The emerging field of biosensors and bioelectronics seeks to exploit biology in combination
with the recent advances in engineering. Even though biomedical implants can significantly …

We have studied the plasmon-driven photoreaction of a dual thiol-anchored o-nitrobenzyl-
based photouncaging ligand on silver nanoparticles. Previous results have shown that this …

Since silica goes under the category of amorphous materials, it is difficult to investigate
important processes such as second harmonic generation (SHG) in silica-based fibers. In …

We demonstrate the creation of anisotropic patchy silver nanospheroids (AgNSs) using
linearly polarized UV light and a photo-uncaging o-nitrobenzyl-based ligand, which anchors …

Several models have been employed for second-harmonic generation (SHG) in optical
fibers. Their common drawback is the low conversion efficiency of SHG. When cladding …

The exact solution of the modal dispersion relation of multilayer optical fibers is very critical
and complicated, especially in the case of complex refractive indices of some layers added …

In this paper, the outstanding influence of self-phase modulation (SPM) induced by thermal
nonlinear refractive index (TNRI) in graphene-clad microfiber on laser pulse width, during …

Graphene based optical modulators have been successfully implemented as a saturable
absorber (SA) in ultrafast mode-locked fiber lasers (MLFLs). Interaction of evanescent field …

A major limitation of silica-based high-Q microcavities is the lack of functionalities such as
gain, plasmonic resonance, and second-order nonlinearity. Silica possesses third order …

This work investigates the relationship between the Q factor of a silica microsphere coated
with nonlinear optical molecules and the surface density of the nonlinear molecules. Two …
