In this paper, we present the unidirectional coupling behavior of a laterally coupled VCSEL and slow light modulator/amplifier. When we pump VCSEL and modulator/amplifier separately, the strong coupling takes place from the VCSEL while a week coupling can be seen for the opposite direction. Experimental results are presented to testify our concept.

A multi-color tunable picosecond laser source was demonstrated in a fiber optical parametric oscillator. By cascade four-wave mixing process in the photonic crystal fiber, we obtained picosecond pulses at 9 wavelengths with average power of milliwatt level.

We propose and demonstrate a novel refractive index (RI) sensor based on an ultra-weak intrinsic fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI), which is simply fabricated by splicing a tiny section of thin-core fiber (TCF) to a standard single-mode fiber (SMF). The fusion interface (SMF/TCF) and the well cleaved TCF end face form a low fringe contrast FPI in the air. It exhibits an average RI sensitivity of 240dB/RIU over a wide RI range of 1.3326–1.4305, with a maximum sensitivity of 1110.7dB/RIU at the RI of 1.4305.

Silicon wayeguides fabricated on silicon-on-insulator wafers are leaky in nature. This fact puts a lower bound on the insulator thickness in silicon photonic structures as integrated with state-of-the-art electronic devices. We examine this constraint from the angle of finite gain compensation for leakage loss using m-V semiconductor gain media bonded to passive silicon waveguides.

We report the first fabrication of a polarization converter in a highly birefringent elliptical microfiber, which is made by periodically twisting a microfiber with an ellipticity of ∼0.7 and a diameter of ∼2.8 along its major axis. Strong input polarization suppression of ∼20 dB is achieved at a resonant wavelength of ∼1556.4 nm with a device length of ∼3.12 mm, one or even more two orders of magnitude shorter than that fabricated in the conventional Hi-Bi fiber. This device demonstrates temperature stability, which is of 15pm/O.

Common surface plasmon resonance refractive index sensors often use side polished, tapered or etched fiber to enable evanescent wave to reach the metal-dielectric interface. These processes are often complex and make fiber fragile. In this paper, we fabricate a simple structure formed by multimode fiber and no-core fiber to stimulate surface plasmon wave. According to our research, the sensitivity of the sensor can reach −48.6 dB/RIU, and the resolution is 2.06 × 10−4 RIU. When surrounding refractive index is beyond 1.353, the sensitivity is 1582.5nm/RIU and the resolution is 1.26 × 10−4 RIU.

We propose a new scheme to realize optical logic gates using polarization addition with direct detection. Two polarizations of the optical signal are modulated respectively by two binary inputs to represent four different states, while direct detection is used to map the four states to the corresponding binary output. Experiments are successfully carried out to realize 4 basic logic gates at the data rate of 1Gbit/s.

We present a flip-chip integration process in which the vertical alignment is guaranteed by a mechanical contact between pedestals defined in a recess etched into a silicon photonics chip and a laser or semiconductor optical amplifier. By selectively etching up to the active region of the III-V materials, we can make the accuracy of vertical alignment independent on the process control applied to layer thicknesses during silicon photonics or III-V chip fabrication, enabling alignment tolerances below ±10 nm in the vertical (Z-)direction.
