Laser-pumped drilling carbon nanotube vortex shock waves in optical fibers
Ricardo E. da Silva, Marcos A. R. Franco
We experimentally demonstrate laser-induced vortex shock waves formed by carbon nanotubes drilling optical fibers for the first time. Three samples of standard single-mode optical…

Widely tunable dual acousto-optic interferometric device based on a hollow core fiber
Ricardo E. da Silva, Jonas H. Osório, Frédéric Gérôme +4
An all-fiber dual Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based on an acoustically modulated hollow-core fiber (HCF) is experimentally demonstrated for the first time. By attaching an ac…

Highly efficient compact acousto-optic modulator based on a hybrid-lattice hollow core fiber
Ricardo E. da Silva, Jonas H. Osório, David J. Webb +4
We demonstrate the acousto-optic modulation of a hybrid-lattice hollow core fiber (HL-HCF) for the first time. For many years, optical fibers with reduced diameters have been the m…
