and quantifying nuclear acid, and its real-time monitoring capability, ultrahigh sensitivity, and accuracy make it a "golden-standard" tool in both molecular biology research and clinical diagnostics. However, current qPCR tests rely on bulky instrumentation and skilled laboratorians in centralized laboratories, which spatially and temporally separate the sample collection and test, leading to longer sample turnaround times (TATs) and limited working conditions. Herein, we propose an integrated optical fiber real-time polymerase chain reaction (iF-PCR) system that successfully allows convenient sample collection, rapid thermocycling, closed-loop thermal annealing, and real-time fluorescence detection in a tiny capillary reactor.

By compressing the pump pulses from 170 fs down to 43 fs using an argon-filled hollow-core fiber and chirped mirrors, the terahertz conversion efficiency is increased by 2.4 times, leading to the generation of multi-microjoule terahertz pulses with a frequency spectrum almost twice as wide, extending up to 19 THz.

In this paper, we experimentally tailor the CW-pumped supercontinuum (SC) generation in a cascaded Raman random fiber laser (CRRFL) based on a 1 µm pump with tunable temporal dynamics. The pump is based on a spectrally filtered ytterbium-doped random fiber laser (YRFL) seed laser, which can be amplified to a 10 W level with the tunable temporal noise.
