Simultaneous Beat-Length Measurement of a Polarization-Maintaining Few-Mode Fiber
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2019 Based on the polarization interference technique, we propose a modified method for simultaneously measuring the beat length of all guided modes in a polarization-maintaining few-mode fiber (PM-FMF).

Influence of an Argon/Silane Atmosphere on the Temperature of a Thermal Plasma
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The influence of a silane‐doped argon atmosphere on the chemical composition and temperature of a thermal nontransferring argon plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. As a result of the high amount of free electrons resulting from the stepwise ionization and dissociation of the silane molecule, even a silane addition of 0.01 vol ...

Generation of High-Quality Cylindrical Vector Beams from All-Few-Mode Fiber Laser
PhotonicsTransverse mode control of laser intracavity oscillation is crucial for generating high-purity cylindrical vector beams (CVBs). We utilized the mode conversion and mode selection properties of two-mode long-period fiber gratings (TM-LPFGs) and two-mode ...

Twist Sensor Based on Long Period Grating and Tilted Bragg Grating Written in Few-Mode Fibers
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2018 A twist sensor based on a few-mode long period grating (LPG) and a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) is proposed and demonstrated. The LPG, inscribed in a step index few-mode fiber by a CO2 laser, is utilized to excite the LP11 core mode.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Thermomechanical fatigue tests of laser beam powder bed fusion (PBF‐LB) Inconel 718 show that the additively manufactured material reaches almost the lifetimes of conventionally‐rolled material under no‐dwell conditions. Introducing dwell times at the maximum temperature markedly reduces the lifetimes due to pronounced grain boundary sliding associated

Comparative Research on Mode Permutation Strategies in Mode-division Multiplexing Systems
Guangtongxin yanjiu【Objective】Mode-division multiplexing is a key technology to break through the capacity limit of single-mode fiber systems. In the few-mode fiber links, the pulse broadening caused by intermodal dispersion increases the complexity of multiple-input ...

All-fiber few-mode interference for complex azimuthal pattern generation
Scientific ReportsWe report on an all-fiber setup capable of generating complex intensity patterns using interference of few guided modes. Comprised by a few-mode fiber (FMF) spliced to a multimodal interference (MMI) fiber device, the setup allows for obtaining different

Effect of Laser Deoxidation on Adhesive‐Bonded Aluminum in an Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study investigates laser ablation of aluminum under oxygen‐free conditions. The goal is to produce oxide‐free substrates that enable improved adhesive bonding with epoxy. Optimized laser parameters (90% overlap, 300 µJ) combined with oxide‐free substrates result in the highest tensile strength of the adhesive bond.
