Sensing of airborne molecular contaminants based on microfiber coupler with mesoporous silica coating
摘要： Airborne molecular contaminants (AMCs) are critical issues for the performance of optics in high power lasers (HPLs). In this work we demonstrate an AMCs sensor based on an optical microfiber coupler (OMC) with mesoporous silica coating experimentally. AMCs adhered on the mesoporous silica coating modifies the surrounding refractive index (RI). Using Beam Propagation Method (BPM), the proposed structure was analyzed to demonstrate the feasibility of AMCs sensing. By coating a mesoporous silica layer on the surface of sensing area, the proposed structure was able to operate as an AMCs sensor. By monitoring the spectral shift in the wavelength domain, the sensor was shown to be capable of detecting concentration of AMCs. The experimental results show that the sensitivity of the sensor is concentration-dependent. The maximum sensitivity of 0.541nm/(mg/m3) is achieved. The detected signal is found to be proportional to AMCs present.

Characteristic Test Analysis of Graphene Plus Optical Microfiber Coupler Combined Device and Its Application in Fiber Lasers
摘要： In this study, a graphene and optical microfiber coupler (OMC) integrated device (GOMC) was proposed and fabricated. After its characteristic analysis and testing, it was applied to the development of adjustable multi-wavelength fiber lasers. By integrating the OMC with graphene, the polarization dependence of OMC was enhanced. Meanwhile, the novel GOMC was given the capabilities of filtering, coupling, beam splitting, and polarization correlation. When the GOMC was integrated as a filter and beam splitter into the ring cavity of the fiber laser, the proposed GOMC-based fiber laser could achieve single-wavelength and multi-wavelength regulated output. The laser had a 3 dB linewidth of less than 30 pm, a signal-to-noise ratio of approximately 40 dB, and an output power fluctuation of less than 1 dB. The GOMC could also be used for the development of functional devices, such as adjustable mode lockers and mode coupling selectors, which provide an excellent experimental platform for new fiber lasers and the research of multi-dimensional light-field manipulation.
