A fully programmable digital optical frequency combs (DOFC)-assisted covert communication scheme is proposed and demonstrated, addressing the challenges associated with the high complexity of analog cloning and synchronization. In this scheme, flexible DOFC are cost-effectively cloned through meticulous design, while fast synchronization is achieved via cyclic shifting, leveraging the excellent reconfigurability and recoverability of digital binary sequences. In experiments, the narrow spectrum is replicated by unique DOFC and subsequently concealed within additive white Gaussian noise. Transmitted mixed signals, with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), are efficiently recovered by cloned DOFC. For the 7% forward error correction limit, 201 comb lines achieve the maximal system processing gain of 21 dB from a low SNR (-15.49 dB @min.). The system tolerates high-order modulation formats and achieves $3times $ capacity enhancement. The proposed approach improves spectrum utilization and offers a simple, large-bandwidth, and high-security solution.

We demonstrate an all-silicon local area network wavelength division multiplexing (LAN-WDM) transmitter with capacities of 1.6 Tbps and beyond, utilizing 8 traveling wave Mach-Zehnder modulators (TW-MZMs) with 3 dB EO bandwidths of 60 GHz and a lattice-filer-based Gaussian-like-passband $8times 1$ multiplexer. By using the joint linear and nonlinear equalization algorithm based on cascaded artificial neural network and maximum likelihood sequence estimation (ANN-MLSE), we demonstrate single-channel 250 Gbps four level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM4) with the corresponding bit error ratios (BER) below the 20% soft-decision forward error correction (SD-FEC) threshold of 2E-2. The aggregate bit rates of all 8 channels reach 2 Tbps and 1.6 Tbps for the PAM4 transmissions over 1 km and 10 km single mode fibers, respectively. The energy efficiency and the bandwidth density are as high as 0.18/0.143 pJ/bit and 28.9/36.2 Gbps/mm${}^{mathbf {2}}$ for 1.6/2 Tbps transmission.We believe the proposed SiPh transmitter has great potential in long-reach applications due to the outstanding performance and low-cost manufacturing.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a 16-channel DFB laser array operating in the C-band, featuring high output power, narrow linewidth, low relatice intensity noise (RIN) and uniform wavelength spacing. The reconstruction equivalent chirp (REC) technique is used to introduce equivalent $pi $ phase shifts, simplify the grating process, and enhance the wavelength control accuracy. To maximize output efficiency, high-reflection (HR) and anti-reflection (AR) coatings are deposited on the rear and front facets, respectively. In addition, an asymmetric equivalent phase-shift configuration is incorporated into the cavity, which enhances the single-mode yield of the lasers and improves the precision of the wavelength spacing. A passive waveguide with light $n$ -type doping was introduced to suppress the overlap between the optical mode and both the $p$ -type cladding and the active region, thereby reducing carrier-induced absorption losses and significantly improving the slope efficiency of the laser. As a result, the proposed 16-channel DFB laser array operates with a channel spacing of 200 GHz and a maximum wavelength deviation of only 0.01 nm. Each laser delivers an output power exceeding 300 mW at a bias current of 1000 mA and $25~^{circ }$ C. The intrinsic Lorentzian linewidth is as narrow as 64 kHz, while the relative intensity noise (RIN) remains below −160 dB/Hz for bias currents above 500 mA. These results highlight the array’s strong potential for applications in optical I/O technology, free-space optical (FSO) communication, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems.

Mode-locked fluoride fiber oscillator provides a cost -effective and robust platform for generating mid-infrared (MIR) femtosecond pulses. Limited by the soliton area theorem, however, significantly scaling up the energy remains challenging. Although intra-cavity dispersion management has been proposed as a feasible way to overcome this limitation, the energies are clamped at <10> $sim 2.8~mu $ m based on the nonlinear polarization rotation mechanism, achieving a markedly scaled energy of >20 nJ. Specifically, an array of normal dispersion Ge rods is incorporated into a large-anomalous-dispersion cavity (i.e., −0.4 ps ${}^{mathbf {2}}$ ), primarily composed of a relatively long fluoride fiber, enabling precise dispersion management and thereby increasing the breathing ratio. Additionally, a backward pumping scheme is employed to reduce the round-trip-integrated nonlinear phase, thereby enhancing the maximum achievable energy before multi-pulsing or continuous-wave breakthrough occurs. As a result, the stretched pulses with a record energy of up to 20.9 nJ have been achieved, yielding a pulse width of 301 fs and a peak power of 65.2 kW under single-transverse-mode operation. To our knowledge, the energy represents, to date, the highest level of femtosecond fiber oscillators in the MIR. These results highlight the great potential of the mode-locked fluoride fiber oscillator for generating high-energy MIR femtosecond pulses in a compact configuration.

In this work, the reliability properties of Si photodetectors (PDs) and wide-bandgap semiconductor-based PDs, represented by SiC and GaN PDs, are compared upon high-dose ultra-violet (UV) irradiation. A high-power 275 nm UV light-emitting diode module with continuous-wave (CW) emission and a 266 nm nanosecond pulsed laser are selected as the aging light sources. It is found that after a cumulative 1 MJ/cm2 CW irradiation dose at 275 nm, the SiC and GaN PDs both exhibit a responsivity rise of ~3 %, while the Si PD exhibit a responsivity drop of more than 6 %. For the 266 nm pulsed laser irradiation with a peak power density of ~5 kW/cm ${}^{mathbf {2}}$ , when the cumulative dose reaches 0.1 MJ/cm ${}^{mathbf {2}}$ , the responsivity of the Si PD decreases by 6 %, while the SiC and GaN PDs show virtually no change in responsivity. Meanwhile, the dark current of the Si PD shows considerably larger increase than those of the SiC and GaN PDs upon pulsed UV laser irradiation.

Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) modes, as vortex beams with well-defined OAM (orbital angular momentum), have been extensively studied. For applications, accurate identification of the radial and azimuthal indices of LG beams is essential. Various methods have been proposed to identify these indices. However, most of these approaches can only identify one of the two indices. In particular, by employing a $pi /2$ mode converter, LG modes can be transformed into the corresponding HG modes. In this case, the two indices of a single LG mode can then be indirectly determined from the number of intensity lobes of the transformed single HG mode. However, this method is limited to identifying beams with a single LG mode and is not applicable to beams with multiple LG modes. To overcome this limitation, we propose a method to decompose beams containing multiple LG modes based on the $pi /2$ mode converter. The proposed method can determine the mode composition and weight coefficients of beams with multiple LG modes. Crucially, this method requires only intensity measurements and no phase information, which significantly facilitates its applications. Moreover, the simulation results validate the proposed method and demonstrate its robustness under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions.

Neuromorphic systems require energy-efficient non-volatile memories (NVMs) with electrical and optical tunability. We demonstrate phototunable bipolar resistive switching (RS) in Ag/(PEA)${}_{mathbf {3}}$ EuBr${}_{mathbf {6}}$ /FTO devices using a 2D Eu-based perovskite switching layer (SL). The devices displayed forming-free operation with low SET/RESET voltages (±0.48 V in dark, ±0.42 V under 365 nm illumination). UV illumination enhances the memory window ($sim 3.0boldsymbol {times }$ 10${}^{mathbf {3}}$ to $sim 4.8boldsymbol {times } 10^{mathbf {3}}$ ) and exhibited improved endurance and retention properties. Synaptic behaviors, including potentiation/depression and EPSC responses, exhibit higher linearity and expanded dynamic range under optical bias. Ultralow switching energies (0.62/0.27 pJ in dark; 1.23/0.17 pJ under UV) highlight the efficiency of this system. These results establish Eu-based 2D perovskites as promising, eco-friendly candidates for phototunable neuromorphic memory.

In this letter, we propose a novel approach for a $2.05~mu $ m high-energy single-frequency pulsed polarization-maintaining Tm-doped fiber (TDF) laser amplifier, by utilizing a different length of unpumped Ho-doped fiber (HDF) as an efficient amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) absorber in the pre-amplifier stage to suppress the ASE and parasitic oscillation of the main amplifier. At an injected power of 8 mW into the main amplifier, the preamplifier signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is increased from 40 dB to 46 dB, and the maximum pulse energy of the main amplifier is $820~mu $ J, corresponding to a peak power of 2.2 kW at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 2 kHz and a pulse width of 370 ns. At a preamplifier pump power of 3 W, the preamplifier SNR is increased from 28 dB to 47 dB, and the pulse energy of the main amplifier is boosted from $430~mu $ J to $780~mu $ J at the optimal length of the HDF, raising the parasitic oscillation threshold by 1.8 times. The linewidth of the single-frequency light is about 1.82 MHz, which is close to the Fourier transform limit. The beam quality factor M2 is estimated to be about 1.12 in the $x$ direction and 1.18 in the $y$ direction, respectively.

Structured illumination microscopy based on phase-shift technique (PS-SIM) has been proposed for precise three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction. In this method, multi frames with pre-defined phase difference are used to calculate the modulation and further determine the 3D shape. Although PS-SIM can reach high measurement accuracy, this method is sensitive to phase-shift error and harmonics caused by digital micro-mirror device (DMD) and camera. In this letter, we propose a method named pixel reassigned structured illumination microscope (PR-SIM), which has the ability to resist harmonics and achieve high measurement accuracy. In this method, the pixels of three phase-shift images are reassigned to generate a new fusion image. After that, two-dimensional Fourier transform is performed on the generated image to obtain the frequency spectrum. In frequency domain, the part of harmonics is effectively separated, and thus precise modulation distribution can be determined. Compared with conventional PS-SIM, this method can effectively suppress the influence of harmonics and achieve accurate measurement. The simulations and experiments are conducted to justify the feasibility of proposed method.

An accurate dispersion measurement approach for chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) based on a wavelength-tunable mode-locked fiber laser is proposed and demonstrated. The relationship between group delay and the mode-locked laser’s repetition rate is analytically derived. Dispersion information and the tunning ranges of $2^{mathbf {nd}}$ and $3^{mathbf {rd}}$ dispersion coefficients of a commercial tunable CFBG are determined experimentally, which are agree well with the specifications provided by the manufacturer. Compared with other techniques, the proposed method is straightforward to operate. The retrieved high-order dispersion information of CFBGs will be greatly benefit to the fiber chirped-pulse amplification system and ultrafast laser techniques.
