Design of 3D force perception system of surgical robots based on Fiber Bragg Grating

Large-aperture chirped volume Bragg grating based fiber CPA system.

A fiber chirped pulse amplification system at 1558 nm was demonstrated using a large-aperture volume Bragg grating stretcher and compressor made of Photo-Thermal-Refractive (PTR) glass. Such PTR glass based gratings represent a new type of pulse stretching and compressing devices which are compact, monolithic and optically efficient. Furthermore, since PTR glass technology enables volume gratin...

Fiber-Bragg-Grating Based Optical Amplifiers

In this chapter, we propose several schemes for fiber amplifiers which are all using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) as the key elements for their advantages of better uniformity, higher contrast ratio and lower cost. Several applications using FBG-based fiber amplifiers are also introduced. Therefore, this chapter initiates the overview of FBGs characteristics in Sec. 1, then addresses the FBGs pl...

Arbitrary-order all-fiber temporal differentiator based on a fiber Bragg grating: design and experimental demonstration.

A new technique to design an all-fiber temporal differentiator that has a large bandwidth and an arbitrary differentiation order is proposed and investigated. The proposed temporal differentiator is a special fiber Bragg grating (FBG) that is designed by controlling its magnitude and phase responses with the discrete layer peeling (DLP) method. There are three important features of this techniq...

A Simple Fiber-bragg-grating Sensor System Based on a Linear-cavity Fiber Laser

A simple fiber-Bragg-grating (FBG) sensor system based on a linear-cavity fiber laser is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The lasing wavelength shift resulting from the temperature variation on this sensing element is discriminated by two FBGs. These two FBGs, acting as wavelength discriminators, are used to increase the real-time measurement range for monitoring the temperature variat...
