A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.230180, discusses orthogonal matrix of polarization combinations: concept and application to multichannel holographic recording.

Cylindrical vector beam (CVB) multiplexing has emerged as a powerful technique to boost signal channels. Coupling and separating CVBs are two pivotal elements in CVB multiplexing communication.

These devices are the first to demonstrate simultaneous control of all four optical degrees of freedom, namely, amplitude, phase, polarization ellipticity, and polarization orientation--a world record ...

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, Vol. 132, No. 1015 (2020 September), pp. 1-12 (12 pages) The use of single-mode fibers (SMFs) to illuminate radial velocity (RV) spectrographs ...

Polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) is a significant barrier to achieving single-channel data rates at 10 Gbits/second and beyond in optical communication systems. PMD results in pulse broadening and ...

(Nanowerk News) Liquid-crystal (LC) phase modulators are widely used in optical systems because of their advantages of low power consumption, light weight, flexible bandwidth adjustment, and ...
