Chip-scale, CMOS-compatible, high energy passively Q-switched laser

Neetesh Singh, Jan Lorenzen, Milan Sinobad +13

Chip-scale, high-energy optical pulse generation is becoming increasingly important as we expand activities into hard to reach areas such as space and deep ocean. Q-switching of th…

Soliton Pulses in Photonic Crystal Fabry-Perot Microresonators

Thibault Wildi, Mahmoud A. Gaafar, Thibault Voumard +2

Dissipative Kerr solitons (DKSs) in high-Q microresonators enable applications in sensing, communication, and signal processing. Until now, DKSs driven by continuous-wave (CW) lase…

Fourier optics with linearly tapered waveguides: light trapping and focusing

Mahmoud A. Gaafar, Hagen Renner, Manfred Eich +1

An optical pulse asymptotically reaching zero group velocity in tapered waveguides can ultimately stop at a certain position in the taper accompanied by a strong spatial compressio…

Optical Push Broom On a Chip

Mahmoud A. Gaafar, He Li, Xinlun Cai +3

Here we report the first experimental demonstration of light trapping by a refractive index front in a silicon waveguide, the optical push broom effect. The front generated by a fa…

Linear Schrödinger equation with temporal evolution for front induced transitions

Mahmoud A. Gaafar, Hagen Renner, Alexander Y. Petrov +1

The nonlinear Schrödinger equation based on slowly varying approximation is usually applied to describe the pulse propagation in nonlinear waveguides. However, for the case of the…
