Dark photorefractive spatial solitons and photorefractive vortex solitons.

TL;DR: The first experimental observations of dark, planar, spatial photorefractive solitons, and photore fractive vortex solitONS that are trapped in a bulk (three-dimensional) photoreFractive media are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial convolution and correlation of optical fields via degenerate four-wave mixing

TL;DR: A nonlinear optical technique is described that performs the functions of spatial correlation and convolution of spatially encoded waves by mixing spatially dependent optical fields in the Fourier-transform plane of a lens system using a degenerate four-wave mixing scheme.

Process for fabricating small geometry semiconductive devices including integrated components

TL;DR: Disclosed as discussed by the authors is a process for fabricating small geometry electronic devices, including a variety of integrated optical devices, which includes the steps of holographically exposing a resist masking layer to a plurality of optical interference patterns in order to develop a masking pattern on the surface of a semiconductive body.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modal reflectivity in finite-depth two-dimensional photonic-crystal microcavities

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present finite-difference time-domain calculations of the Q factor for an optical microcavity defined by a slab waveguide and two-dimensional photonic-crystal end mirrors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultra-large bandwidth hollow-core guiding in all-silica Bragg fibers with nano-supports

TL;DR: A new class of hollow-core Bragg fibers that are composed of concentric cylindrical silica rings separated by nanoscale support bridges are demonstrated that achieve propagation loss of the order of 1 dB/m.
