We explore the use of a highly nonlinear chalcogenide-silica waveguide for supercontinuum generation in near infrared. The structure was fabricated by pressure-assisted melt-filling silica capillary fiber (1.6 µm bore diameter) with Ga4Ge21Sb10S65 glass. It designed to have zero group velocity dispersion (for HE11 core mode) at 1550 nm. Pumping 1 cm length 60 fs pulses from an erbium-doped laser results octave-spanning light pulse energies only pJ. Good agreement is obtained between...
We report a hybrid chalcogenide-silica photonic crystal fiber made by pressure-assisted melt-filling of molten glass. Photonic bandgap guidance is obtained at silica core placed centrally in hexagonal array continuous centimeters-long chalcogenide strands with diameters 1.45 μm. In the passbands cladding, when transmission through very weak, light up distinct modal patterns corresponding to Mie resonances. spectral regions between these passbands, strong observed, where loss 60 dB/cm lower....

High optical and electric contrast between the SET (crystalline) RESET (amorphous) logic states is related to different short intermediate range order in orthorhombic vitreous Sb 2 S 3 .
Vitreous germanium disulfide GeS2 and diselenide GeSe2 belong to canonical chalcogenide glasses extensively studied over the past half century. Their high-temperature orthorhombic polymorphs are congruently melting compounds, tetrahedral crystal glass structure is largely preserved in melt. In contrast, ditelluride counterpart absent Ge–Te phase diagram, which shows only a single compound, monotelluride GeTe. Phase-change materials based on GeTe have become technologically important class of...
Oxidative recycling of metals is crucial for a circular economy, encompassing the preservation natural resources, reduction energy consumption, and mitigation environmental impacts greenhouse gas emissions associated with traditional mining processing. Low-melting gallium trichloride appears to be promising oxidative solvent rare-earth metals, transuranium elements, platinum, pnictogens, chalcogens. Typically, dissolution GaCl3 occurs at relatively low temperatures over few days, assuming...
Binary Ge–Te and ternary Ge–Sb–Te systems belong to flagship phase-change materials (PCMs) are used in nonvolatile memory applications neuromorphic computing.

An unusually rigid glassy GaS film obtained by PLD shows an excellent light-induced damage threshold promising for memory applications.
We proposed a new concept of increasing the plasticity chalcogenide glasses while maintaining high glass transition temperature. The main idea this lies in formation Ag–Ag metallophilic interactions when silver is introduced into composition. This suggestion was confirmed by experimental study based on Ag2Se–Sb2Se3–GeSe2 system. It observed that introduction 40 mole percent Ag2Se composition leads to increase its 3.5 times, whereas temperature such remains higher than 200 °C. most typical...

Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals are widely used in advanced photonic technologies for second harmonic and difference frequency generation (SHG DFG, respectively), producing coherent light at frequencies where existing lasers unavailable. Isotropic glasses do not exhibit SHG or except temporarily induced anisotropy under external stimuli. However, recent reports on with chiral structural motifs show promising permanent NLO properties. We propose an alternative solution: hybrid...
