This paper demonstrates cooling of the center-of-mass motion of 10 $\mu$m-diameter optically levitated silica spheres to an effective temperature of $50\pm22 \mu$K, achieved by minimizing the technical pointing noise of the trapping laser.…
A model of an Er$^{3+}$/Yb$^{3+}$ co-doped glass gain medium is considered. The system of rate equations taking into account a minimum set of processes required to describe experimental data is built. As a result, a moderate number of…
We demonstrate efficient pulse-energy extraction from a partly-quenched erbium-doped aluminosilicate fiber amplifier. This has a high erbium-concentration, which allows for short devices with reduced nonlinear distortions, but which also…
We report on the design and characterization of a high-power amplifier with an output power of 36.5 dBm for a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1000 MHz with a total gain of 40 dB. The amplifier is optimized for driving acousto-optic and…
A tapered semiconductor amplifier is injection seeded by a femtosecond optical frequency comb at 780 nm from a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. Energy gains over 17 dB (12 dB) are obtained for 1 mW (20 mW) of average input power when the…
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…
A lot of research is focused on all-optical signal processing, aiming to obtain effective alternatives to existing data transmission platforms. Amplification of light in fiber optics, such as in Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, is especially…
This paper reports the achievement of 120W single-frequency narrow linewidth 1018nm laser based on wide-tunable DBR fiber seed source. The DBR structure seed source uses 8mm long doped optical fibers with a line width of 3.25k. The…
Photoluminescence is observed at room temperature from phonon-assisted band-to-band emission in Si (1.067 eV peak) using unpatterned bulk p-type silicon wafer samples that were spin-coated with Er-doped (6 at. %) silica-gel films (0.13…
A silicon light source at communication wavelength is the bottleneck for developing monolithically integrated silicon photonics. Doping silicon with erbium ions was believed to be one of the most promising approaches but suffers from the…
We present an analytical solution for a radiation balanced fiber laser, in which no net heat is generated during lasing operation due to cooling by anti-Stokes fluorescence. The results are in excellent agreement with the numerical…

Thermal noise is the predominant instability in the provision of ultrastable laser frequency, referencing to an optical cavity. Reducing the thermal-noise limit of a cavity means either making it larger to spread thermal fluctuations,…
