    Abstract: A visible-light communication and illumination array includes a substrate and plural surface-emitting superluminescent diodes, SLDs, distributed across the substrate. A first set of SLDs of the plural SLDs generates a first light beam having substantially a first wavelength, a second set of SLDs of the plural SLDs generates a second light beam having substantially a second wavelength, and a third set of SLDs of the plural SLDs generates a third light beam having substantially a third wavelength. The array further includes a controller configured to encode at least one of the first light beam, the second light beam and the third light beam to transmit information. A combination of the first light beam, the second light beam and the third light beam produces white light.

    Abstract: A plastic optical fiber communication system includes a light source that emits a first signal having a first wavelength in a visible light spectrum, the first signal being encoded with information at a high data-rate of 0.1 to 10 Gbit/s; a pump laser system that emits a pump laser light having a second wavelength, different from the first wavelength; a perovskite-doped optical fiber excited by the pump laser light to generate an amplified spontaneous emission spectrum that encompasses the first wavelength so as to receive and amplify the first signal for generating an amplified output signal having the first wavelength; and a photodetector optically coupled to the perovskite-doped optical fiber, and configured to receive the amplified output signal at the high data-rate of 0.1 to 10 Gbit/s. The amplified output signal is encoded with the information.

    Abstract: A tunable laser system includes a laser diode producing a light beam having a plurality of frequencies in a visible portion of a light spectrum. A collimating lens arranged in front of the laser diode produces a collimated light beam from the light beam produced by the laser diode. A partial reflector arranged in a path of the collimated laser beam reflects a first portion of the collimated light beam and passes a second portion of the collimated light beam as an output light beam. The first portion of the collimated light beam enters the laser diode and mixes with the plurality of frequencies of the light beam produced by the laser diode so that the laser diode produces a self-injection-locked light beam including at least two frequencies having a frequency difference in a terahertz frequency range. A translational stage adjusts a distance between the laser diode and the partial reflector. The laser diode or the partial reflector is mounted on the translational stage. The at least two frequencies of the self-injection-locked light beam are based on the distance between the laser diode and the partial reflector.
