In this paper, we combine the design of band-pass frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) with polarization converters to realize a broadband frequency-selective polarization converter (FSPC) with lowbackward scattering, which consists of the…
We introduce a modular approach for efficiently interfacing photonic integrated circuits with deep-sub-wavelength hybrid plasmonic functionality. We demonstrate that an off-the-shelf silicon-on-insulator waveguide can be post-processed into…
High-Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS) offers higher ionized flux fractions at the cost of lower deposition rates compared to conventional DCMS. A fine optimization of the deposition conditions is crucial for specific…
The dark count rate of a multipixel photon counter (MPPC) was reduced to less than 0.2 cps by cooling the counter to 78.5 K. Characteristics of the MPPC other than the dark count rate were also detemined at 78.5 K and 295 K. The…
We report on the generation of broadband, high-energy femtosecond pulses centered at 1.28 um by stimulated Raman scattering in pressurized hydrogen cell. Stimulated Raman scattering is performed by two chirped and delayed pulses originating…
We present a detailed investigation of the afterpulse effect in silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs), using a dedicated structure with single-cell readout. This enables direct measurement of intrinsic device properties and observation of…
We theoretically and experimentally investigate the design of a high-repetition rate source delivering well-separated picosecond pulses thanks to the nonlinear compression of a dual-frequency beat signal within a cavity-less normally…
Multi-soliton pulses are potential candidates for fiber optical transmission where the information is modulated and recovered in the so-called nonlinear Fourier domain. While this is an elegant technique to account for the channel…
Octave-spanning, 12.5 fs, (1.9 cycle) pulses with 115 {\mu}J energy in the short-wavelength mid-infrared spectral range (1-2.5 {\mu}m) have been generated via phase-mismatched cascaded nonlinear frequency conversion using organic DAST…
A statistical model of the nonlinear response of silicon photomultipliers is presented. It includes losses of both the photodetection efficiency and the gain during pixel recovery periods as well as the effect of correlated and uncorrelated…
The use of laser pulse sequences to drive the cascaded difference frequency generation of high energy, high peak-power and multi-cycle terahertz pulses in cryogenically cooled periodically poled lithium niobate is proposed. Detailed…
High-energy, narrow-linewidth nanosecond pulses are highly demanding for many applications that require high temporal and spatial coherence. However, the amplification of narrow-linewidth pulses is primarily limited by stimulated Brillouin…

The nonlinear characteristics of hydrogenated amorphous silicon nanowires are experimentally demonstrated. A high nonlinear refractive index, n2=1.19 x 10-17 m2/W, combined with a low two-photon absorption, 0.14 x 10-11 m/W, resulted in a…
We present a laser source delivering waveform-controlled 1.5-cycle pulses that can be focused to relativistic intensity at 1 kHz repetition rate. These pulses are generated by nonlinear compression of high-temporal-contrast sub-25\,fs…
The output pulses of a commercial high-power femtosecond fiber laser or amplifier are typically around 300-500 fs with a wavelength around 1030 nm and 10s of $\mu$J pulse energy. Here we present a numerical study of cascaded quadratic…
Short (40-200 microseconds) single focused CO2 laser pulses of energy of about 100 microJ were used to fabricate high quality concave micromirror templates on silica and fluoride glass. The ablated features have diameters of 20-100 microns…
Mamyshev oscillators are an emerging class of ultrafast fiber lasers that support exceptionally broadband spectra and few-femtosecond pulse durations, making them well-suited for nonlinear frequency conversion. Despite this potential, THz…
