We demonstrate a tunable optical filter with extinction ratio of 37 dB by integrating microring resonator with a microfluidic chip. Tuning is obtained by on-chip mixing of two liquids with different refractive indices.

Crystalline solid-state Raman lasers offer practical and efficient frequency conversion from existing (pulsed) solid-state laser sources which, in combination with SFG, provides for wavelength selection from near-ir to visible and uv at multiwatt average powers.

We experimentally study higher order frequency shifts due to the lattice in a 87Sr optical lattice clock. We show that this effect will not limit the fractional accuracy of the clock at the 10-18 level.
