Today, wide-open, high-resolution Doppler frequency shift (DFS) estimation is essential for radar, microwave/millimeter-wave, and communication systems. Using photonics technology, an effective approach is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, providing a high-resolution and frequency-independent solution. In the approach consisting of two cascaded opto-electronic modulators, DFS between the transmitted microwave/ millimeter-wave signal and the received echo signal is mapped into a doubled spacing between two target optical sidebands. Subsequently, the DFS is then estimated through the spectrum analysis of a generated low-frequency electrical signal, with an improved resolution by a factor of 2. In experiments, DFSs from -90 to 90 KHz are successfully estimated for microwave/millimeter-wave signals at 10, 15, and 30 GHz, where estimation errors keep lower than +/- 5e-10 Hz. For radial velocity measurement, these results reveal a range from 0 to 900 m/s (0 to 450 m/s) and a resolution of 1e-11 m/s (5e-12 m/s) at 15-GHz (30-GHz) frequency band.

We report the first demonstration of a long-distance ultra stable frequency dissemination in the microwave range. A 9.15 GHz signal is transferred through a 86-km urban optical link with a fractional frequency stability of 1.3x10-15 at 1 s integratio
n time and below 10-18 at one day. The optical link phase noise compensation is performed with a round-trip method. To achieve such a result we implement light polarisation scrambling and dispersion compensation. This link outperforms all the previous radiofrequency links and compares well with recently demonstrated full optical links.
In chiral sum frequency generation (C-SFG), the chiral nature of ${chi}^{(2)}$ requires the three involved electric fields to be pairwise non-parallel, leading to the traditional non-collinear configuration which is a hindrance for achieving diffract
ion limited resolution while utilizing it as a label-free imaging contrast mechanism . Here we propose a collinear C-SFG (CC-SFG) microscopy modality by using longitudinal z-polarized vectorial field. Label-free chiral imaging with enhanced spatial resolution (~1.4 times improvement in one lateral and the longitudinal directions over the traditional non-collinear scheme) is demonstrated, providing a new path for SFG microscopy with diffraction-limited resolution for mapping chirality.
Developing a chip-based super-resolution imaging technique with large field-of-view (FOV), deep subwavelength resolution, and compatibility for both fluorescent and non-fluorescent samples is desired for material science, biomedicine, and life resear
ches, etc. Previous on-chip super-resolution methods focus on either fluorescent or non-fluorescent imaging, putting an urgent requirement on the general imaging technique compatible with both of them. Here, we introduce a universal super-resolution imaging method based on tunable virtual-wavevector spatial frequency shift (TVSFS), realizing both labeled and label-free super-resolution imaging on a single delicately fabricated scalable photonic chip. Theoretically, with TVSFS, the diffraction limit of a linear optical system can be overcome, and the resolution can be improved more than three times, which is the limitation for most super-resolution imaging based on spatial frequency engineering. Diffractive units were fabricated on the chips surface to provide a wavevector-variable evanescent wave illumination and induce tunable deep SFS in the samples Fourier space. A resolution of {lambda}/4.7 for the label-free sample and {lambda}/7.1 for the labeled sample with a large FOV could be achieved with a CMOS-compatible process on a GaP chip. The large FOV, high-compatibility, and high-integration TVSFS chip may advance the fields like cell engineering, precision inspection in the industry, chemical research, etc.
Linear super-resolution microscopy via synthesis aperture approach permits fast acquisition because of its wide-field implementations, however, it has been limited in resolution because a missing spatial-frequency band occurs when trying to use a shi
ft magnitude surpassing the cutoff frequency of the detection system beyond a factor of two, which causes ghosting to appear. Here, we propose a method of chip-based 3D nanoscopy through large and tunable spatial-frequency-shift effect, capable of covering full extent of the spatial-frequency component within a wide passband. The missing of spatial-frequency can be effectively solved by developing a spatial-frequency-shift actively tuning approach through wave vector manipulation and operation of optical modes propagating along multiple azimuthal directions on a waveguide chip to interfere. In addition, the method includes a chip-based sectioning capability, which is enabled by saturated absorption of fluorophores. By introducing ultra-large propagation effective refractive index, nanoscale resolution is possible, without sacrificing the temporal resolution and the field-of-view. Imaging on GaP waveguide material demonstrates a lateral resolution of lamda/10, which is 5.4 folds above Abbe diffraction limit, and an axial resolution of lamda/19 using 0.9 NA detection objective. Simulation with an assumed propagation effective refractive index of 10 demonstrates a lateral resolution of lamda/22, in which the huge gap between the directly shifted and the zero-order components is completely filled to ensure the deep-subwavelength resolvability. It means that, a fast wide-field 3D deep-subdiffraction visualization could be realized using a standard microscope by adding a mass-producible and cost-effective spatial-frequency-shift illumination chip.
A simplified Doppler frequency shift measurement approach based on Serrodyne optical frequency translation is reported. A sawtooth wave with an appropriate amplitude is sent to one phase modulation arm of a Mach-Zehnder modulator in conjunction with
the transmitted signal to implement the Serrodyne optical frequency transition, as well as the optical phase modulation of the transmitted signal on the frequency-shifted optical carrier. The echo signal is applied to the other phase modulation arm of the Mach-Zehnder modulator. The optical signals from the two arms are combined in the Mach-Zehnder modulator, whose lower optical sidebands are selected by an optical bandpass filter and then detected in a photodetector. By simply measuring the frequency of the output low-frequency signal, the value and direction of DFS can be determined simultaneously. An experiment is performed. DFS from -100 to 100 kHz is measured for microwave signals from 6 to 17 GHz with a measurement error of less than 0.03 Hz and a measurement stability of 0.015 Hz in 30 minutes when a 500-kHz sawtooth wave is used as the reference.
