折射率调制深度误差对切趾啁啾光纤光栅特性的影响

从耦合模方程出发,用一种矩阵方法分析了折射率调制深度误差对切趾啁啾布拉格光纤光栅传输特性的影响.结果表明:折射率调制深度误差的分布频率越高,光栅传输特性受到的危害越小;误差平均幅值越高,光栅传输特性的劣化程度越大.因此,在光栅的制作过程中,应注意避免和减小高幅值误差,并注意减少低空间频率分布的误差.     

Lineshape and polarization mode dispersion of waves diffracted by apodized and chirped fiber Bragg gratings in reflection

The amplitude and phase of a light wave propagating in an apodized and chirped Bragg grating is given by the superposition of two orthogonal coupled wave functions that are the solution of a non-linear Riccati equation. An analytical solution, in the form of an integral transform, that predicts the amplitude, phase, and intensity profile of the light diffracted by grating, in which the local Bragg wavelength is asymmetric, and the forward and counter propagating modes are non-degenerate is presented. For even apodization and odd chirp the lineshape has an asymmetrical Gaussian form the result of mixing of the real and imaginary components of the apodized grating wave function. The effect of chirping is to shift the resonance wavelength, increase the grating bandwidth and polarization mode dispersion. The dependence of linewidth and dispersion on parameters that alter apodization and chirp after fabrication, is also discussed.     

Real-time Ginzburg-Landau theory for bosons in optical lattices

Within the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism we derive a Ginzburg-Landau theory for the Bose-Hubbard model which describes the real-time dynamics of the complex order parameter field. Analyzing the excitations in the vicinity of the quantum phase transitions it turns out that particle/hole dispersions in the Mott phase map continuously onto corresponding amplitude/phase excitations in the superfluid phase. Furthermore, in the superfluid phase we find a sound mode, which is in accordance with recent Bragg spectroscopy measurements in the Bogoliubov regime, as well as an additional gapped mode, which seems to have been detected via lattice modulation.

Modelling of strongly nonlinear sinusoidal Bragg gratings by the Method of Single Expression

The one-dimensional problem of plane EM wave interaction with strongly nonlinear sinusoidal Bragg gratings is exactly solved using the new Method of Single Expression (MSE). The basic point of the method is the presentation of the electrical field in the modulated medium (Bragg grating) in the form of a single expression, contrary to the traditional counter-propagating waves approach. The spectral characteristics of linear Bragg gratings of different length are presented. The influence of loss or gain on the spectral characteristics of Bragg gratings is considered. The electrical field amplitude distributions along a grating at the wavelengths corresponding to the minima and maxima of reflectivity in the vicinity of the Bragg resonance are illustrated. Bistable and multistable dependences of reflectivity on the incident electrical field amplitude are obtained for negative and positive nonlinearities.     

Single-mode fiber laser based on core-cladding mode conversion

A single-mode fiber laser based on an intracavity core-cladding mode conversion is demonstrated. The fiber laser consists of an Er-doped active fiber and two fiber Bragg gratings. One Bragg grating is a core-cladding mode converter, and the other Bragg grating is a narrowband high reflector that selects the lasing wavelength. Coupling a single core mode and a single cladding mode by the grating mode converter, the laser operates as a hybrid single-mode laser. This approach for designing a laser cavity provides a much larger mode area than conventional large-mode-area step-index fibers.

π相移光纤光栅对超声波致非均匀应变场的传感特性

π相移光纤光栅用于水中超声传感时,超声波沿光纤轴向入射和垂直光纤入射时的传感波形及幅度显著不同。针对这一现象,本文建立了基于光学传递矩阵的光纤光栅声传感理论模型,计算了超声波分别沿轴向和沿垂直方向入射时π相移光纤光栅中的非均匀应变场分布,进而分析了光谱偏移,揭示了两种入射角度下π相移光纤光栅的传感特性与声传播导致的应变场分布相关,并通过实验进行了验证。结果表明,两种入射角度产生的不同的非均匀应变场分布对π相移光纤光栅的传感特性影响明显。超声波垂直入射时的传感波形和幅度均优于轴向入射,且π相移处对传感有显著作用。当入射位置远离π相移处时,垂直入射的响应也明显降低。本研究可为π相移光纤光栅超声传感的机理分析提供参考。     

Simultaneous Measurement of Temperature and Refractive Index of Liquid Using Cladding-Etched Double-Core Fiber Bragg Grating

Abstract

This study proposed and demonstrated a fiber Bragg grating sensor for simultaneous detection of the temperature and refractive index of a liquid. The fiber Bragg grating is composed of three index layers: an inner core, an outer core, and a cladding. The cladding was etched for evanescent wave coupling between the outer core mode and an external liquid. The Bragg wavelength of the inner core mode is used for obtaining temperature data, while the refractive index for the liquid was determined by using the difference between the Bragg wavelength of the inner core mode and that of outer core mode.

Hybrid FBG–LPG sensor for surrounding refractive index and temperature simultaneous discrimination

In this work, we propose a configuration of a hybrid fiber Bragg grating together with a long period grating sensor used for simultaneously detect surrounding refractive index and temperature to be applied in aqueous environment and to reveal pollution. We present the simulation of such sensor and analyze the reflected wavelength and amplitude variations of the fiber Bragg grating spectrum to obtain the temperature and the external refractive index variations, respectively. The results show that the fiber Bragg grating reflected amplitude change depends on the variation of the long period grating transmission spectrum with the surrounding refractive index modification and the reflected wavelength shift depends on the temperature of the aqueous solution.     

Light guidance in a photonic bandgap slab waveguide consisting of two different Bragg reflectors

By means of a zigzag-wave model, we perform a comprehensive analysis of the guided modes of a photonic bandgap slab waveguide that consists of a low-index guiding layer placed between two different Bragg reflectors. We show that the guided modes of the waveguide operate inside the overlapped bandgaps of the two Bragg reflectors. We label each mode with three mode orders, which reflect the features of the mode-field distribution in the guiding layer and the two Bragg reflectors, respectively. We discuss in detail the transmission characteristics of the guided modes, including the dispersion curves, the cutoff conditions, and the confinement factors, and highlight the mode-selection characteristics of the waveguide. We also study the effects of truncating the Bragg reflectors by deriving an analytical expression to show the dependence of the leakage losses of the modes on the numbers of the periods in the truncated Bragg reflectors.     

Numerical Study on Bragg Fibers for Infrared Applications

The photonic band structure, waveguiding mechanism, mode field distribution, leakage loss, and material loss of Bragg fiber are studied by the full vectorial plane wave expansion method and the transfer matrix method. Systematical study has shown the distinctive properties of Bragg fiber and the similarity between Bragg fiber and hollow metallic waveguide, demonstrating the feasibility of Bragg fiber to work in a low loss, single mode manner. Furthermore, a comparison between the band structures calculated by plane wave expansion method and by transfer matrix method is conducted to show the practicability to treat Bragg fibers electromagnetic behavior in a Bloch theorem approach, verifying the photonic bandgap concept for the analysis of Bragg fiber.     

Fiber optic liquid leak detection technique with an ultrasonic actuator and a fiber Bragg grating

We present a technique for liquid leak detection in which ultrasonic and optical waves are introduced into a fiber simultaneously. The system is based on an ultrasonic technique using an ultrasonic actuator and a fiber Bragg grating receiver. A fiber-guided ultrasonic wave is utilized to stress the fiber Bragg grating, which is remote from the ultrasonic transmitter. When the traveling ultrasonic wave encounters a liquid, part of the wave will leak out from the fiber, which results in an ultrasonic strain decrease in the fiber Bragg grating. The ultrasonic wave and its attenuation are detected by the light variation of a narrowband laser source reflected and transmitted from the fiber Bragg grating, and the amplitude variation of the ultrasound can eventually be correlated with the fiber area coupled with the liquid.
