Second-order nonlinearity is induced inside a Xe-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) by applying an external dc field. The system uniquely allows the linear optical properties to be adjusted by changing the gas pressure, allowing for precise phase matching between the LP01 mode at 1064 nm and the LP02 mode at 532 nm. The dependence of the second-harmonic conversion efficiency on the...

Spectral imaging using transmission grating (TG) based spectrographs has not been effectively utilized for spatially resolved absorption measurements of solid samples, and the role of spatial selection in spectral characteristics remains unexplored. We describe a simple yet efficient method to obtain reliable absorption spectra at sub micrometer spatial resolution for both non-fluorescent and f...

in this paper we report an eco-friendly route for the synthesis of sliver nanoparticles using agaricus bisporus (white button mushroom) extract. the synthesized silver nanoparticles were confirmed and characterized by uv-visible spectrum of the aqueous solution containing silver ions showed a peak at 420 nm corresponding to the surface plasmon absorbance of silver nanoparticles. transmission el...
