• A review of materials engineering in silicon-based optical fibre 

      Healy, Noel; Gibson, Ursula; Peacock, Anna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Semiconductor optical fibre technologies have grown rapidly in the last decade and there are now a range of production and post-processing techniques that allow for a vast degree of control over the core material's ...
    • Crystalline GaSb-core optical fibers with room-temperature photoluminescence 

      Song, Seunghan; Healy, Noel; Svendsen, Silje; Österberg, Ulf; Cuervo Covian, Alejandra; Liu, Jifeng; Peacock, Anna; Ballato, John; Laurell, Fredrik; Fokine, Michael; Gibson, Ursula (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Glass-clad, GaSb-core fibers were drawn and subsequently laser annealed. The asdrawn fibers were found to be polycrystalline, possess Sb inclusions, and have oxide contamination concentrations of less than 3 at%. Melting ...
    • Laser recrystallization and inscription of compositional microstructures in crystalline SiGe-core fibres 

      Coucheron, David Andre; Fokine, Michael; Patil, Nilesh; Breiby, Dag Werner; Buset, Ole Tore; Healy, Noel; Peacock, Anna; Hawkins, Thomas A.; Jones, Maxwell; Ballato, John; Gibson, Ursula (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Glass fibres with silicon cores have emerged as a versatile platform for all-optical processing, sensing and microscale optoelectronic devices. Using SiGe in the core extends the accessible wavelength range and potential ...
    • Material properties of tapered crystalline silicon core fibers 

      Franz, Yohann; Runge, A. F.; Ren, Haonan; Healy, Noel; Ignatyev, K.; Jones, Maxwell; Hawkins, Thomas A.; Ballato, John; Gibson, Ursula; Peacock, Anna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Crystalline silicon optical fibers are emerging as a promising platform for a wide range of optoelectronic applications. Here we report a crystallographic study of the material properties within silicon fibers that have ...
    • Wavelength conversion and supercontinuum generation in silicon optical fibers 

      Peacock, Anna; Campling, Joseph; Runge, Antoine; Ren, Haonan; Shen, Li; Aktas, Ozan; Horak, Peter; Healy, Noel; Gibson, Ursula; Ballato, John (Journal article, 2018)
      This paper describes the state of the art in wavelength conversion and supercontinuum generation using glass-clad silicon core optical fibers. Such semiconductor fibers have enjoyed considerable attention due to their ...
