We demonstrate a 4-core fiber amplifier that has strongly coupled cores at both the pump and signal wavelengths.
We show combined SDM/WDM transmission over a novel 7-core coupled-core fiber over distances up to 12100 km for QPSK and 4400 km for 16QAM signals, with corresponding spectral efficiency of 21 bit/s
We show combined WDM/SDM transmission over a novel 7-core impulse-response optimized coupledcore fiber making use of a two-stage multicore amplifier
The theory of dielectric optical waveguides deals with electromagnetic wave propagation in optical fibers and in the waveguides used for integrated optics.
The literature currently maintains the assumption that mutual coupling is the mechanism that leads to the degradation of isolation between the active ports of antenna arrays.
We study the dynamics of coarsening in a cylinder-forming polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene-alt-propylene) block copolymer thin film deposited on a topographically patterned substrate.
In this paper, a new eccentric circular iris is introduces. It is designed to couple two cavities in bandpass filters. The frequency characterization is made by a mode-matching method.
Mode coupling phenomena and radiation losses caused by corecladding interface irregularities have been studied extensively for symmetric slab waveguides and for round optical fibers.
We examine the properties of the coupling coefficients of two laser cavities that are coupled by a narrow gap.
We examine the efficiency with which light is reflected back into a single-mode fiber by front surface and multilayer dielectric mirrors.
