Experimental observation of subluminal and superluminal light propagation in rhodamine 6G-doped polymethyl methacrylate
Nondegenerate two-wave coupling process and group velocity change in the paraxial part of an intensity-modulated and focused transverse electromagnetic beam (TEM00 beam in the article) was observed in...

A scattering model for surface-textured thin films
We present a mathematical model that relates the surface morphology of randomly surface-textured thin films with the intensity distribution of scattered light. The model is based on the first order Bo...

We report broad near-infrared soliton and associated dispersive wave source generation (1228–1867  nm) and tunable green third harmonic generation (528–542  nm) by LP11 mode excitation in a few-mode tellurite microstructure fiber pumped by a 1557 nm femtosecond fiber laser. The fiber presents a wide range of wavelengths in which the fundamental mode experiences normal dispersion, whereas the higher-order modes propagate in the anomalous dispersion regime. LP01 or LP11 mode can be selectively excited, and obviously different spectra are obtained based on the different mechanisms of supercontinuum generation. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
