We present a design improvement for a recently proposed type of Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor that uses a cylindrical (lenticular) lenslet array. The improved sensor design uses optical binning and requires significantly fewer detector…
Free-space optical communication (FSO) can achieve fast, secure and license-free communication without need for physical cables, making it a cost-effective, energy-efficient and flexible solution when the fiber connection is unavailable. To…
We report a theoretical study of clusters of evanescently-coupled 2D whispering-gallery (WG) mode optical micro-cavities (termed "photonic molecules") as chemosensing and biosensing platforms. Photonic molecules (PMs) supporting modes with…
Analytic expressions are derived for the Wiener filter (WF), also known as the linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) estimator, for an intensity-modulation/direct-detection (IM/DD) short-haul fiber-optic communication system. The link is…
Capturing images using multispectral camera arrays has gained importance in medical, agricultural and environmental processes. However, using all available spectral bands is infeasible and produces much data, while only a fraction is needed…
Deterministic sources of quantum light are becoming increasingly relevant in the development of quantum communication, particularly in deployed fiber networks. Therefore, efficient fiber-coupled sources at telecom wavelength are highly…
We present an ultrahigh-$Q$, solid-silica microrod resonator operated under ambient conditions that supports laser-fractional-frequency stabilization to the thermal-noise limit of $3 \times 10^{-13}$ and a linewidth of 62 Hz. We…
The research on sensing the sensitivity of the light field in the whispering gallery mode (WGM) to the micro-cavity environment has already appeared, which uses the frequency shift of the light field in the WGM or the sensitivity of the…
A widely tunable free spectral range (FSR) is essential for many optical microresonator applications, but achieving it remains a significant challenge. Recently, it has been experimentally demonstrated that side-coupling between two optical…
We propose and demonstrate a compact and simple vector bending sensor capable of distinguishing any direction and amplitude with high accuracy. The sensor consists of a short segment of asymmetric multicore fiber (MCF) fusion spliced to a…
A quantum-limited amplifier enables the amplification of weak signals while introducing minimal noise dictated by the principles of quantum mechanics. These amplifiers serve a broad spectrum of applications in quantum computing, including…
The dynamic nature of indoor environments poses unique challenges for next-generation millimeter-wave (mmwave) connectivity. These challenges arise from blockages due to mobile obstacles, mm-wave signal scattering caused by indoor surfaces,…
In the age of information explosion, the conventional optical communication protocols are rapidly reaching the limits of their capacity, as almost all available degrees of freedom (e.g., wavelength, polarization) for division multiplexing…
Optical wireless communication (OWC) covering an ultra-wide range of unlicensed spectrum has emerged as an extent efficient solution to mitigate conventional RF spectrum scarcity ranging from communication distances from nm to several…
In the past decade superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) have gradually become an indispensable part of any demanding quantum optics experiment. Until now, most SNSPDs are coupled to single-mode fibers. SNSPDs coupled to…
Super-resolution microscopy normally requiring complex and cumbersome optics is not applicable for in situ imaging through a narrow channel. Here, we demonstrate single hair-thin multimode fiber (MMF) endoscope (less than 250 ${\mu}m$) for…
A simple hard-thresholding operation is shown to be able to recover $L$ signals $\mathbf{x}_1,...,\mathbf{x}_L \in \mathbb{R}^n$ that share a common support of size $s$ from $m = \mathcal{O}(s)$ one-bit measurements per signal if $L \ge…
The continuously increasing IP data traffic demand, with geometrical growth rate exceeding 26%, requires a large transmission capacity increment from the fiber optical infrastructure. As the deploy of new fiber cables requires extensive…
Few-mode fiber is a significant component of free-space optical communication at the receiver to obtain achievable high coupling efficiency. A theoretical coupling model from the free-space optical communication link to a few-mode fiber is…
Optical satellites, with their diverse band layouts and ground sampling distances, supply indispensable evidence for tasks ranging from ecosystem surveillance to emergency response. However, significant discrepancies in band composition and…
