Long-period gratings in polymer ridge waveguides
Optics Express, 2005 We report the design and fabrication of long-period waveguide gratings (LPWGs) in benzocyclobutene (BCB) ridge waveguides. We apply an accurate perturbation theory to analyze the LPWGs. In particular, the phase-matching condition, the coupling coefficients, the temperature dependence of the resonance wavelength, the bandwidth, and the polarization ...

Effect of Low-Doses of Gamma Radiation on Electric Arc-Induced Long Period Fiber Gratings
Sensors, 2021 This work presents an experimental study on the effects of gamma radiation on Long Period Fiber Gratings (LPFGs) in a low-dose test campaign to evaluate their eventual degradation.

Arc-Induced Long Period Fiber Gratings [PDF]
Journal of Sensors, 2016 Long period fiber gratings produced by the electric arc technique have found an increasing interest by the scientific community due to their ease to fabricate, virtually enabling the inscription in any kind of fiber, low cost, and flexibility. In 2005 we have presented the first review on this subject.

Overwrite fabrication and tuning of long period gratings
Optics Express, 2016 The central wavelengths of the resonance bands are critical aspect of the performance of long period gratings (LPGs) as sensors, particularly for devices designed to operate near the phase matching turning point (PMTP), where the sensitivity to measurements can vary rapidly.

Nested long period grating interferometers [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 2007 The concept of nested fibre optic long period grating (LPG) based interferometers is introduced. A number of in-series, identical LPGs may be used to form a set of nested, multiplexed Mach-Zehnder interferometers that may demodulated and demultiplexed by virtue of a Fourier analysis of the optical spectrum.

Three-grating monolithic phase-mask for the single-order writing of large-period gratings [PDF]
Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2011 An optimized achromatic high-efficiency monolithic phase mask is presented whose principle was demonstrated and described in reference [1]. The mask comprises three submicron period diffraction gratings at a single substrate side that create a purely ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals (FNLCs) offer fast, tunable polarization and low‐voltage operation but suffer from poor polarization retention at zero field. Semiconductor‐modified FNLCs enhance polarization retention and exhibit short‐ and long‐term electro‐optical responses, while also supporting spike‐type signal integrations.
