摘要： We report in detail the design process and performance of an auto-locking ultra-stable laser with sub-hertz linewidth at the first time. The laser frequency is automatically stabilized to an optical reference cavity with a home-made controller, which is based on a combination of digital circuit and analog circuit. The digital circuit is used for diagnosing and manipulating the state of the ultra-stable laser, and the analog circuit is used for demodulating the discriminate signal and servo control. A method of searching the transmission signal in the closed-loop state instead of the open-loop state is proposed to reduce the locking time and improve the reliable of the auto-locking ultra-stable laser. The median time of 16.6s is obtained after 157 times of relocking, and the probability of less than 20 s is more than 86%. The median linewidth of 1.08 Hz is obtained, and the fractional frequency instability is less than 3.4E-15 at integration time between 0.1 and 100 s. The performance of this system demonstrates that will be used as an important subsystem to transfer the optical clock signal.

摘要： Maxwell fisheye lens was proposed to pinpoint super-resolution with the addition of wave drain and the interaction of multiple drains is theoretically predicted to improve subwavelength resolution further. In this paper we discuss the role played by port drains in optical absolute instruments, and verify by full-wave simulation that coupling nature for wave source and drain applies correctly in the picture of scanning imaging for absolute instrument. This work prospects for scanning near fields shaped from far-field wave propagation.

摘要： Ultra-high-Q resonators are fundamentally important to optics and microwave photonics. Up to now, it is still very challenging to boost the Q factor while maintaining a compact size for a resonator. Herein, we proposed and demonstrated an ultra-high-Q silicon-nitride (Si3N4) racetrack resonator with uniform multi-mode Si3N4 photonic waveguides. It consists of two multi-mode straight waveguides connected by two multi-mode waveguide bends (MWBs). In particular, the MWBs are based on modified Euler curves, and a multi-mode straight waveguide directional coupler is used for the fundamental mode coupling and avoid exciting higher-order modes in the racetrack. In this way, the fundamental mode is excited and propagates in the multi-mode racetrack resonator with ultra-low loss. Meanwhile, it helps to achieve a compact 180{\deg} bend to reduce the chip footprint. In this paper, the propagation loss of the fundamental mode is significantly reduced with standard fabrication process by broadening the waveguides width to as wide as 3{\mu}m. Results show that an ultra-high-Q resonator with an intrinsic Q of TE mode is 4.57*10^7, and the corresponding propagation loss of the waveguide is only 1.80 dB/m. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest Q value of the ring resonator with only 2.226 mm ring length reported so far. The proposed ultra-high-Q Si3N4 resonator can be used to microwave photonic filters and optoelectronic oscillators with large operation bandwidth.
