Dissertation Title: “Filament Propagation through Atmospheric Conditions” Abstract: Laser propagation over long ranges is a challenge due to turbulence, aerosols, and other environmental factors. Linear propagation through adverse, real-world environments will often lead to diffraction and distortion of the wave-front. Laser filamentation, which relies on nonlinear propagation, may offer a solution to this challenge. Ultra-short pulse lasers with a …
CREOL CalendarDissertation Title: “Machine Learning in Fiber Optics” Abstract: Recent burgeoning machine learning has revolutionized our ways of looking at the world. Being extraordinarily good at pattern recognition, machine learning has been widely applied to many fields to solve the problems that were previously considered to be extremely challenging. In this dissertation, I demonstrate the applications of machine learning in fiber …
CREOL CalendarDissertation Title: “Space-Time Photonics” Abstract: Many of the features of photonic devices, including some of the most ubiquitous components such as resonators and waveguides, are usually thought to be intrinsically dependent on their geometry and constitutive materials. As such, the behavior of an optical field interacting with such devices is dictated by the boundary conditions imposed upon the field. …
