Temperature dependence of a macrobending edge filter based on a high-bend loss fiber

The temperature dependence of a macrobending bare-fiber-based edge filter is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The fiber used is a high-bend loss fiber, type 1060XP. The experimental results show a good agreement with the proposed theoretical model over a temperature range from 0 degrees C to 80 degrees C. It is shown that the strong temperature dependence of a high-bend loss fiber has a significant influence on the performance of a fiber edge filter used in a wavelength measurement application. However, it is also concluded that such a temperature-dependent performance can be beneficially utilized in a fiber temperature sensing application.

Optical vernier filter with cascaded double-coupler compound fiber loop resonators

A simple optical vernier filter with cascaded double-coupler compound fiber loop resonators is proposed. The proposed filter consists of two individual double-coupler compound fiber loop resonators. The circulating and transmitted output fields and intensities, as well as some performance parameters such as the contrast, finesse and free spectral range, are computed and presented in graphical form. A comparison between this proposed vernier filter and one individual double-coupler compound fiber loop resonator is made. The simulation results show that the contrast and finesse of the proposed vernier filter can be increased remarkably compared to the individual one double-coupler compound fiber loop resonator. And it is found that the free spectral range of the proposed filter can be enhanced by the vernier operation. These results are useful when the proposed vernier filter is used to construct narrow-bandwidth filters and single-frequency fiber lasers.

Perfectly notched long-period fiber grating filter based on ICP dry etching technique

This study presents a new process using inductively a coupled plasma dry etching method to manufacture a long-period fiber grating filter with exact period, vertical sidewalls, and smooth etched surfaces, and the filter is thus named a perfectly notched long-period fiber grating (NLPFG). This process can dramatically reduce production time, and thereby provide higher volume production. The fabricated NLPFG has periods of 640 μm, resonant-attenuation wavelengths of 1518 nm, and maximum resonance-attenuation of 21.79 dB. A force induced loss-tunable calibration of the NLPFG filter was implemented, and a monotonically increasing quadratic fitting was observed. The results demonstrated that the proposed NLPFG has a much better period precision compared to corrugated LPFG, and it has great potential for a loss-tunable filter and force transducer applications.     

Design of diamond-shape photonic crystal fiber polarization filter based on surface plasma resonance effect

A novel plasmonic polarization filter based on the diamond-shape photonic crystal fiber(PCF) is proposed. The resonant coupling characteristics of the PCF polarization filter are investigated by the full-vector finite-element method. By optimizing the geometric parameters of the PCF, when the fiber length is 5 mm, the polarization filter has a bandwidth of 990 nm and an extinction ratio(ER) of lower than -20 dB. Moreover, a single wavelength polarization filter can also be achieved, along with an ER of -279.78 dB at wavelength 1.55 μm. It is believed that the proposed PCF polarization filter will be very useful in laser and optical communication systems.

Fiber Sagnac Loop Filter with a Symmetrical Piecewise Uniform FBG

We propose a novel comb filter by using a symmetrical piecewise uniform fiber Bragg grating (S-PUFBG) in a Sagnac interferometer. The filter has wide bandwidth, equal passband spacing, and low insertion loss. The total transmission bandwidth is determined by the number and the parameters of the grating segments, while the transmission spectrum can be cosine modulated to realize comb-like filtering, and the modulating frequency can be controlled by adjusting the fiber length difference in the Sagnac loop.     

Dual-wavelength narrow-linewidth fiber laser based on F-P fiber ring filter

A dual-wavelength fiber laser with a narrow-linewidth, based on a P-F fiber filter has been proposed. Polarization-maintaining fiber Bragg grating (PM-FBG) and a F-P fiber filter are introduced based on the traditional fiber laser. PM-FBG is used as the wavelength selection device. The fiber F-P filter consists of two optical couplers and a section of un-pumped erbium-doped fiber (EDF). Due to the delay of cavity and the loss generated by the EDF, the filter has comb spectral response. The incorporation of the fiber F-P filter leads to the suppression of undesirable modes. At the room temperature, under 980 nm LD pumped, the maximum output of the two wavelengths is respectively ?2.259 dBm and 0.568 dBm, with the 3-dB bandwidth separately 0.1 nm and 0.14 nm, realizing the narrow linewidth and dual-wavelength output.

Theoretical study on instantaneous linewidth of Fourier-domain mode-locked fiber lasers

We have numerically simulated the operation of the Fourier-domain mode-locked (FDML) fiber laser based on the wavelength reconstruction method instead of numerical solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We studied the influences of the filter bandwidth and the relative time delay caused by the fiber chromatic dispersion on the instantaneous linewidth of the FDML fiber laser. The results show that the instantaneous linewidth broadens as the filter bandwidth and the relative time delay increase. When the filter has the bandwidth of 0.02 nm, the narrowest and broadest instantaneous linewidths are 0.024 and 0.042 nm, respectively. We give an understanding for the oscillation of the instantaneous linewidth of FDML. The presented result can be used to evaluate the performance achievable in the FDML fiber lasers.
