A scheme for measuring the intra-cavity round-trip loss of an all-solid-state single-frequency laser by inserting a type-I noncritical phase-matching nonlinear crystal introducing nonlinear loss into the resonator is presented. The intra-cavity round-trip
We demonstrate a new four-core fiber optic tweezers by polishing the end face of a four-core fiber into a truncated pyramid that is asymmetric to fiber cores. Optical intensity propagation and distribution are modeled numerically, and rotation function is
We demonstrate the full vectorial feature of second-harmonic generation (SHG), i.e., from infrared full Poincaré beams to visible full Poincaré beams, based on two cascading type I phase-matching beta barium borate crystals of orthogonal optical axes. We
