Microresonators offer a simpler approach to sensing with light pulses

04.11.18

Researchers at EPFL have found a way to implement an optical sensing system by using spatial multiplexing, a technique originally developed in optical-fiber communication. The method, which produces three independent streams of ultrashor

Power-efficient generation of ultrashort pulses on a chip

04.11.18

Using silicon nitride microphotonic chips, EPFL scientists are now able to generate coherent ultrashort pulses with less than 10 milliwatt optical power, paving the way for compact and portable chip-based photonic devices for timing, met
