In this paper, we propose and demonstrate an integrated polarization-insensitive single-mode filter (SMF) on a 340 nm silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform, by introducing two lateral coupling waveguides to couple high-order modes from central single-mode waveguide to lateral waveguides. The experimental results show that the excess loss is <0.29 dB and the extinction ratio is >20 dB with a broad bandwidth of 136 nm for the fabricated SMF with a compact footprint of <13 µm.

Direct Frequency Comb Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy Using Vernier Filtering.

J Phys Chem A

January 2025

Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125, United States.

We present direct frequency comb cavity ring-down spectroscopy with Vernier filtering as a straightforward approach to sensitive and multiplexed trace gas detection. The high finesse cavity acts both to extend the interaction length with the sample and as a spectral filter, alleviating the need for dispersive elements or an interferometer. In this demonstration, a free running interband cascade laser was used to generate a comb centered at 3.

An erbium-doped fiber ring laser based on a single-mode fiber-no-core fiber-single-mode fiber (SMF-NCF-SMF) structure was constructed and experimentally demonstrated for label-free DNA hybridization measurement. The SMF-NCF-SMF structure acts as a sensing element and a filter to select the laser wavelength. The proposed fiber ring laser sensor exhibits a high optical signal-to-noise ratio (SNR, >50 dB) and narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM, <0.

The control of temporal noise of the pump could add an additional degree of freedom to manipulate the spectrum of continuous-wave (CW) pumped SC generation. 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.

Enhanced Vernier Effect in Cascaded Fiber Loop Interferometers for Improving Temperature Sensitivity.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Optical Fiber Sensing and Communication, Institute of Photonics Technology, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China.

Article Synopsis
  • The study introduces a high-sensitivity temperature sensing system that leverages an enhanced Vernier effect using cascaded fiber loop interferometers.
  • The new system overcomes limitations in traditional methods by manipulating two free spectrum ranges (FSRs) to simultaneously increase and decrease their values with temperature changes.
  • Experimental results show that this enhanced system achieves a temperature sensitivity of 618.14 kHz/°C, which is significantly higher than both traditional methods and existing microwave interferometry systems, making it ideal for applications in fields like biometrics and smart technology.
