A new technique to design ultra-broadband

based on linearly chirped fiber Bragg gratings
operated in transmission is presented. Efficient

We demonstrate dual wavelength operation,
wavelength switching, and bistable behaviour in
a Tm:ZBLAN fibre laser operating at 800 nm. The
lasers are built in both single and cascadedcavity
configurations.

Y. Ishii and M. Fukuda,
Toyohashi University of
Technology, Toyohashi,
Aichi, Japan
We report results from
a numerical study of
optical-frequency
signal transmission via
localized surface
plasmons (LSPs).
LSPs excited within a
Au disk on a Si
substrate propagate
over a chain of disks
providing the signal.

C. K. Tan, J. Zhang,
X.-H. Li, G. Liu and
N. Tansu, Lehigh
University, Bethlehem,
PA, USA
First-principle analysis
of the band structure for

out, and the finding
showed the direct
bandgap properties of
this alloy covering the
entire visible spectral
regime applicable for
new visible emitters.

Time-Domain Holography,
M. d. R. Fernández-Ruiz, M. Li and J. Azaña,
Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique,
Montréal, QC, Canada
The exact time-domain counterpart of spatialdomain
holography is introduced and formalized.
Its application for arbitrary complex optical signal
generation based on intensity-only devices (e.g.
single Mach-Zehnder modulator and optical
bandpass filter) is experimentally demonstrated.

National de la Recherche Scientifique, Montréal,
QC, Canada
A novel design of THz-bandwidth all-optical
arbitrary-order differentiators based on phaseshifted
long period fiber/waveguide gratings is
proposed and numerically demonstrated. This
solution offers a dramatically increased tolerance
against practical variations in the grating parameters.

experimentally demonstrated for the first time. A
linear strain sensitivity of 0.640 GHz/m was
obtained.

University of Science and Technology, Wuhan,
Hubei, China
We proposed a fiber Bragg grating based Pr 3+ -

green light generation. Numerical simulations
investigate both steady state and Q-switching
dynamics that qualitatively agree well with
previous experimental demonstrations.

We discuss an analytic
expression for the

(SPPs). Based on
Drude’s model, the
SPP spectral deformation,
determined by
differences in the
intensity decay length,
has been confirmed.
