Fiber fuse effect in microstructured fibers

OFC 2003 Optical Fiber Communications Conference, 2003., 2003
In this paper we report the first observation of the fuse effect in a microstructured fiber. The fiber was fabricated by drilling holes in a silica rod and subsequent drawing of a fiber with output diameter of 125 /spl mu/m. The threshold intensity of laser radiation and some features of catastrophic damage differ strongly from those for conventional ...

Microstructured Fibers for the Production of Food

Advanced Materials, 2019
AbstractFood engineering faces the difficult challenge of combining taste, i.e., tailoring texture and rheology of food matrices with the balanced intake of healthy nutrients. In materials science, fiber suspensions and composites have been developed as a versatile and successful approach to tailor rheology while imparting materials with added ...

Microstructured optical fibers

open access: yes, 2017
In the mid-1990s, a new class of optical fibers emerged: the microstructured optical fiber (MOF) [1,2]. In these fibers, light is guided by a complex microstructure that often, but not always, includes air holes running along the fiber length.

Soliton squeezing in microstructure fiber

Optics Letters, 2002
We demonstrate, for the first time to our knowledge, the generation of squeezed light by means of soliton self-phase modulation in microstructure fiber. We observe and characterize the formation of solitons in the microstructure fiber at 1550 nm. A maximum squeezing of 2.7 dB is observed, corresponding to 4.0 dB after correcting for detection losses ...

Microstructured polymer fiber laser

Optics Letters, 2004
A microstructured polymer optical fiber doped with Rhodamine 6G dye was fabricated and demonstrated as an optical amplifier and a fiber laser. As an amplifier, the fiber achieved a gain in excess of 30 dB. As a pulsed fiber laser, the fiber exhibited a threshold of 20 microJ, a slope efficiency of 18%, and a lifetime as high as 130,000 shots at 10 Hz ...

Microstructured Optical Fiber Sensors

2007 9th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, 2007
Microstructured optical fiber (MOF) sensors are nowadays utilized or proposed for the measurement of a large variety of physical and chemical parameters, e.g. in environmental and biological applications because of their efficiency and versatility. This paper, at first, gives a short review of MOF sensors reported in literature. An evanescent field MOF

Microstructured and multicore fibers and fiber lasers

2006 Optical Fiber Communication Conference and the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference, 2006
Microstructured and multi-core fiber lasers were fabricated that have produced more than 1.3 W/cm at 1.5 /spl mu/m. Near 2 W single frequency, single-transverse-mode output was demonstrated.

Comment on “Microstructured polymer fiber laser”

Optics Letters, 2005
We comment on the recent Letter by Argyros et al. [Opt. Lett. 29, 1882 (2004)] in which a microstructured polymer fiber doped with the dye Rhodamine 6G was discussed as a possible fiber laser source. We suggest that the lasing action at 632 nm was due to stimulated Raman scattering in the poly(methyl methacrylate) host material.

Prospective for biodegradable microstructured optical fibers

Optics Letters, 2006
We report fabrication of a novel microstructured optical fiber made of biodegradable and water soluble materials that features approximately 1 dB/cm transmission loss. Two cellulose butyrate tubes separated with hydroxypropyl cellulose powder were codrawn into a porous double-core fiber offering integration of optical, microfluidic, and potentially ...
