Panda type few-mode fiber capable of both mode profile and polarization maintenance
摘要: We report the design, fabrication and characterization of panda type few-mode fiber (panda-FMF) capable of both mode profile and polarization maintenance, due to the use of two applied stress rods into the conventional FMF. The panda-FMF can support six spatial modes including LP01, LP11a, LP11b, LP21a, LP21b and LP02, and each possesses two orthogonal linear polarization modes. According to the characterization results of panda-FMF, we theoretically identify that the effective refractive index (RI) difference between either two spatial or orthogonal linear polarization modes is more than 1×10-4 over the C-band. Moreover, the experimental results verify that, both mode profile and polarization of high-order radially asymmetric modes can be perfectly maintained even under severe twist rate of 1.57 rad/m.

[IEEE 2018 20th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON) - Bucharest (2018.7.1-2018.7.5)] 2018 20th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON) - Hollow Core Antiresonant Fibers: Novel Designs, Materials and Applications
摘要: The development of hollow core optical fibers (HCs) based on the antiresonant optical principle is gaining a significant interest within the optical fiber research community due, among others, to their broadband transmission, mid-infrared and ultra-violet operation, as well as their unique ability to handle high optical power. In this work, we offer an update on our recent activities related to the introduction of novel HCs designs, the fabrication of HCs based on composite materials and, in particular, to the development of novel HCs for mid- infrared transmission. These novel forms of optical fibers may unable a range of novel, still unexplored applications.

Design of quad core photonic crystal fibers with flattened zero dispersion
摘要: Two photonic crystal fiber structures with quad-core have been investigated in this paper. Both the structures are geometrically similar but have different background materials. Both PCF structures exhibit very high birefringence. However, structure with silica background material reports birefringence of the order 10-2. It is to be noted that, this PCF structure has also shown zero dispersion behavior over a wide range of telecommunication wavelength. Moreover, the other structure with lead silicate as background material has also reported very low dispersion. Thus both the PCF structures simulated show ability to mitigate the effect of polarized mode dispersion. Besides this, other propagation characteristics like confinement loss, normalized frequency and non linear coefficient have been reported.

Scintillation Detectors in Modern High Energy Physics Experiments and Prospect of Their use in Future Experiments
摘要: The scintillation detector (SD) based on organic plastic scintillator (OPS) is one of the basic detectors in HEP experiments. Technologies for production of OPSs as strips and tiles, their optical and physical properties, light collection based on wavelength shifting (WLS) fibers coupled to multipixel vacuum and silicon PMs are presented. SDs are multifunctional: calorimeters, triggers, tracking, time-of-flight and veto systems are the examples of their applications. The use of SDs in many HEP experiments on the search for quarks, new particles and H bosons (D0, ATLAS, CMS), quark-gluon plasma (ALICE), CP violation (LHCb, KLOE), ν-oscillation (MINOS, OPERA), cosmic particles (AMS-02) are discussed. SDs hold great promise for future HEP experiments due to their ability of high segmentation, WLS fiber light collection and multipixel silicon PM readout.

Mid-infrared supercontinuum generation with high spectral flatness in dispersion flattened tellurite all-solid hybrid microstructured optical fibers
摘要: Tellurite all-solid hybrid microstructured optical fibers are proposed for chromatic dispersion control. An ultra-flattened chromatic dispersion profile with variation as small as ± 0.2 ps/km/nm over the wavelength range from 2.5 to 3.7 μm can be obtained. The fibers with flattened chromatic dispersion profiles have high potential for broadband mid-infrared supercontinuum generation. Fabrication of the fiber is successfully performed and by pumping the fabricated fiber at 2 μm, a broad and highly coherent supercontinuum with high spectral flatness is generated.

[IEEE 2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC) - Munich, Germany (2019.6.23-2019.6.27)] 2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC) - Fabrication and Characterization of New Phosphate Glasses and Glass-Ceramics Suitable for Drawing Optical and Biophotonic Libers
摘要: Rare earth doped phosphate glasses are attractive materials for the engineering of photonic devices, due to their easy processing, good thermal stability, excellent optical properties and high rare-earth ions solubility [1]. Besides, phosphate glasses with a P2O5 content of 50 mol% have been shown to be suitable for fiber drawing. It is well known that if the rare-earth ions are located in crystalline phase of desired nature and structure, the spectroscopic properties of the glasses can be enhanced [2]. Therefore, efforts have been focused on the development of new glass-ceramics (GCS) obtained from the heat treatment of glasses, as these engineered materials possess some of the glass properties (large flexibility of composition and geometry) but also some advantages of the RE-doped single crystals (high absorption and emission as well as long lifetimes). In this presentation, we will first discuss how new active phosphate glasses can be prepared with a bioactivity functionality and their composition tailored to enhance their spectroscopic properties. We will show that the heat treatment does not necessarily lead to the bulk precipitation of rare-earth doped crystals (see figure 1). Therefore, we will present a new route to prepare rare-earth doped crystals containing glasses using the direct doping method (schematic presented in Figure 2). We will review the main challenge with this novel route of preparing glasses, related to the survival and dispersion of the particles in the glasses. Finally, we will demonstrate that some of the promising glasses can be drawn into optical fibers with broad luminescence over 70 nm of bandwidth and also into biophotonic fiber in the prospect of developing an innovative biosensor.

nano structured films induced by laser plasma ionization deposition
摘要: This research explores the optical properties of a large group of silicon/silica nanofibrous thin films. A picosecond pulse laser was employed for indirect deposition of ablated silicon on glass substrates. Prominent parameters such as laser power, repetition rate, pulse duration and scanning speed were changed to vary the structural and compositional properties of synthesized nanofibrous thin films. Transmission and specular reflection measurements along with material characterization techniques, Raman and FTIR, were employed for better interpretation of the results. By and large, an increase in the values for repetition rate and scanning speed produced a corresponding increase in optical data intensity, while an increase in power and pulse duration produced a drop in the same data. The results show that degree of oxidation and inherent porous structure are driving the light interaction in thin samples, as indicated by the changes in intensity or spectrum shape. Observation of these trends enabled us to apply tunable fabrication procedures to obtain desired groups of nanofibrous thin films. Electron and optical microscopy as well as background knowledge certify tangled nano-wired morphology in most cases. Structures with highly desirable usages, such as in sensing technology, can be optimized by their porosity, density and thickness.

Dye-doped electrospun fibers for use as random laser generator: The influence of spot size and scatter concentration
摘要: The development of electrospun polymer fiber networks embedded with metal oxide nanoparticles in organic dye media favors the photons waveguiding and multiple scattering, providing the adequate environment for random laser action. The use of water-soluble polymer solution as support for electrospun matrix introduces relevant application in biomedical applications. Herein, it is explored the use of block copolymers (Eudragit L100) as support for electrospinning of polymer fiber doped with titanium dioxide (scatter centers) and rhodamine B (gain media). The resulting fiber net presented random laser behavior that depends on aggregation degree of gain media (rhodamine B) due to the combination of reabsorption/reemission processes with tunable response (emission peak position). These results open new possibilities for use of low-cost and water soluble electrospun-based random lasers based on organic dyes and random network of polymer matrix.

Integration of chiral cellulose nanocrystal films in silica optical fibers
摘要: Cellulose nanocrystals have attracted great attention as new “wonder” materials for photonic applications owing to their unique property of spontaneous self-assembly to form chiral nematic films. Here, the incorporation of chiral cellulose nanocrystal films on a photonic waveguide is demonstrated for the first time – in the form of integrated silica optical fibers with a helicoid nanocrystal film on their input facet. In order to achieve repeatable cholesteric ordering across the fiber core modal area, a fabrication method was developed where several optical fiber facets form part of a larger flat surface, which acts as the substrate for the planar anchoring of the cellulose nanocrystals. The resultant optical fibers exhibit significant circular dichroism (almost 40%) in transmission and act as all-fiber spectral filters. The proposed fabrication technique provides a simple, low-cost method for developing chiral silica optical fibers that remain compatible with standard telecommunication fiber technology. It is envisioned that the incorporation of cellulose nanocrystals in other optical fiber types will enable the development of a new class of fiber devices.

Eye safe emission in Tm3+/Ho3+ and Yb3+/Tm3+ co-doped optical fibers fabricated using MCVD-CDS system
摘要: The RE-co-doped silica optical fibers emitting in the eye-safe spectral range are still attractive for new applications like LIDAR, pollution monitoring, navigation, and free-space optical communication. High gain and beam quality of fiber sources based on large mode area (LMA) active fibers can be fabricated by the well-known Modified Chemical Vapor Deposition (MCVD) technology improved by the chelate doping system. Considering silica matrix, the most interesting co-dopants in the region above 1400 nm are thulium and holmium. In the paper Tm3t/Ho3t and Yb3t/Tm3t co-doped silica optical fibers (refractive index and rare earth distribution profile, luminescence) are presented. Their respective emission spectra has been measured over the range 1550–2150 nm for Tm3t/Ho3t (exc. at 796 nm) and 1600–2100 nm for Yb3t/Tm3t (exc. at 976 nm). A wide luminescent spectrum has been recorded from RE co-doping of silica glass during the MCVD process and we were able to achieve the appropriate and uniform concentration for getting the conditions of energy transfer. The fabrication and characterization of Tm3t/Ho3t and Yb3t/Tm3t co-doped optical fibres are presented. The analysis of luminescence spectrum changes vs. fibre length has shown that there is Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) at 1960 nm in Yb3t/Tm3t co-doped optical fibre. The possibilities of obtaining novel constructions of RE co-doped optical fibers for eye-safe emission region will be also shown.
