Efficient fiber-optical interface for nanophotonic devices [PDF]

, 2014
We demonstrate a method for efficient coupling of guided light from a single mode optical fiber to nanophotonic devices. Our approach makes use of single-sided conical tapered optical fibers that are evanescently coupled over the last ~10 um to a ...

Linking Distributed and Integrated Fiber‐Optic Sensing

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
AbstractDistributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) has become a popular method of observing seismic wavefields: backscattered pulses of light reveal strains or strain rates at any location along a fiber‐optic cable. In contrast, a few newer systems transmit light through a cable and collect integrated phase delays over the entire cable, such as the Microwave ...

Rare Earth-Doped Microfiber Bragg Grating Refractive Index Sensor With Self-Photothermal Manipulation

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2021
We demonstrate a microfiber Bragg grating as the reflective refractometer with the function of self-photoheating. The rare earth-doped fiber provides not only the photosensitivity to the UV modulation but also the effective pump laser absorption and ...

Flat fiber: the flexible format for distributed lab-on-a-chip [PDF]

, 2007
Integrated optical devices offer dense, multifunctional capability in a single robust package but are rarely considered compatible with the fields of remote or distributed sensing or long-haul 'one-dimensional' fibers.
