OAM modes characteristics analysis and low-loss transmission based on topological confinement

The topological confinement is a new mechanism that allows the transmission of cutoff orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes with negligible loss in ring-core fibers (RCFs) and provides a natural immunity against mode coupling. We investigate the influence of fiber design parameters and wavelength on the characteristics of topologically confined modes (TCMs) in step index ring-core fibers (SI-RCFs), and propose a type of graded index ring-core fibers (GI-RCF) with better characteristics. Furthermore, as TCMs occurs in structures with high refractive index difference and are often accompanied by relatively high scattering loss, we fabricate a type of low-loss SI-RCF and observe the stable existence of 24 low-loss TCMs in total. Subsequently, we use an analytical model to estimate the maximum signal-to-noise (SNR) and spectral efficiency (SE) of the fiber, demonstrating its strong capacity advantages.

Robust and Hyper-Efficient Multi-dimensional Optical Fiber Semantic Communication

The growing demands of artificial intelligence and immersive media require communication beyond bit-level accuracy to meaning awareness. Conventional optical systems that focused on syntactic precision suffer significant inefficiencies. Here, we introduce a multi-dimensional semantic communication framework that bridges this gap by directly mapping high-level semantic features onto the orthogonal physical dimensions of light, frequency, polarization, and intensity, within a multimode fiber. This synergistic co-design of semantic logic and the photonic channel achieve an unprecedented equivalent spectral efficiency approaching 1000 bit/s/Hz. Moreover, it demonstrates profound resilience, maintaining high-fidelity reconstruction even when the physical-layer symbol error rate exceeds 36%, a condition under which conventional communication systems fail completely. Crucially, this deeply integrated co-design of semantic encoding and physical-layer modulation enables full semantic demodulation with only single-ended intensity detection, therefore significantly reducing system complexity and cost. This work establishes a validated pathway toward hyper-efficient, error-resilient optical networks for the next generation of data-intensive computing.

Highly efficient wideband and polarization-insensitive SMF-ARF coupling strategy with low back-reflection

We propose a lensed-fiber based coupling strategy for low-loss interconnection between single-mode fibers and anti-resonant fibers. By optimizing structural and geometric parameters, the design simultaneously achieves high coupling efficiency and suppressed back-reflection. Experimental results demonstrate an insertion loss of 1.2 dB and back-reflection of -36.22 dB at 1550 nm, with excellent spectral stability (below 0.72 dB variation across 1500-1600 nm) and polarization insensitivity (below 0.4 dB polarization dependent loss). The compact structure not only facilitates the fabrication process, but also enables seamless ARF integration into existing optical networks, thereby addressing critical demands for high-capacity data transmission.
