An optimized distributed-coupling-coefficient distributed feedback laser is proposed. It simultaneously presents high-yield, high power efficiency and tight wavelength tolerance. So far, such improved performance was only achieved in lasers harder to manufacture.

We report all-optical in-band OSNR monitoring at 160 Gb/s via slow-light enhanced third harmonic generation in a 2D silicon photonic crystal waveguide, achieving better performance than quadratic methods.

We demonstrate the first Cs atomic laser operating at 852.1 nm pumped by photoassociating transient Cs-rare gas pairs. This scheme is well suited for high-power diode pumping and indicates that collisional relaxation is not required.

Strong regenerated gratings with a maximum grating strength exceeding (40-50) dB are fabricated inside an optical fibre by bulk macro thermal processing ~900degC using a UV-laser seeded Bragg grating. Further annealing between 1000 and 1100degC leads to a stabilised grating ~18 dB in strength. This suffers no further degradation at 1100degC for the period monitored, over 4 hrs. To determine the potential resolution of this process, two regenerated complex profiles with no phase difference between seed and processed structures is reported. This opens the way for nano-engineering of materials using thermal processing and seed templates.

The effect of rapid thermal annealing on PEDOT-PSS films has been investigated by Raman spectroscopy. The analysis indicates the formation of an annealing-induced doping in the PEDOT structure, suggesting a modification of the electronic structure.

In order to extend the photo response of GaAs to optical telecommunication wavelengths, In and N can be incorporated into GaAs to yield a perfect lattice match of InxGa1-xAs1-yNy with GaAs with a bandgap that strongly decreases with increasing N composition. The potential usage of such a material as photodetectors and photovoltaic applications has been reported.In this work, we investigate the dark current mechanisms in the InxGa1-xAs1-yNy material.
