Long Period Grating-Based Fiber Coupling to WGM Microresonators

open access: yesMicromachines, 2018
A comprehensive model for designing robust all-in-fiber microresonator-based optical sensing setups is illustrated. The investigated all-in-fiber setups allow light to selectively excite high-Q whispering gallery modes (WGMs) into optical microresonators,

Manufacturing and Spectral Features of Different Types of Long Period Fiber Gratings: Phase-Shifted, Turn-Around Point, Internally Tilted, and Pseudo-Random

open access: yesFibers, 2017
The manufacturing and spectral features of different types of long period fiber gratings (LPFGs), ranging from phase-shifted, turn-around point, and internally tilted gratings, to pseudo-random gratings, are described and discussed in detail.

Optical fibre long period grating based selective vapour sensing of volatile organic compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The chemical sensing capabilities of an optical fibre long period grating (LPG) coated with a functional material are explored. The LPG period and coating thickness are chosen such that the mode transition region, characteristic of LPGs coated with ...

Long-Period Fiber Gratings in Active Fibers

open access: yes, 2013
Traditionally, long period fiber gratings (LPG) are made in passive optical fibers that have negligible loss. However, loss or gain that can be controlled via optical pumping adds a new degree of freedom and - as will be shown in this chapter - brings many new and interesting properties.

Multiplexing of fiber-optic long-period grating-based interferometric sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Two long-period gratings (LPGs) fabricated in series in an optical fiber form a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, producing a sinusoidal channelled spectrum within the characteristic LPG attenuation bands, which has the appearance of an interference fringe ...

Dissimilar-fiber long-period fiber gratings: concept and demonstration

open access: yesApplied Optics, 2017
A new type of long-period fiber grating structure that contains dissimilar fiber types is proposed. This dissimilar-fiber long-period fiber grating (DF-LPFG) structure is fabricated by splicing together subperiod sections of dissimilar fiber types. Due to the large index differences that can exist between various fiber types, the resulting DF-LPFGs can
