Three methods for improving an axial strain sensitivity of polarization maintaining fiber loop mirror

Sensitivity is one of the important performances for sensor. Theoretical results show that we can choose a long wavelength monitoring point, a high strain dependent birefringence coefficient polarization maintaining fiber (PMF) and a low birefringence PMF to improve the axial strain sensitivity of PMF loop mirror, and experimental results show that the axial strain sensitivity has respectively been improved by 8.06, 30.73, and 22.26% by these methods. The advantage of these methods is to improve the axial strain sensitivity without increasing system complexity. These results help to improve the temperature, displacement, torsion, curvature and liquid level sensitivities of PMF loop mirror. These results can also be applied in photonic crystal fiber loop mirror.

Temperature-sensitive dual-segment polarization maintaining fiber Sagnac loop mirror

A new temperature-sensitive fiber Sagnac loop mirror (FLM) is proposed using two segments of polarization maintaining fiber (PMF).

Besides, the proposed configuration also enables both efficient positive and negative spectral spacing detuning by rising the temperature of one of the PMF segments. The experimental results show that the proposed configuration has achieved a great improvement in increasing spectral spacing variation range by 6.6 times and an increment of temperature sensitivity as much as 337.6% as compared to the conventional configuration.

Switchable erbium-doped fiber ring laser based on Sagnac loop mirror incorporating few-mode high birefringence fiber

Without the need of any other additional filtering device, a triple-wavelength switchable erbium-doped fiber ring laser based on Sagnac loop mirror incorporating a piece of few-mode high birefringence fiber is newly proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Three potential lasing wavelengths at about 2.0 nm interval with the side mode suppression ratio higher than 40 dB can be switched mainly by adjusting a polarization controller next to the few-mode high birefringence fiber in the Sagnac loop. In addition to the stable single-line lasing operation, simultaneous dual- and triple-line oscillations are also highly stable at room temperature with suppressing the intrinsic homogeneous gain broadening of the erbium-doped fiber.
