Spatial effects of interference and interaction of light modes in the subwavelength part of the near-field optical microscopy probe have been theoretically studied. It was found that the mode interference can lead to higher spatial…

Fiber-based endoscopes utilizing multi-core fiber (MCF) bundles offer the capability to image deep within the human body, making them well-suited for imaging applications in minimally invasive surgery or diagnosis. However, the optical…

We address the long-standing unresolved problem concerning the V-parameter in a photonic crystal fiber (PCF). Formulate the parameter appropriate for a core-defect in a periodic structure we argue that the multi-mode cut-off occurs at a…

Multi-photon microscopy is a powerful tool in biomolecular research. Less complex and more cost effective excitation light sources will make this technique accessible to a broader community. Especially semiconductor diode seeded fiber…

A large mode area single-mode optical fibre based on leaky mode filtering was prepared by MCVD. The cladding structure discriminates the fundamental mode from the higher order ones. A preliminary version has 25-$\mu$m core diameter and 0.11…

Strong intensity attenuation limits the use of conventional diffraction-free optical elements. We show a possible solution to the exponential intensity attenuation limiting the use of Fresnel-type diffraction-free nanometer-scale optics by…

Optical nanofibres are used to confine light to subwavelength regions and are very promising tools for the development of optical fibre-based quantum networks using cold, neutral atoms. To date, experimental studies on atoms near nanofibres…

The diffractive nature of light has limited optics and photonics to operate at scales much larger than the wavelength of light. The major challenge in scaling-down integrated photonics is how to mold the light flow below diffraction-limit…

Focal ratio degradation (FRD), the increase of light's focal ratio between the input into an optical fiber and the output, is important to characterize for astronomical spectrographs due to its effects on throughput and the point spread…

Filled arrays of bolometers are currently being employed for use in astronomy from the far-infrared through millimeter parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Because of the large range of wavelengths for which such detectors are applicable,…

Over the past two decades there have been tremendous advances in high-power fiber lasers, which have provided a powerful tool for science, engineering and defense. A major roadblock for further power scaling of single-frequency fiber laser…

We show theoretically that, in the limit of weak dispersion, one-dimensional (1D) binary centrosymmetric photonic crystals can support topological edge modes in all photonic band gaps. By analyzing their bulk band topology, these "harmonic"…
