Efficient multi-mode to single-mode coupling in a photonic lantern.
We demonstrate the fabrication of a high performance multi-mode (MM) to single-mode (SM) splitter or "photonic lantern", first described by Leon-Saval et al. (2005). Our photonic lantern is a solid all-glass version, and we show experimentally that this device can be used to achieve efficient and reversible coupling between a MM fiber and a number of SM fibers, when perfectly matched launch con...
متن کاملMulti-mode to single-mode conversion in a 61 port Photonic Lantern.
Efficient multi-mode (MM) to single-mode (SM) conversion in a 61 port splitter or "Photonic Lantern" is demonstrated. The coupling loss from a 100 microm core diameter MM section to an ensemble of 61 SM fibers and back to another 100 microm core MM section is measured to be as low as 0.76 dB. This demonstration shows the feasibility of using the Photonic Lanterns within the field of astrophoton...
متن کاملAll-fiber few-mode multicore photonic lantern mode multiplexer.
The emergence of space division multiplexing (SDM) for ultrahigh capacity networks has heralded pioneering Petabit-class optical transmission systems. In parallel to novel SDM fibers, a new class of components to enable scalable, low-loss schemes for unlocking fiber capacity is being developed. In this work, an all-fiber mode selective photonic lantern mode multiplexer designed for launching in...
متن کاملMode-selective amplification in a large mode area Yb-doped fiber using a photonic lantern.
We demonstrate selective spatial mode amplification in a few mode, double-clad Yb-doped large mode area (LMA) fiber, utilizing an all-fiber photonic lantern. Amplification to multi-watt output power is achieved while preserving high spatial mode selectivity. We observe gain values of over 12 dB for all modes: LP01, LP11a, and LP11b, when amplified individually. ...
متن کاملMode-Selective Fiber Laser Using a Photonic Lantern
We experimentally demonstrate a transverse mode-selective fiber laser using a photonic lantern. The output modes of laser are switchable among the 6 LP modes supported by the gain fiber. Their slope efficiency, optical spectra, and mode profiles are measured. Introduction Large mode-area optical fiber can support highorder of linear polarization (LP) modes. There are many motivations for produc...
