TuC1.3 - PHASE NOISE REDUCTION OF A LASER SOURCE BY EXTERNAL PHASE COMPENSATION
Abstract
Abstract
Based on direct phase noise compensation utilizing an external phase modulator, we reduce the laser spectral width from 450 kHz to 60 kHz and detect directly 5 G-symbol/s binary and quaternary phase shift keying signals without digital signal processing electronics.
TuC1.4 - LONG-WAVE INFRARED VARIABLE EMISSIVITY COMBAT IDENTIFICATION PANEL
Abstract
Abstract
A structured thin film with widely variable long-wave emissivity and insignificant change to its visible reflectance is proposed and demonstrated theoretically. An application is dynamic Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) panel viewable at LWIR but optically invisible.
TuC1.5 - ADVANCED HIGH POWER COMPONENTS FOR RF PHOTONIC APPLICATIONS
Abstract
Abstract
In this paper, we present results on high power photodetector and DFB laser technology, developed for RF photonic link applications. Lasers with operation at 1280nm and 1550nm shows >250mW laser output power with low RIN and 22 GHz photodetectors shows 25 dBm output power.
TuC1.1 - OPTICAL BIOSENSING WITH SILICON-NITRIDE MICRORESONATORS
Abstract
Abstract
Silicon-nitride (SiN) microresonators have become versatile tools of linear, nonlinear, and quantum optics. In this talk, we will describe the design of SiN microresonators with adjustable dispersion and Q-factors, and will also discuss the experiments on sensing biological neurotransmitters using SiN microrings.
TuC1.2 - A NOVEL METAMATERIAL BASED MICROFLUIDIC OPTICAL BIOSENSOR
Abstract
Abstract
We describe the design of a novel microfluidic label-free optical biosensor which is able to detect a liquid analyte by measuring the change in the refractive index. A sensitivity greater than 1200 nm/RIU is achieved by this metamaterial / liquid-core waveguide based sensor.

Abstract
Abstract
Infrared LED Scene Projector (IRSP) system is an emerging technology that has made numerous progress in its development and testing. That progress ranges from fabrication and evaluation steps to improve the electronics as well as improvements to the 1Kx1K and 2Kx2K hybrid arrays.
WB2.4 - EVALUATION OF PERFORMANCE, NON-UNIFORMITY AND THERMAL LIMITS FOR INFRARED LED SCENE PROJECTORS
Abstract
Abstract
As the light emitting diodes Infrared Scene Projectors are evolving, the need to evaluate the performance and non-uniformity is at it is all times highest. This paper will describe how the performance of these systems are measured and how the non-uniformity is measured and corrected.
WB2.3 - MID-INFRARED SLEDS: IMPROVEMENTS FROM NEW SUPERLATTICES, METALENS, AND PLASMONICS
Abstract
Abstract
Mid-infrared, cascaded superlattice light emitting diodes (SLEDs) previously achieved radiance of 9 W/cm2/sr. Here we present an overview of work to take performance to the next level: new superlattices and plasmonics to improve quantum efficiency, as well as metalenses for improving light extraction.WE1.2 - Ultrafast nonlinear optical properties and polarisation control with complex plasmonic nanostructures
