Miniature Twist/Rotation Fabry Perot Sensor Based on a Four-Core Fiber
Proceedings, 2018 This paper presents a miniature Fabry Perot twist/rotation sensor. The presented sensor consists of a single lead-in multicore fiber, which has four eccentrically positioned cores, a special asymmetrical microstructure, similar to a truncated cylinder ...

Self-Focusing in Multicore Fibers
Advanced Solid State Lasers, 2014 Self-focusing is the ultimate power limit of single mode fiber amplifiers. As fiber technology is approaching this limit, ways to mitigate self-focusing are becoming more and more important. Here we show a theoretical analysis of this limitation in coupled multicore fibers.

Toward Fully Soft and Multifunctional Shape Sensing via Optical Waveguide Arrays
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This work develops a sheet made with arrays of soft optical fibers that can reconstruct its 3D surface shape. Synergy of the waveguides’ responses to bending and pressing force allows shape reconstruction with resilience to damage. Applied onto surfaces of robotic or living systems, our design can be implemented in virtual reality, teleoperation ...

Grating‐Lens Empowered Metafiber for Large‐Angle Light Collection With 3D Nanoprinted Structures
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A grating‐lens‐based Metafiber enables efficient light coupling into single‐mode fibers at large incidence angles. By combining diffraction and focusing on the fiber facet using a 3D nanoprinted holographic structure, light is selectively coupled only at specific angles while suppressing unwanted signals. This approach achieves high coupling efficiency

From Planar to 3D Nanophotonic Lenses: Advancing Design, Fabrication, and Applications
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.Three‐dimensional nanophotonic lenses are enabled by an integrated workflow that links design parameterization, full‐wave electromagnetic simulation, computational optimization, and freeform fabrication. This Review summarizes how these tools expand optical design freedom beyond a single patterned plane by enriching the local meta‐atom response and ...
