Long-period gratings in chemical sensing [PDF]
A chemical sensor system consisting of a coated long period grating, which was spliced into a fiber loop cavity, has been prepared and characterized. Designer coatings based on polydimethylsiloxane and nanostructured organically modified silica (ORMOSIL) materials were prepared to provide enhanced sensitivity for a variety of key environmental ...

Spot-Size Converter Based on Long-Period Grating
We propose a spot-size converter (SSC) by exploiting the high-efficiency mode conversion capability that a long-period grating (LPG) possesses. Our proof-of-concept LPG-based SSC, fabricated with optical polymer material on silicon nitride (Si3N4 ...

Advances in Multicore Fiber Grating Sensors
In recent years, multicore fiber (MCF) has attracted increasing interest for sensing applications, due to its unique fiber structure of multiple parallel cores in a single fiber cladding, which offers a flexible configurable platform to establish diverse

Experimental validation of a reflective long period grating design methodology
In this work, we present an experimental demonstration of our previously published modeling work on reflective long period grating (LPG). To provide the practical realization of the modeling work, we coat a long segment of fiber both in the tail length ...

Radiation Effects on Long Period Fiber Gratings: A Review [PDF]
Over the last years, fiber optic sensors have been increasingly applied for applications in environments with a high level of radiation as an alternative to electrical sensors, due to their: high immunity, high multiplexing and long-distance monitoring capability.

Structural microfiber long-period gratings
We experimentally demonstrate a novel structural long-period grating by helically coiling one microfiber onto another with the relatively thicker diameter. Owing to the strong periodic modulation of the coiled microfiber to the evanescent field of the straight microfiber, a resonance transmission notch of ~16.2 dB can be induced for a compact device ...

Long Period Fibre Gratings [PDF]
In essence, a long period fibre grating (LPFG) is an all-fibre device with wavelength dependent loss. As a band rejection filter, all light in a spectral slice is discarded without affecting the amplitude and phase of neighbouring wavelengths, with the additional advantage of low insertion losses and minimum backreflection (Daxhelet, 2003).

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.
