These characterizations include calculations of throughput, control space, sensor linearity, and an estimate of maximum linear reconstruction range for standard and hybrid lanterns with 3 to 19 ports, at a wavelength of 1550 nm. We additionally consider the impact of beam-shaping optics and a charge-1 vortex mask, placed in the pupil plane. The former is motivated by the application of PLs to high-resolution spectroscopy, which could enable efficient injection into the spectrometer along with simultaneous focal-plane wavefront sensing; similarly, the latter is motivated by the application of PLs to vortex fiber nulling (VFN), which can simultaneously enable wavefront sensing and the nulling of on-axis starlight. Overall, we find that the PLWFS setups tested in this work exhibit good linearity out to ~0.25-0.5 radians of RMS wavefront error (WFE). Meanwhile, we estimate the maximum amount of WFE that can be handled by these sensors, before the sensor response becomes degenerate, to be around ~1-2 radians RMS. In the future, we expect these limits can be pushed further by increasing the number of degrees of freedom, either by adopting higher-mode-count lanterns, dispersing lantern outputs, or separating polarizations. Lastly, we consider optimization strategies for the design of the PLWFS, which involve both modification of the lantern itself and the use of pre- and post-lantern optics like phase masks and interferometric beam recombiners.","PeriodicalId":17280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Optical Society of America B-optical Physics","volume":"8 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135169444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For linear propagation, our results show that Airy pulses will keep the acceleration-free propagation behaviors under the action of pure-quartic dispersion, quite different from the case in the presence of only quadratic or cubic dispersion. Another notable observation is that the optical fields will evolve to become a symmetric-shaped pulse and the oscillatory tail is gradually suppressed over long propagation. For nonlinear propagation, the Airy pulse having high powers will be shed into multiple soliton dynamics through the physical balance between anomalous pure-quartic dispersion and the Kerr nonlinear effect.","PeriodicalId":17280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Optical Society of America B-optical Physics","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135944808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through the rotation of two LiTaO 3 columns, the symmetry protection can be broken, resulting in a quasi-BIC with a high quality factor. The multipolar analysis of each BIC confirms that the dominant pole aligns closely with the electromagnetic field. Additionally, we demonstrate the tunability of the quasi-BIC’s quality factor by modifying the Fermi level of graphene, designing a terahertz (THz)-wave modulator with a remarkable modulation depth more than 90% and a modulation range of 36 meV, 108 meV, 30 meV, 1.2 meV, and 42 meV. Furthermore, the sensing performance of the metasurface is investigated. The sensitivity of peak1 is measured at 0.41 THz/RIU, peak2 at 0.4 THz/RIU, peak3 at 1.049 THz/RIU, peak4 at 0.34 THz/RIU, and peak5 at 1.59 THz/RIU, and the figure of merit of these BICs is calculated as 455.56RIU −1 , 62.8RIU −1 , 11,655.56RIU −1 , 17,000RIU −1 , and 7,950RIU −1 , respectively.

However, the incompatibility between high extinction ratio and short interaction length is a problem for miniaturization. In addition, current passive designs make polarization filters work in a fixed wavelength band, which limits the dynamic polarization control. Here, we integrate subwavelength metal gratings on graphene-covered D-shaped single-mode fibers to achieve tunable polarization filters, whose operating bandwidth has a significant improvement over previous works. In the simulation, the x -polarized mode couples effectively with the surface plasmon polariton mode and suffers extremely high transmission loss (up to ∼38dB/mm). At the same time, the y -polarized mode remains low insertion loss of ∼0.58dB/mm. By changing the chemical potential of graphene, the loss peak of the x -polarized mode can be adjusted in the range covering the wavelength bands from 1.272 to 1.353 µm or from 1.54 to 1.612 µm, which results in an adjustable broadband filter with a high extinction ratio over 20 dB. The proposed filter provides a promising polarization control scheme for integrated devices in the fields of communication, sensing, and lasing.","PeriodicalId":17280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Optical Society of America B-optical Physics","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136077412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
