We demonstrate that n-doped resistive heaters in silicon waveguides show photoconductive effects with high responsivities. These photoconductive heaters, integrated into microring resonator (MRR)-based filters, were used to automatically tune and stabilize the filter's resonance wavelength to the input laser's wavelength. This is achieved without requiring dedicated defect implantations, additi...

Optical trapping forces depend on the difference between the trap wavelength and the extinction resonances of trapped particles. This leads to a wavelength-dependent trapping force, which should allow for the optimization of optical tweezers systems, simply by choosing the best trapping wavelength for a given application. Here we present an optical tweezer system with wavelength tunability, for...

in this study, we have theoretically investigated designing possibility of a seismometer using fiber bragg grating (fbg) and metal bellows pairs attached on a mechanical system. this new seismometer can record earthquakes according to sensitivity of fiber optic to changes in physical parameters such as stress and strain. firstly, in order to understand the quantity and quality of sensor perform...

We propose using blazed gratings in the resonance domain with period larger than the wavelength for anti-reflection and polarization selection. The inherent problem in this region is wavelength dispersion, which is solved by analyzing the total reflectivity and electric field distribution. The positional relationship between the area of strong electric field, and the side and tip of the grating...

By combining a polymer-clad optic fiber and a vitreous-clad optic fiber, we proposed and fabricated a novel optic fiber surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor to conduct two-channel sensing at the same detection area. The traditional optic fiber SPR sensor has many disadvantages; for example, removing the cladding requires corrosion, operating it is dangerous, adjusting the dynamic response ran...

A three-wavelength angular-scanning surface plasmon resonance based analysis has been utilized for characterizing optical properties of organic nanometer-thick layers with a wide range of thicknesses. The thickness and refractive index were determined for sample layers with thicknesses ranging from subnanometer to hundreds of nanometers. The analysis approach allows for simultaneous determinati...
