Dispersion engineering of microresonators is very important for applications, such as optical comb generation which desires wideband flat and small dispersion. In this paper, dispersion investigation has been carried out for whispering gallery mode (WGM) microresonators fabricated by laser micromach...

Aluminum nitride (AlN) is an emerging platform for a wide range of on-chip applications. One promising feature is that both the second- and third-order nonlinearities are available in crystalline AlN waveguides. We design an AlN slot waveguide with a flat and low dispersion over an ultrawide spectra...

Silicon photonic optical phased arrays are promising solutions for solid-state LIDAR. But the nonlinear absorption significantly saturates the optical power in the waveguides at 1.5-μm wavelengths. Besides, the high refractive index contrast of silicon grating exhibits a strong diffractio...

As for vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSEL)-based optical pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) interconnection system, apart from the universal signal distortions like Gaussian noise and fiber dispersion, direct modulation of VCSEL specially induces level nonlinearity and level-dependent nois...

We demonstrate a novel method for obtaining high spatial resolution optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) utilizing recirculating frequency shifter for broadening the optical frequency sweeping. Twelve times broadened optical frequency sweeping is achieved. We obtain 0.97 cm spatial resoluti...

In this paper, dyadic probabilistic shaping (PS) for pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) has been investigated and experimentally demonstrated for intensity-modulation and direct-detection optical interconnection systems. Improved achievable information rate can be obtained under the condition of limit...
