Dispersion, as the characteristic variation of refractive index with wavelength, is more pronounced, where the wavelength is approaching to the absorption band. In ultra-optical glasses, the nonlinear refractive index, concerning to the light intensity dependent phenomenon, becomes considerable. Here, two ultra-optical property glass systems; TiO2-Bi2O3-PbO (TBP...

We describe two mechanical light chopper blade designs that can be used, with a monochromator and broadband light-source-based spectroscopy setup, to perform wavelength modulation spectroscopy. The left and the right half of a beam emerging from a monochromator would have spectral distributions that are skewed to longer and shorter wavelengths about the central wavelength for positive grating o...

We have recorded from wavelength-selective cells in macaque monkey visual area V2, interposed between areas V1 and V4 of the color-specialized pathway, to learn whether their responses correlate with perceived colors or are determined by the wavelength composition of light reflected from their receptive fields. All the cells we recorded from were unselective for the orientation and direction of...

A white-light fiber-optic interferometer working in the spatial domain, using a special three-peak-wavelength LED as a light source and one of the two arms of the Michelson interferometer as a strain sensor, is presented. Based on the Gaussian spectrum distribution function, a simple spectrum-decomposing method is used to describe the special three-peak-wavelength LED source. Experimental and t...

We report a type of infrared switchable plasmonic quantum cascade laser, in which far field light in the midwave infrared (MWIR, 6.1 μm) is modulated by a near field interaction of light in the telecommunications wavelength (1.55 μm). To achieve this all-optical switch, we used cross-polarized bowtie antennas and a centrally located germanium nanoslab. The bowtie antenna squeezes the short wave...

This paper presents a numerical study of the light focusing properties of dielectric spheroids with sizes comparable to the illuminating wavelength. An analytical separation-of-variables method is used to determine the electric field distribution inside and in the near-field outside the particles. An optimization algorithm was implemented in the method to determine the particles' physical param...

We reported a record high power (>250 mW) and compact near-infrared fiber-optic femtosecond Cherenkov radiation source and its new application on nonlinear light microscopy for the first time (to our best knowledge). The high power femtosecond Cherenkov radiation was generated by 1.03 μm femtosecond pulses from a portable diode-pumped laser and a photonic crystal fiber as a compact, flexible, a...
