Capacity Limits of Optical Fiber Networks
TL;DR: In this article, the capacity limit of fiber-optic communication systems (or fiber channels?) is estimated based on information theory and the relationship between the commonly used signal to noise ratio and the optical signal-to-noise ratio is discussed.

Fiber in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer fabricated by femtosecond laser micromachining for refractive index measurement with high sensitivity
TL;DR: In this paper, a fiber in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a microcavity formed by removing part of the fiber core near the core and cladding interface by femtosecond laser micromachining is presented.

Real-time full-field arbitrary optical waveform measurement
TL;DR: A measurement scheme capable of recording the amplitude and phase of arbitrary shaped optical waveforms with a bandwidth of up to 160 GHz is presented that is compatible with integration on a silicon photonic chip and could aid the study of transient ultrafast phenomena.
