We introduce a system capable of focusing light through a multimode fiber in 37ms, one order of magnitude faster than demonstrated in previous reports. As a result, the focus spot can be maintained during significant bending of the fiber, opening numerous opportunities for endoscopic imaging and energy delivery applications. We measure the transmission matrix of the fiber by projecting binary-amplitude computer generated holograms using a digital micromirror device and a field programmable gate array controller. The system shows two orders of magnitude enhancements of the focus spot relative to the background.

The large number of spatial modes supported by standard multimode fibers is a promising platform for boosting the channel capacity of quantum and classical communications by orders of magnitude. However, the practical use of long multimode fibers is severely hampered by modal crosstalk and polarization mixing. To overcome these challenges, we develop and experimentally demonstrate a vectorial time reversal technique, which is accomplished by digitally pre-shaping the wavefront and polarization of the forward-propagating signal beam to be the phase conjugate of an auxiliary, backward-propagating probe beam. Here, we report an average modal fidelity above 80% for 210 Laguerre-Gauss and Hermite-Gauss modes by using vectorial time reversal over an unstabilized 1-km-long fiber. We also propose a practical and scalable spatial-mode-multiplexed quantum communication protocol over long multimode fibers to illustrate potential applications that can be enabled by our technique.

Time-of-flight (ToF) 3D imaging has a wealth of applications, from industrial inspection to movement tracking and gesture recognition. Depth information is recovered by measuring the round-trip flight time of laser pulses, which usually requires proj ection and collection optics with diameters of several centimetres. In this work we shrink this requirement by two orders of magnitude, and demonstrate near video-rate 3D imaging through multimode optical fibres (MMFs) - the width of a strand of human hair. Unlike conventional imaging systems, MMFs exhibit exceptionally complex light transport resembling that of a highly scattering medium. To overcome this complication, we implement high-speed aberration correction using wavefront shaping synchronised with a pulsed laser source, enabling random-access scanning of the scene at a rate of $sim$23,000 points per second. Using non-ballistic light we image moving objects several metres beyond the end of a $sim$40 cm long MMF of 50$mu$m core diameter, with millimetric depth resolution, at frame-rates of $sim$5Hz. Our work extends far-field depth resolving capabilities to ultra-thin micro-endoscopes, and will have a broad range of applications to clinical and remote inspection scenarios.
An ultrafast single-pixel optical 2D imaging system using a single multimode fiber (MF) is proposed. The MF acted as the all-optical random pattern generator. Light with different wavelengths pass through a single MF will generator all-optical random speckle patterns, which have a low correlation of 0.074 with 0.1nm wavelength step from 1518.0nm to 1567.9nm. The all-optical random speckle patterns are perfect for compressive sensing (CS) imaging with the advantage of low cost in comparison with the conventional expensive pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS). Besides, with the employment of photonic time stretch (PTS), light of different wavelengths will go through a single capsuled MF in time serial within a short pulse time, which makes ultrafast single-pixel all-optical CS imaging possible. In our work, the all-optical random speckle patterns are analyzed and used to perform CS imaging in our proposed system and the results shows a single-pixel photo-detector can be employed in CS imaging system and a 27 by 27 pixels image is reconstructed within 500 measurements. In our proposed imaging system, the fast Fourier transform (FFT) spatial resolution, which is a combination of multiple Gaussians, is analyzed. Considering 4 optical speckle patterns, the FFT spatial resolution is 50 by 50 pixels. This resolution limit has been obtained by removing the central low frequency components and observing the significant spectral power along all the radial directions.
Dissipative solitons are remarkable localized states of a physical system that arise from the dynamical balance between nonlinearity, dispersion and environmental energy exchange. They are the most universal form of soliton that can exist in nature, and are seen in far-from-equilibrium systems in many fields including chemistry, biology, and physics. There has been particular interest in studying their properties in mode-locked lasers producing ultrashort light pulses, but experiments have been limited by the lack of convenient measurement techniques able to track the soliton evolution in real-time. Here, we use dispersive Fourier transform and time lens measurements to simultaneously measure real-time spectral and temporal evolution of dissipative solitons in a fiber laser as the turn-on dynamics pass through a transient unstable regime with complex break-up and collision dynamics before stabilizing to a regular mode-locked pulse train. Our measurements enable reconstruction of the soliton amplitude and phase and calculation of the corresponding complex-valued eigenvalue spectrum to provide further physical insight. These findings are significant in showing how real-time measurements can provide new perspectives into the ultrafast transient dynamics of complex systems.
Solitons are non-dispersing localized waves that occur in diverse physical settings. A variety of optical solitons have been observed, b
