However, traditional chip-scale optical tweezers are often static and allow for only one type of manipulation functionality since the geometrical parameters of the tweezers are fixed. Herein, we introduce a new, to the best of our knowledge, class of on-chip optical tweezers for diverse types of manipulation of micro-particles. Utilizing both the propagation phase and Pancharatnam-Berry phase, we experimentally demonstrate the spin-dependent trapping, moving, and circling of micro-particles with the transfer of optical gradient force and orbital angular momentum to particles. We further show that the spin angular momentum of the output beam provides an additional degree of freedom to control the spinning rotation of particles. This new type of optical tweezers paves the way for multifunctional and dynamical trapping and manipulation of particles with a lab-on-a-chip system. ? 2022 Optica Publishing GroupAccession Number: 20220711646216 -

Title:Simultaneous generation of a broadband MIR and NIR frequency comb in a GaP microring
Author(s):Wang, Yi(1,2); Shi, Lei(1,2); Wu, Wei(1,2); Ming, Xianshun(1); Sun, Qibing(1); Wang, Leiran(1,2); Zhao, Wei(1,2)Source: Applied Optics Volume: 61 Issue: 10 DOI: 10.1364/AO.454007 Published: April 1, 2022Abstract:Midinfrared (MIR) optical frequency combs are of great significance as broadband coherent light sources used in extensive areas such as coherent communications and molecule detections. Conventional MIR combs are usually restricted in size and power, while most microcombs are focused in the near-infrared (NIR) region because of the limited accessible Q-factor of microrings and the poor performances of available pumps. In this paper, we numerically demonstrate the simultaneous generation of a broadband MIR and NIR comb in a GaP microring with an additive waveguide. The achieved octave-spanning (1890-4050 nm)MIRmicrocomb at a lowpump power of 34 mW can be effectively converted to the second-harmonic NIR comb covering 1120-1520 nm with separate dispersion optimization of the ring cavity and straight waveguide. The proposed system has the advantage of simple structure and lowpower threshold, which could find potential in highly integrated MIRoptical sources and related applications. ? 2022 Optica Publishing Group.Accession Number: 20221311864800 -

The Raman spectra and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves were measured to characterize the structural and thermal properties of the glass samples. The emission properties of Er3+-doped TBLL glasses were studied under a 980 nm LD excitation, and the related transition mechanism was discussed. Intense fluorescence emission was noted at 1.55 μm and 2.71 μm, and the intensities of emissions increased monotonically as the Er2O3 doping concentration increased from 0.5 to 6.0 mol%. The absorption and emission cross sections of Er3+-doped TBLL glass at 2.71 μm were estimated to be 7.90 × 10?21 and 8.47 × 10?21 cm2 using the Fuchtbauer–Ladenburg theory, respectively, which are much higher than those of many reported tellurite glasses. Furthermore, the undoped and 6.0 mol% Er2O3 doped TBLL bare fibers were prepared. Their chemical durability was tested in deionized water, and the results indicated that the TBLL glass exhibited good antideliquescence ability. Finally, a broad emission band at ～2720 nm was detected in the 6.0 mol% Er2O3 doped TBLL bare fiber. These results demonstrate that the novel Er3+-doped TBLL fluorotellurite glass is a candidate for ～3 μm fiber lasers. ? 2022Accession Number: 20221311874140 -

In this paper, we demonstrate a light-controlled pulsed x-ray tube using multialkali cathode as electron generator. The photocathode active area of the light controlled x-ray tube is 13.2 cm2 (41 mm in diameter), which provides high photoelectron-emitting efficiency up to 0.288 mA/lm in 460-nm LED and 2.37-mA maximum tube current. Furthermore, the modulation ability from 1 kHz to 100 kHz of the x-ray tube is tested. The results suggest that the light-controlled pulsed x-ray tube has easy modulation and short x-ray pulse properties and is promising to be the next generation x-ray tube with wide applications in medical radiationtherapy as well as the calibration for detectors and scintillators. ? 2021 Chinese Physical Society and IOP Publishing Ltd.Accession Number: 20220211453141 -

Title:Hybrid Wavelength- and Mode-division Multiplexing System Based on Microring Resonators with Mode Splitters
Author(s):Han, Xilin(1,2); Zhang, Lingxuan(1,2); Xue, Jintao(1,2); Bao, Shenlei(1,2); Wu, Jinyi(1,2); Mi, Lei(1)Source: Guangzi Xuebao/Acta Photonica Sinica Volume: 51 Issue: 11 DOI: 10.3788/gzxb20225111.1113002 Published: November 2022Abstract:The applications of silicon photonics in data bearer networks， data centers and other scenarios will support high-speed data transmission. In order to meet the demand， lots of technologies in silicon photonics have emerged， such as Wavelength Division Multiplexing （WDM），Polarization Division Multiplexing （PDM） and Mode Division multiplexing （MDM）. To further increase the channel capacity， the hybrid multiplexing technology is studied based on the technologies above. Our work is such a hybrid WDM-MDM multiplexer. This paper focuses on the design of a microring resonator with mode splitter. First of all， the effect of mode splitting is better at a longer length， but we need to put the mode splitter into the microring resonator， and such a high mode separation efficiency and coupling efficiency will lead to low efficiency of microring resonance. So， we take the appropriate length. Secondly， an asymmetric structure for the geometry of the mode splitter is designed. One side of the structure is a waveguide with a width of 0.88 nm， allowing high order mode transmission， and the other side is a slot waveguide with a width of 0.86 nm， with an air gap of 50 nm in the middle. The advantage of this structure is that it can effectively split TE0and TE1 modes. In addition， for microring resonators， we can select the desired resonant wavelength by designing appropriate parameters such as radius， waveguide width， coupling region length and gap. By simulating the proposed structure with the finite difference time domain method， the multiplexer and demultiplexer can realize ultra-compact WDM-MDM structure at C band. The microring resonator has a response of -0.66 dB to TE1 mode input， a Q value of 3 692， and an optical bandwidth of 52 GHz. Its free spectral range is 1.03 THz， and the crosstalk generated by TE0 mode is -11.0 dB. The insertion loss of the microring resonator is as low as -0.66 dB. Based on this， we also propose a transmitter-receiver MDM system with dual mode input. The simulation results show that the dual-mode input MDM system based on microring resonator can effectively separate TE0 and TE1 modes， and the microring also has the ability of wavelength selection. In addition， the through ports with fabrication tolerance from -10 nm to +15 nm have responses of less than -20 dB， while the response of the drop ports remains within -1 dB. Compared with other devices， our design has advantages in insertion loss， crosstalk and FSR. In conclusion， proposed system using wavelength-mode multiplexing mircroring can effectively separate the TE0 and TE1 modes and has the ability of wavelength selection， which may be the main device for ultra-compact hybrid multiplexing technology in near future. ? 2022 Chinese Optical Society.

According to the optical diffraction theory, the spatial resolution of imaging system is determined by the wavelength of illumination light and the numerical aperture of microscope objective. In the practical imaging process, the resolutions of microscopic imaging system obtained from different criteria are slightly different. It is necessary to select an appropriate criterion according to the coherence of light sources and the structural characteristics of obsversed targets to accurately calculate the resolutions of imaging system. In this paper, the calculation methods for spatial resolution under different conditions are provided via theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Furthermore, we compare and discusse the difference of imaging resolutions under the illuminations of coherent and incoherent light sources for double points and double slits targets, respectively. ? 2022 Chinese Society of Astronautics.

The results are quite different for the generation of broadband photosource. In this work, broadband photosource with a wide spectral range based on two pulsed seed lasers is investigated. A high flatness spectrum with a bandwidth greater than 300 nm and predicted spectrum up to 2000 nm covering Er and Tm emission regime has been obtained by amplifying soliton pulsed laser. 370-mW higher average power broadband photosource has been obtained based on the amplification of dissipative soliton lasers. The proposed broadband photosource does not need to add further nonlinear medium in case of introducing unnecessary losses. These results pave the way for the realization of broadband, high flatness spectrum, compact light sources, and the use of all-fiber optic structure to lay the foundation for integration and detection applications, etc. ? 2022 Elsevier LtdAccession Number: 20223112456898 -

Title:Overcoming the snaking instability and nucleation of dark solitons in nonlinear Kerr media by spatially inhomogeneous defocusing nonlinearity
Author(s):Liu, Xiuye(1,2); Zeng, Jianhua(1,2)Source: Chaos, Solitons and Fractals Volume: 156 Issue: DOI: 10.1016/j.chaos.2022.111803 Published: March 2022Abstract:Dark solitons, localized nonlinear waves with center notch standing on a stable uniform background, own rich formation and dynamics for physics and applications in diverse fields, and have thus recently attracted many theoretical and experimental studies. Transverse modulational instability is an impeditive factor for dark solitons in multidimensional space, to stabilize them various methods have been proposed. We here take use of a purely nonlinear strategy by introducing quasi-one-dimensional Gaussian like trap, and its combination with the external linear harmonic trap, in the framework of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Gross-Pitaveski/nonlinear Schr?dinger equation, to realize the stabilization mechanism of dark-soliton stripes. Variational approximation analytical method, linear-stability analysis and direct perturbed numerical simulations are adopted to carry out the study, and agreement is reached. We demonstrate that the dark-soliton stripes can be stabilized completely, and the associated modulational instability wave number band is reduced greatly. Particularly, in the case of linear harmonic trap, the nucleation of dark solitons, subjected to snaking instability, can be overcome by the nonlinear trap with both defocusing and focusing strengths. The predicted results may be realized in Bose-Einstein condensates and nonlinear optics. ? 2022 Elsevier LtdAccession Number: 20220511582168
