A broadly-tunable and narrow line Ti:Sapphire oscillator is presented. Tunability over 47 nm has been demonstrated while maintaining a linewidth shorter than 10 pm. Simplifications of typically tedious alignment procedures of VBG lasers are also discussed.

Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) fixed wireless access with optical transport is able to provide future ultra- broadband connectivity. Optical single sideband with carrier (OSSB+C) modulation has been shown to overcome dispersion for signal transport in such systems while the optical spectral usage of OSSB+C signals can be improved by interleaving the mm-wave modulated optical signals. The merging of fiber- radio applications with other access networks has also been demonstrated, leading to a transparent heterogeneous access architecture. In a multiple radio environment the performance of the fiber-radio system is severely limited by the nonlinearity of the optical frontend, therefore improving its linearity is essential in such applications. Recently we proposed and experimentally demonstrated an optical interface based on arrayed-waveguide-gratings (AWGs) that supports multiple dense-WDM (DWDM) optical fiber-radio channels with the capability to reduce intermodulation distortion (IMD), multiplex multiple wavelength-interleaved DWDM channels and support simultaneous baseband data transport in a heterogeneous environment . In this paper we extend this work to encompass a detailed characterization of the proposed interface and investigate the trade-offs using simulations.

We have proposed a replica-free spectral shearing interferometer with a dual frequency local oscillator that warrants fixed frequency shift and wide temporal coverage. We applied this technique to characterize few-cycle and several-ps optical pulses.
