Spatial Multiplexing for Long Haul<br />

Transmission, S. Randel, R. Ryf, and<br />

P. J. Winzer, Alcatel-Lucent, Holmdel, NJ, USA<br />

Spatial multiplexing has the potential to overcome<br />

the capacity-bottleneck of single-fiber<br />

long-haul links. We review recent experimental<br />

progress and discuss relevant performance vs.<br />

complexity trade-offs from a systems perspective.<br />

WV1 1:30 PM - 2:00 PM (Invited)<br />

Bismide Alloys for Photonic Devices:<br />

Potential and Progress, S. J. Sweeney,<br />

University of Surrey, Guildford, Surrey, UK<br />

This paper discusses how the addition of<br />

Bismuth to III-V alloys gives rise to improved<br />

band structure potentially offering reduced nonradiative<br />

losses and improved temperature<br />

stability for de devices in the near- and midinfrared.<br />

WW1 1:30 PM - 2:00 PM (Invited)<br />

Efficient Generation and Wavelength<br />

Conversion of Single Photons from<br />

Quantum Nanophotonic Devices,<br />

K. Srinivasan, S. Ates, I. Agha, M. Davanço,<br />

M. T. Rakher, National Institute of Standards and<br />

Technology, Gaithersburg, MD, USA and A.<br />

Badolato, University of Rochester, Rochester, NY,<br />

USA<br />

Single photon sources based on a self-assembled<br />

quantum dot in nanophotonic waveguides,<br />

gratings, and cavities are interfaced with<br />

nonlinear media and electro-optic modulators to<br />

demonstrate quantum frequency conversion and<br />

amplitude modulation of single photon states.<br />

\<br />

WX1 1:30 PM - 2:00 PM (Invited)<br />

Laser Science in a Nanoscopic Gap,<br />

R. F. Oulton, Imperial College London, London,<br />

UK<br />

We review recent progress on plasmonic lasers<br />

that exhibit confinement to 1/20th of the wavelength.<br />

Our new experiments now exploit this<br />

confinement to strongly enhance light-matter<br />

interactions suggesting possible applications for<br />

plasmonic lasers.<br />

WU2 2:00 PM - 2:15 PM<br />

Effect of Bend Radius on Equalizer<br />

Complexity for Multimode Coherent<br />

MIMO Transmission, H. H. Al-Hashimi,<br />

University Erlangen-Nuernberg, Erlangen,<br />

Germany, H. Buelow, Alcatel-Lucent, Erlangen,<br />

Germany and B. Schmauss, University of<br />

Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany<br />

The required equalizer complexity for GI-MMF<br />

(graded index multi-mode fiber) transmitting 15<br />

spatial modes is numerically calculated with<br />

different bend radius in 112 Gb/s DP-QPSK<br />

transmission<br />

WV2 2:00 PM - 2:30 PM (Invited)<br />

III-Nitride Lasers Based on Bulk<br />

Nonpolar/Semipolar GaN, J. W. Raring,<br />

Soraa, Fremont, CA, USA<br />

GaN laser diodes will fuel a market explosion for<br />

emerging display and specialty lighting applications.<br />

Here we report performance advances in<br />

nonpolar/semipolar orientated blue and green<br />

laser diodes with high efficiency and high output<br />

power.<br />

WW2 2:00 PM - 2:30 PM (Invited)<br />

Low Photon Number Nonlinear a Single<br />

Quantum Dot Coupled to a Photonic<br />

Crystal Cavity, E. Waks, D. Sridharan, R. Bose,<br />

H. Kim, University of Maryland, College Park,<br />

MD, USA and G. S. Solomon, National Institute<br />

of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD,<br />

USA<br />

We describe our work on engineering nonlinear<br />

optical devices using quantum dots coupled to<br />

optical resonators. These systems enable large<br />

optical Stark shifts and all optical switching with<br />

low photon numbers.<br />

WX2 2:00 PM - 2:15 PM<br />

Spontaneous Emission Rate<br />

Enhancement using Gold Nanorods,<br />

N. Kumar, K. Messer and M. Eggleston,<br />

University of California - Berkeley, Berkeley, CA,<br />

USA<br />

We present a 7nm bare InGaAsP quantum well<br />

coupled to a gold nanorod. Photoluminescence<br />

measurements show an increased spontaneous<br />

emission rate of at least 4.5x without sacrificing<br />

efficiency.<br />
