We shall report the latest progress on AWESOME (Airbus Water Emulsification Sensor using Optical Monitoring Equipment), which seeks to use spectrally multiplexed guided and leaky mode Bragg gratings to quantify dissolved (5ppm-v resolution), free and emulsified water contamination at multiple physical points within a fuel tank.

We propose a millimeter-wave synthesizer design based on soliton microcombs. Stable and tunable 100–300 GHz millimeter-wave signals are expected to be generated with a high-speed photodiode.

We investigate a novel coherent receiver for Analog-over-Fiber systems that does not employ digital phase estimation or phase-locked loops; instead it uses a feed-forward carrier recovery analog circuit. The receiver is presented and its performance with multicarrier RF signals is investigated by means of numerical simulations.

This paper describes a new technique for recovering low-power signals of interest with which a high-power signal is interfering. Suppression of the interferer is accomplished using the same Mach-Zehnder modulator characteristic leveraged by others, but the new technique also suppresses the strongest intermodulation distortion product.

We present a new platform for nonlinear Kerr photonics based on the material tantala. Our results show how tantala-based microcomb and supercontinuum devices can be designed, fabricated, and packaged for use in low-power integrated-optics systems.

A new method for defining Bragg gratings in optical multicore fiber is presented. Small-Spot Direct UV Writing enable different cores of a multicore fiber to be individually addressed, enabling spectral multiplexing at co-located positions. We demonstrate for the time the inscription of a seven core fiber using Small-Spot Direct UV Writing, achieving low cross talk and evaluating the bend sensitivity of the fiber.
