An all optical soliton diode (AOSD) is proposed based on a sandwich nonlinear Bragg-grating structure: a linearly chirped Bragg-grating linked to a uniform Bragg-grating and again to a chirped Bragg-grating. The nonreciprocity is achieved…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) exhibit high second harmonic (SH) generation in the visible due to their non-centrosymmetric crystal structure in odd-layered form and direct bandgap transition when thinned down to a monolayer. In…
Any frequency selective device with an ongoing drift will cause observed spectra to be variously and simultaneously scaled in proportion to their source distances. The reason is that detectors after the drifting selection will integrate…
