Self-phase modulation of submicrojoule femtosecond pulses in a hollow-core photonic-crystal fiber
Hollow-core photonic-crystal fibers (PCFs) capable of transporting sub-100-fs pulses of Ti:sapphire laser radiation in one of their transmission peaks centered around 800 nm have been designed and dem...

White-light generation through ultraviolet-emitting diode and white-emitting phosphor
White-light-emitting diodes are fabricated by using 375 nm emitting InGaN chip with Sr3MgSi2O8:Eu2+ (blue and yellow) or Sr3MgSi2O8:Eu2+, Mn2+ (blue, yellow, and red). At a color temperatur...

High refractive index contrast optical microdisk resonators fabricated from silicon-on-insulator wafers are studied using an external silica fiber taper waveguide as a wafer-scale optical probe. Measurements performed in the 1500 nm wavelength band show that these silicon microdisks can support whispering-gallery modes with quality factors as high as 5.2×105, limited by Rayleigh scattering from fabrication induced surface roughness. Microdisks with radii as small as 2.5 µm are studied, with measured quality factors as high as 4.7×105 for an optical mode volume of 5.3 (
