Energy exchange during third harmonic generation in multi-mode optical fibers

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Abstract In this paper, analytical solutions in the form of Jacoby functions are found for the first time of the nonlinear set of short-cut equations describing the generation of third harmonics. Additionally, the short-cut equations are extended to a set of equations, where the influences of self-phase modulation and cross-phase ...

Effect of Laser Deoxidation on Adhesive‐Bonded Aluminum in an Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates laser ablation of aluminum under oxygen‐free conditions. The goal is to produce oxide‐free substrates that enable improved adhesive bonding with epoxy. Optimized laser parameters (90% overlap, 300 µJ) combined with oxide‐free substrates result in the highest tensile strength of the adhesive bond.

Simultaneous Measurement of Temperature and Refractive Index Using Michelson Interferometer Based on Waist-Enlarged Fiber Bitaper

Micromachines, 2022
An all-fiber temperature and refractive dual-parameter-sensing Michelson interferometer is designed based on the waist-enlarged bitaper. At 5 mm from the fiber end, the waist-enlarged bitaper is manually spliced and the probe is formed.
