A compact tunable waveplatebased on negative dielectric liquid crystal photonicbandgap fibers is presented. The birefringence canbe tuned electrically to work as a quarter-waveor a half-wave plate in the wavelength range1520nm-1580nm.CMX2 • 2:30 p.m.Electro-Optic Sampling of Widely Tunable THzTransients with Electric Fields of up to 108 MV/cm, Alexander Sell, Rüdiger Scheu, Alfred Leitenstorfer,Rupert Huber; Univ. of Konstanz, Germany.A novel Er:fiber/Ti:sapphire hybrid laser generatesphase-locked few-cycle terahertz transients tunablefrom 1 to 107 THz and electric fields of up to108 MV/cm. 8-fs pulses from the fiber laser serveas electro-optic probe.CMY4 • 2:30 p.m.C 2 H 2 Absolutely Optical Frequency-Stabilizedand 40 GHz Repetition-Rate-Stabilized, RegenerativelyMode-Locked Picosecond ErbiumFiber Laser at 1.53 μm, Masataka Nakazawa,Masato Yoshida, Keisuke Kasai; Res. Inst. of ElectricalCommunication, Tohoku Univ., Japan. Theoptical frequency and repetition-rate of a regenerativelymode-locked picosecond fiber laser wassimultaneously stabilized to a 1.5-μm C 2 H 2 absorptionline and a 40-GHz synthesizer, respectively.The optical frequency stability reached 2x10 -11for τ=10~100 s.IMG5 • 2:30 p.m.Broadband Heterodyne NSOM Characterizationof Propagation Loss in Waveguide Bends,Maurice Ayache, Maxim Abashin, Dawn T. H. Tan,Yeshaiahu Fainman; Dept. of Electrical and ComputerEngineering, Univ. of California at San Diego,USA. We use a heterodyne NSOM with superluminescentdiode illumination to measure the lossin an SOI waveguide around a bend. For a bend ofradius 10 μm, we measure loss of .09 dB.CMW5 • 2:45 p.m.Depolarized Guided Acoustic Wave BrillouinScattering in Photonic Crystal Fibers, John E.McElhenny, Radha K. Pattnaik, Jean Toulouse;Lehigh Univ., USA. Guided acoustic wave Brillouinscattering (GAWBS) in PCFs is altered by the airsilicastructure of the inner cladding and does notdepend on the cladding diameter as with standardfibers. This dependence is investigated.CMX3 • 2:45 p.m.CW Terahertz Spectrometer with High-PrecisionFrequency Control, Axel Roggenbuck 1 ,Anselm Deninger 1 , Iván Cámara Mayorga 2 ,Holger Schmitz 3 , Joachim Hemberger 3 , Frank Lison 1 ,Markus Grüninger 3 ; 1 TOPTICA Photonics AG,Germany, 2 Max-Planck-Inst. für Radioastronomie,Germany, 3 Physikalisches Inst., Univ. zu Köln,Germany. We realized a continuous-wave terahertzspectrometer based on optical heterodyning oftwo near-infrared distributed-feedback diodelasers. Using active frequency stabilization weachieve 1 MHz resolution and a signal-to-noiseratio up to 80 dB.CMY5 • 2:45 p.m.Low-Noise Microwave Synthesis up to 80 GHzwith Line-by-Line Processing of an OpticalFrequency Comb, Shijun Xiao, Leo Hollberg, ScottDiddams; NIST, USA. 10 GHz optical pulses aregenerated by line-by-line phase compensation onan optical frequency comb. Residual pulse timingjitter ≤ 10 fs and high power signals at harmonicsup to 80 GHz are measured.IMG6 • 2:45 p.m.Insulator-to-Metal Transition of Gold FilmsObserved by Interferometric Picometrology,Xuefeng Wang, Ming Zhao, David D. Nolte; Dept.of Physics, Purdue Univ., USA. We obtain thecomplex refractive index and dielectric propertiesof ultra-thin gold films as a continuous functionof thickness from 0.2 nm to 10 nm usingpicometrology. The atom-to-bulk transition ofgold is observed.<strong>Monday</strong>, <strong>June</strong> 1CMW6 • 3:00 p.m.Low-Loss Splicing of Photonic Crystal Fibres byControlled Hole Collapse, Zilun Chen 1 , ChunleXiong 2 , Limin Xiao 1 , William Wadsworth 1 , TimBirks 1 ; 1 Univ. of Bath, UK, 2 Univ. of Sydney, Australia.Low-loss splices have been formed betweensmall-core photonic crystal fibres and fibres withmuch larger mode field diameters. The PCF’score is enlarged using controlled hole collapsebefore splicing with a conventional electric-arcfusion splicer.CMX4 • 3:00 p.m.High-Resolution Terahertz Time-DomainSpectroscopy Using a Wavelet Power SpectrumEstimation Technique, Youngchan Kim 1 , Dae-SuYee 1 , Jong Chul Ye 2 , Jaewook Ahn 2 ; 1 Korea Res.Inst. of Standards and Science, Republic of Korea,2KAIST, Republic of Korea. It is shown that a waveletpower spectrum estimation technique can beapplied to high-resolution terahertz time-domainspectroscopy using asynchronous optical samplingto effectively remove noises without sacrificingspectral features on a spectrum.CMY6 • 3:00 p.m.Optical Frequency Comb Characterization–Self-Referenced Phase Retrieval via SpectralShearing Interferometry in an A-PPLN Waveguide,Houxun Miao 1 , Chen-Bin Huang 2 , DanielE.
