Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
Fiber lasers operating either in the CW or PULSED mode are established as robust and reliable devices. They have wide applications in industry and medicine because of their unique characteristics such as an all-fiber design, compact size, cost-effective production and operation, and lack of need for re-alignment and external cooling. A fiber laser emitting single-longitudinal-mode,...

A gas sensor based on optical fiber technology is in demand for applications in environmental monitoring. Authors will present an acetylene (C2H2) gas sensor which was developed using the principle of intracavity laser absorption spectroscopy operating at room temperature. An intracavity gas cell based on hollow core photonic crystal fiber was developed and used inside a fiber ring laser...

Classical optical lenses shape the light beam based on gradual phase shifts accumulated during the propagation. This results in devices which are difficult to integrate. In recent years, plasmonic metasurfaces opened the field of flat optics. Abrupt changes in the properties of the light, such as phase and polarization, can be introduced at the sub-wavelength scale by the meta-atoms. These...

The confinement of the light at the nano-scale and the intense fields due to plasmonics, allow us to enormously increase the local density of states of molecule and nano-objects close to the hot-spots. This can be exploited to enhance nonlinear optical processes, such as surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), second harmonic generation (SHG), sum and difference frequency generation (SFG and...
