Advanced Tests of Fundamental Physics with State-of-the-Art Optical Clocks/Two-Way Time Links in Space

December 23, 2021
Author(s)
Chris Oates, Nathan R. Newbury, Laura Sinclair, Leo Hollberg, Andrei Derevianko, Marianna Safronova, Nan Yu, Kurt Gibble
Recent advances in optical atomic clocks and optical time transfer have enabled new possibilities in precision metrology for both tests of fundamental physics and timing applications. Space offers both the potential to vary significantly the gravitational

Fundamental Physics with a State-of-the-Art Optical Clock in Space

December 23, 2021
Author(s)
Andrei Derevianko, Kurt Gibble, Leo Hollberg, Nathan R. Newbury, Chris Oates, Laura Sinclair, Nan Yu
Recent advances in optical atomic clocks and optical time transfer have enabled new possibilities in precision metrology for both tests of fundamental physics and timing applications. Here we describe a space mission concept that would place a state-of-the

Obtaining More Energetic Modelocked Pulses From a SESAM Fiber Laser

July 6, 2020
Author(s)
Nathan R. Newbury, Laura Sinclair, Ian Coddington, Stefan Droste, Shaokang Wang, chaoran Tu, Seyed E. Jamali, Thomas Carruthers, Curtis Menyuk
Increasing the output power by increasing the pulse energy without increasing the noise level or decreasing the bandwidth is a major optimization goal for femtosecond fiber lasers that produce frequency combs. Here, we perform a computational study to

Dual-comb photoacoustic spectroscopy

June 19, 2020

Jacob T. Friedlein, Esther Baumann, Kimberly Briggman, Gabriel M. Colacion, Fabrizio R. Giorgetta, Daniel I. Herman, Nathan R. Newbury, Jeeseong Hwang, Ian R. Coddington, Kevin C. Cossel, Gabriel Ycas, Christopher Yung, Eli V. Hoenig, Edgar F. Perez, Aaron Goldfain
Spectrally-resolved photoacoustic imaging is a promising technique for label-free imaging in optically scattering materials. However, this technique often requires acquisition of a separate image at each wavelength of interest. This reduces imaging speeds

Mid-Infrared Dual Frequency Comb Spectroscopy for Combustion Analysisin the 2.8 to 5 micron Spectral Region

June 7, 2020
Author(s)
Ian Coddington, Nathan R. Newbury, Greg Rieker, Amanda S. Makowiecki, Daniel Herman, Nazanin Hoghooghi, Elizabeth F. Strong, Gabriel Ycas, Fabrizio Giorgetta, Ryan Cole, Caelan Lapointe, Jeff Glusman, John Daily, Peter E. Hamlington
We demonstrate the application of mode-locked mid-infrared dual frequency comb spectroscopy for combustion analysis. With two settings of the same dual-comb system, the measurement spans 1500 cm-1 (2.8 to 5 microns) with 0.0067 cm-1 (200 MHz) point spacing

The proposed mission \Space Atomic Gravity Explorer (SAGE) has the scientifi c objective to investigate gravitational waves, dark matter, and other fundamental aspects of gravity as well as the connection between gravitational physics and quantum physics

Multi-functional integrated photonics in the mid-infrared with suspended AlGaAs on silicon

September 18, 2019

Jeff Chiles, Nima Nader, Eric J. Stanton, Daniel Herman, Galan Moody, Biswarup Guha, Kartik Srinivasan, Scott Diddams, Ian Coddington, Nathan R. Newbury, Jeff Shainline, Sae Woo Nam, Richard Mirin, Jiangang Zhu, Juliet Gopinath, Connor Fredrick
The microscale integration of mid- and longwave-infrared photonics could enable the development of fieldable and reliable chemical sensors. The choice of material platform immediately determines the strength and types of optical nonlinearities available

Femtosecond Time Synchronization of Optical Clocks Off a Flying Quadcopter

April 18, 2019

Hugo Bergeron, Laura C. Sinclair, William C. Swann, Isaac H. Khader, Kevin C. Cossel, Michael A. Cermak, Jean-Daniel Deschenes, Nathan R. Newbury
Optical clock networks promise advances in global navigation, time distribution, coherent sensing, relativity experiments, dark matter searches and other areas1-12. Such networks will need to compare and synchronize clocks over free-space optical links

Dual comb spectroscopy with tailored spectral broadening in nanophotonic Si3N4

April 15, 2019
