Recent topics of our Ultra 3G such as new global submarine cable systems and WiMAX are reviewed.

But apart from circular cavity, exact expressions of wave-functions and spectrum are still unknown for all other cavity shapes. The difficulty originates from two separated factors: non-linearities induced by the boundary shape and diffraction at the corners. Here we propose an analytical perturbation method for nearly circular cavities and give general formulae up to the second order in the perturbation parameter for the wave-functions, the spectrum, and the far-field pattern. This approach is confirmed with the example of the cut-disk (a chaotic cavity shape with corners) by numerical simulations based on the Boundary Element Method and experiments with organic micro-lasers. This analytical method can be extended to a broad diversity of cavity shapes. We discuss its range of validity in length scale and the limit of the effective refractive index approximation which underlies the two-dimensional approximation.","PeriodicalId":230802,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th Anniversary International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124624761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By use of harmonic and sum frequency generation a nearly continuous ultra-wide band coverage from the ultraviolet through the entire visible to the near-infrared is achieved. The up-converted radiation appears in the form of ultra-short pulses with a repetition rate of approximately 100 MHz and average power levels ranging from few to more than 100 mW. In addition, we report on a concept for broadband-to-narrowband frequency doubling. Under this novel, highly efficient scheme, the harmonic component is subjected to simultaneous spectral filtering and brightness enhancement. Such performance characteristics may be of great interest to numerous applications, including high-capacity data storage, frequency-comb generation, bioimaging and spectroscopy.","PeriodicalId":230802,"journal":{"name":"2008 10th Anniversary International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127688697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
