Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are inherently sensitive to temperature, axial strain, and
pressure, which can be easily measured by a shift of the Bragg wavelength in their …

High-performance interferometers, gyroscopes, frequency combs, quantum information
experiments and optical clocks rely on the transmission of light beams with the highest …

An objective analysis is carried out of the matricial models representing the polarimetric
properties of light and material media leading to the identification and definition of their …

We describe a first distributed polarization analysis (DPA) system using binary polarization
rotators in an optical frequency domain reflectormeter (OFDR) capable of measuring the …

Polarization Measurement and Control in Optical Fiber Communication and Sensor Systems
A practical handbook covering polarization measurement and control in optical …

A novel method of generating tunable microwave signals in the photonic domain is
proposed. Eighteen pairs of stable dual-wavelength single longitudinal mode lasings are …

A polarization-independent 2× 2 switch based on silicon-wire waveguides has been
realized with a compact size of 600× 500 μm^ 2. Polarization-independent operation was …

We report a novel system for the accurate measurement of all polarization related
parameters, including polarization mode dispersion and polarization dependent loss, using …

In order to achieve wide field-of-view, high-resolution LIDAR, a gating imaging structure
combining an electro-optic crystal and an electron multiplication CCD is constructed …

A measurement of polarization mode dispersion (PMD) vector distribution is implemented
