Phase encoding and decoding of short pulses at 10Gb/s using superstructured fiber Bragg gratings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A 7-chip, 160-Gchip/s phase-shift keyed code is assigned to short pulses after reflection from a superstructured fiber Bragg grating. The code is then recognized by a second grating, which is nominally identical to the encoder grating.

Photothermal effects in fiber Bragg gratings

open access: yesApplied Optics, 2006
Writing a fiber Bragg grating in optical fiber generates an intrinsic broadband absorption term that can result in photothermal heating during subsequent use with fiber core guided light. This, in turn, can cause a significant shift of a grating resonance via the thermo-optic coefficient, even at low in-fiber light powers.

High-speed interferometric FBG interrogator with dynamic and absolute wavelength measurement capability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A passive, interferometric wavelength demodulation technique has been extended to measure the absolute wavelengths of a multiplexed array of fiber Bragg grating sensors. The scheme retains its original strain resolution of 10 nε/√{Hz}. A proof-of-concept

EndoTac: An Endoscopic Camera‐Based Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity for Minimally Invasive Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

Temperature and strain discrimination using a single tilted fibre Bragg grating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A fibre optic sensor capable of discriminating between temperature and strain, using a single fibre Bragg grating, is presented. The technique exploits the core–cladding mode coupling of a tilted fibre Bragg grating (TFBG). The core and cladding modes

Low Threshold Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers Based on CsPbI3 Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The first vertical‐cavity surface‐emitting laser (VCSEL) based on CsPbI3 thin films is fabricated by planar hot pressing. By optimizing the cavity design through optical gain assessment and rigorous coupled‐wave analysis, the VCSEL achieved an exceptionally low lasing threshold of 2.8 µJ cm−2.
