Smooth end face termination of microstructured, graded-index, and step-index polymer optical fibers.
A new technique, based on a partially automated process, for smooth end face termination of three types of plastic optical fibers (microstructured, graded-index, and step-index) is presented. The cross-sectional shape of the fibers is preserved, and the structure in microstructured plastic optical fibers (POFs) is of good quality, showing no plastic deformations. The termination is achieved in ...
متن کامل“Bragg gratings in step-index polymer optical fibers: photo-inscription and characterization for sensing
of PhD thesis In this thesis report, both fiber Bragg grating (FBG) photo-inscriptions in polymer optical fibers (POFs) and their sensing applications are discussed. During my thesis work, only poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) POFs were used. They were manufactured at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. They are characterized by a core diameter of 8.2 μm and a cladding diameter of 150 μm. The...
متن کاملAnalysis of the use of tapered graded-index polymer optical fibers for refractive-index Sensors.
The behavior of tapered graded-index polymer optical fibers is analyzed computationally for different refractive indices of the surrounding medium. This serves to clarify the main parameters affecting their possible performance as refractive-index sensors and extends an existing study of similar structures in glass fibers. The ray-tracing method is employed, its specific implementation is expla...
متن کاملExploiting the capacity of 1mm PMMA step-index polymer optical fibers
Three different techniques are discussed that are currently under investigation at Siemens Corporate Technology – Information and Communications in order to exploit the bandwidth capacity of 1 mm PMMA Step-Index Polymer Optical Fiber (SI-POF). By using Adaptive Multitone Modulation (AMTM) a record result of 540 Mb/s transmission over 100 m of SI-POF is achieved.
متن کاملPolarization Losses in Optical Fibers
Very long span optical communications are mainly limited by the chromatic dispersion (CD) or group velocity dispersion (GVD), fiber nonlinearities, and optical amplifier noise (Agrawal 2005). Different frequencies of a pulse travel with their own velocities, which involves a pulse spreading. In a fiber-optic communication system, information is transmitted within a fiber by using a coded sequen...
