We demonstrate the suitability of the third-harmonic-generation technique as a new nonlinear microprobe for nondestructive determination of the index profile of optical fibers. Photonic bandgap (Bragg-type) and air-silica microstructure (ASM) fibers were tested. The complete spatial characteristics, such as hole diameter and spacing into ASM fibers or sandwiched layer thickness into Bragg fibers, were demonstrated to be attainable anywhere along a bare fiber. 相似文献

Using the power flow equation, we have calculated spatial transients of power distribution and a steady-state distribution that are due to coupling of guided to leaky modes in W-type optical fibers (doubly clad fibers). A numerical solution has been obtained by the explicit finite difference method. Results show that power distribution in W-type optical fibers depends on both the intermediate layer width and the coupling strength. W-shaped index profile of optical fibers is effective in reducing modal dispersion and therefore in improving the fiber bandwidth. We have also shown that explicit finite difference method is effective and accurate for solving the power flow equation in W-type optical fibers. 相似文献

Plastic optical fibers are typical large-core multimode optical fibers. High-bandwidth graded-index plastic optical fibers, which support a great number of propagation modes compared with conventional silica-glass multimode optical fibers, were developed in the 1990s. However, because they support a great number of propagation modes, their modal analyses have been limited to the WKB analysis. We obtain all the propagation modes of a convex-index large-core multimode optical fiber by use of the finite-element method, which has a strong advantage for arbitrary core profiles. 相似文献

Optical fibers may be applied in measurements of
electrical current, particularly as so-called optical current transformers.
Electric current sensors, in which optical fibers are used are small, light,
cheap and safe. Their sensitivity is, however, due to the restricted
magnetootpic properties of optical fibers, rather small. Moreover, these
sensors are susceptible to deformations of the optical fiber. An increase of
their sensitivity consists in lengthening the distance of optical fiber on
which the magnetic field acts. However, this can lead to an increase of
disturbances caused by changes of internal stresses. The negative effects
can be reduced by applying optical fibers with a higher magnetooptic
sensitivity and a lower susceptibility to mechanical stresses and
deformations. The present paper deals with side-hole optical fibers with a
decreased birefringence reducing the susceptibility to deformations. The
optical fibers consist of a multicomponent glass with a higher value of the
refractive index, thanks to which the sensitivity to the effect of the
external magnetic field is increased. In future such optical fibers are
planed to be applied in magnetooptic sensors. 相似文献

In order to meet the requirements necessary for advanced optical fiber transmission schemes that enable larger transmission capacity, higher efficiency and/or lower transmission costs per bit, optical fiber technologies are still evolving toward ultimate performance. Recent developmental activities have realized a number of improved performance optical fibers, such as ultra-low loss or ultra-low nonlinearity fibers and various types of dispersion-modified fibers. Fiber-based dispersion compensators or dispersion compensating fibers have also become one of the most essential optical components that support high-speed large capacity optical transmission. Very recently, the dispersion compensating fibers have further evolved into dispersion-managed optical transmission lines, which are now being actually deployed in transoceanic submarine optical cable networks. 相似文献

Optical infrared (IR) fibers with core-clad structure are of great importance because they have better qualities than unclad fibers for most IR fiber applications, especially in CO2 laser power delivery and radiometry. We have fabricated core-clad polycrystalline silver halide optical fibers with different compositions and core diameters, and although their loss is still higher than that of unclad fibers, they already have many advantages and new capabilities. The behavior of the scattering loss along these fibers and other optical properties was measured and compared with that of unclad silver halide fibers. We show that the higher loss of clad fibers results mainly from excessive scattering. The improvement in the process of fabricating clad fibers enabled the production of new elements such as single-mode fibers (SMFs) and fiber bundles for thermal imaging. 相似文献

采用二种方式推算了光纤采用六边形排列配用圆形端套光纤传光束的理论敛集率,其值为90.69%,这一值同光纤采用六边形排列配用长方形端套的传光束理论敛集率一致.而单根粗直径聚合物光纤和液芯光纤配用圆形端套制作的光纤传光束,其敛集率为100%,在可见光或紫外光范围内,选用单根粗直径聚合物光纤或液芯光纤传光束具有更多的优势.分析了皮层的厚度对光纤传光束或传像束填充率的影响,当光纤半径低于250 μm时,皮层厚度对细直径光纤传光束或传像束填充率影响明显,而当光纤半径大于等于500 μm,皮层厚度的影响相对较小. 相似文献

In free-space or in optical fibers, orbital angular momentum(OAM) multiplexing for information transmission has been greatly developed. The light sources used were well coherent communication bands, and the fibers used were customized. Here, we use an 810 nm femtosecond laser to generate optical vortices carrying OAM and then feed them into two kinds of commercial step-index few-mode fibers to explore the transmission characteristics of OAM modes. We also propose a method without multiple-input multiple-output digital signal processing to identify the input OAMs. It is of great guiding significance for high-dimensional quantum information experiments via the OAMs as a degree of freedom, using the light generated by the spontaneous parametric down-conversion as the source and the commercial fibers for information transmission. 相似文献

Optical fibers are key components in telecommunication technologies. Apart from optical specifications, optical fibers are expected to keep most of their physical properties for 10–20 years in current operating conditions. The reliability and the expected lifetime of optical links are closely related to action of the chemical environment on the silica network. However, the coating also contributes largely to the mechanical properties of the fibers.The aim of this work was to study the strength and the mechanical behavior of the silica optical fibers in an acid environment and with a permanent deformation. A container with ammonium bifluoride acid salt was plunged into hot water at different temperatures (55 and 75 °C). This emitted acid vapors which attacked the optical fibers for a period of 1–18 days. An aging study was performed on silica optical fibers with standard polyacrylate coating and with hermetic carbon coating. A dynamic two-point bending bench at different faceplate velocities (100, 200, 400 and 800 μm/s) was used. For comparison, the same dynamic measurements were also carried out on non-aged fibers.After acid vapor condensation, salt crystal deposits on the fibers were displayed using an electron scanning microscope. These crystals became visible to the naked eye from the seventh day. 相似文献

以光纤的机械可靠性为主线综述了光纤材料中固有裂纹的生长和传播所导致的光纤断裂机制.在该断裂力学的基础上推导了传统通信光纤在平直应用中的寿命预测模型.继而分析了处于弯曲构型中的传感环圈光纤表面的应力分布,然后在与传统理论相同的基本断裂机理下,类比于通信光纤可靠性模型的推导,据此应力分析给出了评估这种环圈光纤的机械可靠性的一般模型.进而从工程应用的角度简化了所推导出的一般模型,使之能够快速简单地给出环圈光纤失效概率的保守评估.在此简化模型的基础上,数值计算了目前常见的几种传感环圈中的光纤在服役期间的累积失效概率;其结果同时也显示了该环圈光纤的失效概率对光纤参量、环圈参量以及工艺参量的依赖关系.根据这一依赖关系,不仅可以快速评估在各种服役应力条件下具有不同寿命要求的光纤环圈的失效概率,同时也能对这些环圈的设计提供参考. 相似文献

Microstructured crystalline optical fiber from silver halides is described. Both experimental and theoretical evidences are presented to establish that the fiber is effectively single mode at wavelength 10.6 micro m with numerical aperture NA=0.16 and optical losses of approximately 2 dB/m. Crystalline microstructured optical fibers offer key advantages over step-index optical fibers from silver halide crystals. The wide transmission range of wavelengths 2-20 micro m provides great potential for applications in spectroscopy and for the development of a range of new crystalline-based nonlinear optical fibers. 相似文献

The reliability and the expected lifetime of optical fibers used in telecommunication technologies are closely related to the chemical environment action on the silica network. To ensure the long-term mechanical strength of the optical fibers, a polymer coating was applied onto the fiber surface during fiber fabrication. This external coating is vital to ensure a long optical fiber lifetime. Its protective action includes several functions, such as to protect glass fiber from any external damage, to limit chemical attack, in particular that of water, and finally to ensure fatigue protection and bending insensitivity, especially during handling and in-service installation. Since the mechanical strength of the fiber is controlled by its surface characteristics, we propose a new method for increasing fiber strength.The silica optical fibers used were 125 μm in diameter, with a 62.5 μm thick epoxy-acrylate coating. Fibers were rolled up around two similar cylinders. Using a screw, these cylinders moved away from one another and thus subjected the fibers to stretching. Submitted to this mechanical loading, the distended fibers were plunged into hot water at 65 or 85 °C and aged for several days. Then, the fibers were removed from the water and various weights were suspended on the fiber ends. Thus, the fibers were subjected to a tensile loading in static fatigue for several days. Just before fiber rupture, the fibers were unloaded and subjected to dynamic tensile tests at different velocities.Result analysis proved that the aging in hot water increased the fiber strength. The Weibull's diagram study shows a bimodal dispersion of defects on the fiber surface and the important role of polymer coating. 相似文献

Owing to the health hazard of respirable airborne fibers, there is great interest in detectors able to monitor fibers on‐line. This paper features such an optical fiber detector which is based on Fraunhofer theory for the estimation of fiber size. Because Fraunhofer theory is not an exact theory and does not take into account the three‐dimensional shape of fibers and their material properties, comparative computations with an exact theory, the multiple multipole method (MMP), a variant of the generalized multipole technique, were performed. For small fiber diameters these simulations showed differences between diffraction patterns calculated via Fraunhofer theory and scattering patterns computed with MMP. The differences were strongly dependent on the optical properties of the fiber material. 相似文献

The phenomenon of destruction of silica fiber cladding by the fiber fuse effect has been observed for the first time to the authors' knowledge. Experiments on the optical discharge propagation along a fiber were conducted with fibers of decreased cladding thickness. The destruction of fiber cladding led to expansion of the optical discharge plasma and to a decrease of its density. This resulted in the termination of optical discharge propagation. The section of a fiber with decreased cladding thickness can act as a safety device to halt damage propagation. 相似文献

We present a numerical study of stimulated Brillouin scattering in optical fibers based on a full modal analysis of the acoustic and optical properties. The computation of each acoustic mode supported by the fiber structure allows us an accurate and detailed investigation of the characteristics of the Brillouin gain spectrum. We focus our attention on the contribution of the higher-order acoustic modes which are sometimes ignored because of computational issues in particular on optical fibers that act as acoustic antiwaveguides. Our analysis clearly highlights their role and their dependence on the physical and geometrical structure of the fiber. 相似文献
