The paper presents an augmented reality display based on the free-space combiner, consisting of two holographic mirrors: flat and spherical. A feature of such a system is a high-reflection coefficient of mirrors up to 90% for one wavelength and a high transmittance to the lumen up to 67% throughout the rest of the visible spectrum, unlike similar solutions implementing principles of polarization or dichroic beam splitting. The recording scheme and calculation of a separate flat holographic mirror and spherical holographic mirror are described. The proposed augmented reality display can provide multifocality, i.e., reproduction of virtual images at several distances, which demonstrates a certain perspective of this implementation in terms of compensation for the vergence accommodation conflict.

Innovative Integration of Dual Quantum Cascade Lasers on Silicon Photonics Platform.

Micromachines (Basel)

August 2024

Photonics Research Group, Department of Information Technology, Ghent University-imec, 9052 Ghent, Belgium.

For the first time, we demonstrate the hybrid integration of dual distributed feedback (DFB) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) on a silicon photonics platform using an innovative 3D self-aligned flip-chip assembly process. The QCL waveguide geometry was predesigned with alignment fiducials, enabling a sub-micron accuracy during assembly. Laser oscillation was observed at the designed wavelength of 7.

Atmospheric turbulence severely degrades the optical wavefront of a propagating beam, which greatly reduces the coupling efficiency of free-space optical (FSO) receivers. Among the various methods to mitigate the effects, the use of a multi-channel receiver is more convenient and economical. After passing through the multi-channel receiver, multiple single-mode fibers (SMFs) are output and need to be combined.

Atmospheric turbulence can generate scintillation or beam wandering phenomena that impairs free space optical (FSO) communication. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a proof-of-concept FSO communication receiver based on a spatial demultiplexer and a photonic integrated circuit coherent combiner. The receiver collects the light from several Hermite Gauss spatial modes and coherently combine on chip the energy from the different modes into a single output.

Since the conventional coherent transceiver is costly to be deployed in short-reach networks due to its complicated receiver structure, it is desired to simplify the structure itself. In this paper, we propose a simple polarization-diversity coherent receiver structure by exploiting the concept of the Stokes analyzer. Compared to the conventional architecture, the number of the photodiodes (PDs) is reduced from eight to six without relying on complicated analog circuits.
