We report the generation of a broadband super- continuum with a CW Yb fiber laser and a PCF. The spectrum extends toward short wavelengths through efficient dispersive wave generation.

Using the four sidebands theory, we analyze a recent experimental demonstration of a broadband and flat two-pump fiber optical parametric amplifier and predict gain oscillations near the pump wavelength due to interference with modulation instability and Bragg scattering.

We demonstrate a novel technique to improve receiver sensitivity for ON-OFF keying format by adopting balanced detection with optical parametric amplifier (OPA) as pre-amplifier. Receiver sensitivity was improved by 1.9 dB compared to single-ended detection scheme.

We experimentally study supercontinuum generation in the nanosecond regime using a microstructured fiber with two zero dispersion wavelengths. Pumping at 1535 nm around the second zero-dispersion wavelength yields spectral broadening over 1350-1700 nm.

Due to their intrinsic nature, chalcogenide glasses present attractive nonlinearities from third and second order, with values reaching between 10 and 1000 times those of silica. We present a study of their properties and their shaping with the purpose to reach efficient devices in the near-mid infrared.

We observe spectral broadening of more than 350 nm upon propagation of ultrashort pulses in a 4.7-mm-long silicon-photonic-wire waveguide. The output spectral characteristics are shown to be consistent, in part, with higher-order soliton radiative effects.

This paper discusses the sensing capabilities of the highly birefringent index-guided photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) such as dispersion characteristics of phase and group modal birefringence, polarization characteristics, sensitivity to hydrostatic pressures, temperature, and strain. Different types of applications including interferometric and polarimetric sensors of different physical parameters as well as evanescent field sensors for monitoring specific chemical compounds in gases and liquids are reported.
