Electronic frequency tuning of an optically pumped far infrared waveguide laser has been achieved by using the Stark effect. Frequency modulation with a 50-kHz modulation frequency and an index greater than 1 has been observed as well as a maximum modulation frequency of 300 kHz.

We demonstrate versatility of femtosecond direct laser writing (DLW) technique for microstructuring of iron-doped and as-grown lithium niobate crystals. Formation of extended, metastable, and re-writable refractive index modulation structures is achievable via fast local photorefractive modification of refractive index at the focus of the writing laser beam, with a modulation of up to ∆n ~ 10, ...

Graphene oxides (GOs) have emerged as precursors offering the potential of a cost-effective and large-scale production of graphene-based materials. Despite that their intrinsic fluorescence property has already brought interest of researchers for optical applications, to date, refractive-index modulation as one of the fundamental aspects of optical properties of GOs has received less attention....

This paper presents the mathematical modeling of three-phase grid connected inverter fed by Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) system with Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). Analysis has been carried out to choose the proper modulation index for maximum output for three-phase inverter. With this modulation index, the variation of the active and reactive power for different loads has been presented alon...

We present a surface-normal plasmonic modulator structure for three-dimensional (3-D) optical interconnects using subwavelength metallic photonic crystals. Optical transmission of the metallic slab was controlled by modulating the plasmonic bandgap of the metallic photonic crystal slab with a moderate index perturbation induced by thermo-optic effects. Our experimental results show that more th...

Coded modulation is a bandwidth efficient schemes that combines the function of coding and modulation. In this paper a comparative study of various modulation techniques such as Trellis coded modulation(TCM),Turbo Trellis coded modulation(TTCM),Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation(BICM) ,Iterative Decoding Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation(BICM-ID) and Superposistion Coded Modulation schemes over Ga...
