Microstructured optical fiber refractive index sensor.
We describe a dual-core microstructured optical fiber designed for refractive index sensing of fluids. We show that by using the exponential dependence of intercore coupling on analyte refractive index, both large range and high sensitivity can be achieved in the one device. We also show that selective filling of the microstructure with analyte can increase the device sensitivity by approximate...
متن کاملMultiwavelength optical fiber refractive index profiling
Fourier transform spectroscopy and interference microscopy are combined to provide the world's first multi-wavelength optical fiber refractive index profile (RIP) measurements. The RIP and its spectral dependence are obtained with submicron spatial resolution across an octave stretching from about 500 nm to the 1 micron operating band of Yb-doped fiber lasers and amplifiers. In contrast to comm...
متن کاملOptical fiber index profiles by the refracted-ray method (refracted near-field scanning).
This paper has two primary purposes. First, it provides an elementary description and tutorial overview of the refracted-ray method of measuring fiber index profiles. Second, it presents new results concerning the theoretical foundation, the linearity and precision, and other aspects of the method. In particular, we find that index differences may be measured to 5% or better and conclude by sho...
متن کاملA Multi-D-Shaped Optical Fiber for Refractive Index Sensing
A novel class of multi-D-shaped optical fiber suited for refractive index measurements is presented. The multi-D-shaped optical fiber was constructed by forming several D-sections in a multimode optical fiber at localized regions with femtosecond laser pulses. The total number of D-shaped zones fabricated could range from three to seven. Each D-shaped zone covered a sensor volume of 100 μm dept...
متن کاملTailoring of refractive index profiles in LiNbO3 optical waveguides
Proton-exchange LiNbO3 planar optical waveguides have been irradiated with swift ions (Cl 30 MeV) at very low fluences in the range 5 × 1010 − 5 × 1012 cm−2. Large modifications in the refractive index profiles, and therefore in the optical performance, have been obtained due to the generation of amorphous nano-tracks by the individual ion impacts. Moreover, a fine tuning of the refractive inde...
