Helical Long-Period Gratings Inscribed in Polarization-Maintaining Fibers by CO2-Laser
摘要： We demonstrate fabrication of helical long-period gratings (HLPGs) in a polarization-maintaining fiber using CO2-laser. The maximum polarization dependent loss (PDL) of the grating was measured to be more than 30 dB at the resonance wavelength. The HLPG was found to have a high index sensitivity of -7248.6 nm/RIU when the surrounding refractive index changes in the range of 1.4470-1.4600, temperature sensitivity of 158.8 pm/°C, and strain sensitivity of 3.17 pm/με. The twist sensitivities based on intensity variation were measured to be 5.98 dB/ (rad/m) (co-directional twist) and -5.97 dB/ (rad/m) (contra-directional twist), respectively. The demonstrated grating devices have promising applications as high-sensitivity fiber sensors, PDL compensator etc.

High-efficiency, high-gain, all-fibered double-pass configuration for low-duty-cycle temporally shaped nanosecond pulse amplification
摘要： A high-gain fiber amplifier at 1053 nm with a double-pass configuration is proposed. Compared to the Faraday-based double-pass structures, the pump efficiency is almost doubled, and the optical signal-to-noise ratio is improved as well. The effects of fiber length and the insertion loss of elements between two passes on the efficiency are studied experimentally, which is meaningful for the optimization of double-pass amplifiers. Using the fibered polarized beam splitters allow for the orthogonal propagation of forward and the backward signals on the same polarization-maintaining fiber, the polarization mode dispersion in the amplifier is hence totally avoided. With this structure, over 50-dB gain is obtained at pump power of 800 mW for a 1053-nm, 1-Hz nanosecond pulse.
