Generalized Method to Describe the Propagation of Pulses in Classical and Specialty Optical Fibers
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2019 The comprehension of pulsed light propagation is of paramount importance in fiber optics. Here, we present a general method to describe the propagation of pulses in any kind of optical fiber, regardless of its fabrication process or constituent materials.

Experimental stress-strain analysis of tapered silica optical fibers with nanofiber waist
, 2014 We experimentally determine tensile force-elongation diagrams of tapered optical fibers with a nanofiber waist. The tapered optical fibers are produced from standard silica optical fibers using a heat and pull process. Both, the force-elongation data and

Microbend fiber-optic sensor [PDF]
Applied Optics, 1984 Intensity modulation induced by microbending in multimode fibers is considered as a transduction mechanism for detecting environmental changes such as pressure, temperature, acceleration, and magnetic and electric fields. A generic microbend sensor has been defined and studied, and its components, such as sensing fiber, light source, optical fiber ...
