Nonlinear optics has long relied on high-power lasers, whose spatial and temporal coherence ensures efficient nonlinear frequency conversion. However, a new study challenges the traditional assumption ...

This figure presents the results of distributed strain sensing over an approximately 100-m-long optical fiber utilizing BOCDR with periodic pseudo-random modulation. The top diagram illustrates the ...

In a recent article published in the journal Light: Science & Applications, researchers explored a fundamental but often overlooked area of optical science: how spatial coherence can be controlled and ...
