圆芯型边孔光纤双折射的有限元分析

对网芯型边孔光纤固有双折射的研究结果进行了报道。在对边孔光纤固有烈折射的产生机理和计算原理进行研究的基础之上,采用有限元法分析了网芯型边孔光纤的内部应力分布和双折射的大小。研究结果表明圆芯型边孔光纤的几何双折射较小,以应力双折射为主;边孔的存在导致光纤纤芯和包层区域的应力分布发生了较大的变化。文章提出了两边孔的连线方向为边孔光纤的快轴方向．并就不同的边孔结构对光纤双折射的影响进行了研究,发现网芯网孔型边孔光纤的同钉双折射随边孔张角的增加而成指数关系增长．可通过增大边孔半径和减小两孔间距提高边孔光纤的双折射。

Birefringence of SbSI and SbSeI crystals at the region of antiferroelectric phase transition

Anomalous behavior has been observed in the temperature range of T = 140–145 °C. The electric current I(T) of SbSI and SbSeI crystals along the c(z) axis changes significantly at the region of the antiferroelectric phase transition when DC voltage is applied. The peak positions are observed at 140 °C and 145 °C for SbSI and SbSeI, respectively. The birefringence spectra show temperature-dependent changes upon retardation m, confirming the antiferroelectric phase transition for both crystals. The peak positions observed from the optical measurements do not differ from the electrical measurements, showing the transition point at 140?°C and 145?°C for SbSI and SbSeI, respectively.     

Laser polarimetry of the orientation structure of bone tissue osteons

A matrix method is proposed for describing polarization properties of biological tissues as an aggregate of uniaxial crystal structures. We investigated 25 μm-thick histological sections of compact bone tissue which provided single light scattering. It is shown that in this case there exists a unique relationship between the polarization parameters of the boundary laser field and the parameters of anisotropy and orientation of the structural elements of biological tissue. On this basis, contactless methods of laser polarimetry of histological sections of bone tissue have been proposed.

The PMD of sinusoidally spun fibers in the presence of random birefringence perturbations

Although fiber spinning is known to reduce polarization mode dispersion (PMD) effects in optical fibers, relatively few studies have been performed of the dependence of the reduction factor on the strength of random birefringence fluctuations. In this paper, we apply a general mathematical model of random fiber birefringence to sinusoidally spun fibers. We find that while even in the presence of random birefringence perturbations the maximum reduction of PMD is still obtained when the phase matching condition is satisfied, the degree of PMD reduction and the probability distribution function of the DGD both vary with the random birefringence profiles.     

Residual stress determination in aluminium using electromagnetic acoustic transducers

The residual stresses in a shrink-fit specimen were measured ultrasonically, using shear-horizonal (SH) waves transmitted and received by noncontacting electromagnetic acoustic transducers. The presence of stress induces a small change in the velocity of the SH-waves. The difference in velocities of orthogonally polarized SH-waves (acoustic birefringence) was measured with a simple time-interval averaging system; this velocity difference can be related to the difference of principal stresses. The presence of material anisotropy (texture) in the specimen also causes relative velocity changes comparable to stress-induced changes. A simple method was used to remove the anisotropy-dependent component of the total relative velocity change, thereby allowing a determination of residual stress. This method consisted of measuring the birefringence in unstressed reference specimens and subtracting it from the birefringence measured at stressed locations. For the specimen used here, good agreement between theoretical and experimental values of stress was obtained.

Simultaneous measurement of transient stress and flow birefringence in one-sided compression (biaxial extension) of a polymer melt

Summary Investigation of time dependent behaviour of a polystyrene melt is carried out with the aid of a new apparatus for biaxial extension. Use is made of the method of two impinging fluid streams guided by lubricated trumpet shaped metal walls. The flow birefringence is measured in the plane of symmetry and, at the same time, the force is measured which tends to separate the trumpets. The linear stress-optical relation turns out to be valid in this new flow geometry. An accurate value for the stress-optical coefficient can be determined from the relaxation experiments. The stress build-up as calculated from the optical measurements, is compared with the pertinent result of the theory of linear viscoelasticity. For the desired interconversion of dynamic moduli use is made of the approximation by Schwarzl and Struik. The steady state measurements are checked by the results of the non-linear model of Acierno et al.With 16 figures and 2 tables
