چکیده

A novel test methodology is established to evaluate the strain relief boot on optoelectronic components and optical fiber components by measuring the fiber bend radius in side pull test. The technique is developed for qualifying the boot design rather than for lot testing. The criterion and process are provided.

A Cost-Effective Relative Humidity Sensor Based on Side Coupling Induction Technology

A intensity-modulated optical fiber relative humidity (RH) sensor based on the side coupling induction technology (SCIT) is presented and experimentally demonstrated. The agarose gel and the twisted macro-bend coupling structure are first combined for RH sensing applications. The refractive index (RI) of the agarose gel increases with the increase of the RH and is in linear proportion from 20 t...

Air trench waveguide bend for high density optical integration

Air trench structure for reduced-size bends in low ( n=0.01-0.1) and medium ( n=0.1-0.3) index contrast waveguides is proposed. Local high index contrast at bends is achieved by introducing air trenches. An air trench bend consists of cladding tapers to avoid junction loss, providing adiabatic mode shaping between low and high index contrast regions. Drastic reduction in effective bend radius i...

Bend sensor based on fibreoptics and concept for a compact evaluation unit

A concept study for a bend sensor based on a fibre Bragg grating (FBG) and a compact evaluation unit for the investigated type of sensor is presented. The fibreoptic sensor is capable of resolving the radius and the direction of the bend. The measurement data evaluation unit is capable of resolving multiple distributed FBG sensors, which are present in a single fibre at different positions.

Polarisation Dependence of Bend Loss for a Standard Singlemode Fiber

Polarization dependence of bend loss caused by the polymer coating layer for a standard singlemode fiber (SMF28) is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Bend loss for SMF28 for both the TE and TM mode is calculated separately. Normalized polarization dependent loss is proposed for the characterization of the polarization sensitivity of bend loss for different bend radii. Corresponding...
