TL;DR: It is found that while modulation on the real part of the eigenvalue induces pulse timing drift and leads to neighboring pulse interactions and nonlinear inter-symbol interference (ISI), it is more bandwidth efficient than modulation in practical settings.

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel high-speed fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogator using dispersion-compensating fibre is proposed and demonstrated, and the wavelength shift measurement of the FBG sensor is converted to time-domain measurement.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an ultrabroadband octave-spanning supercontinuum (SC) generation using a suspended germanium-membrane ridge waveguide.

TL;DR: In this paper, a miniature fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometric pressure sensor based on an in situ printed fiber-top air cavity is presented, where a suspended SU-8 diaphragm with light scatter is directly printed on the end face of standard optical fiber to form a sealed Fabry perot cavity.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 253 cm-long lanthanum-codoped Bi/sub 2/O/sub 3/-based erbium-doped fiber which provides gain of greater than 20 dB and noise figure less than 6.7 dB to 142 dense wavelength-division-multiplexing channels simultaneously over an extended wavelength range of 58 nm from 1554 to 1612 nm is reported.
