Fiber optic gyroscope with single mode fiber coil
8th Optical Fiber Sensors Conference, 1992Fiber optic gyros (FOGs) are all solid state devices, compact, lightweight and highly reliable. These merits have attracted much attention and developments have been energetically implemented mainly for aerospace applications.

Optical field mapping using single-mode optical fibers
Applied Optics, 1978A new method of measuring the complete optical field distribution (optical field mapping) is proposed and is applied to the measurement of Gaussian beam distribution at its beam waist. This method utilizes an interference technique and uses two single-mode optical fibers as flexible paths.

Single-mode polymer optical fibers
2014 16th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2014The mechanical properties of polymer optical fibers (POF) make them very interesting candidates for fiber optical sensors. Today POFs are mainly used for short range data communication. These fibers have a very large core of 980 μm. This large core is beneficial for handling and maintenance in fiber networks.

Single-Mode Optical Fiber Characterization
Optical Engineering, 1985The measurement of the relevant parameters of single-mode optical fibers (namely, cutoff wavelength, mode field diameter, chromatic dispersion, and refractive index profile) is discussed, with explicit reference both to the work carried out within the Comite Consultatif International Telephonique et Telegraphique (CCITT) and to original techniques ...

Single-mode fiber-optic demultiplexer
Soviet Journal of Quantum Electronics, 1987A study was made of the properties of fused single-mode biconical couplers fabricated in a high-frequency electric discharge. A multiplexer–demultiplexer was constructed for the first time with an interval of 1.5 nm between the channels, channel isolation of 20 dB, and excess losses of 0.2 dB.

Nonmechanical optical switch for single-mode fibers
Applied Optics, 1982This paper introduces a bistable nonmechanical optical switch for single-mode optical fibers. A l-input/2-output device for the l-microm wavelength range, the optical losses of the switch are independent of the polarization state in the input fiber. The insertion losses for the optical signal from the input fiber to the output fiber are 1.4 dB and the ...

All-chalcogenide single-mode optical fiber couplers
Optics Letters, 2019We demonstrate the fabrication of all chalcogenide single-mode optical fiber couplers including broadband couplers, wavelength division multiplexers, and polarization beamsplitters. The functionality of each coupler is engineered with a careful design of geometry. As a result, broadband couplers can be set to any arbitrary coupling ratio.

Characterization of single-mode optical fiber filters
Applied Optics, 1981The fabrication of narrowband highly reflecting filters in single-mode step-index fibers was reported recently by Hill et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 32, 647 (1978)]. The underlying effect on which these filters are based is a photoinduced refractive-index change in the GeO(2) used as a core dopant in SiO(2) fibers.

Polarization optics of twisted single-mode fibers
Applied Optics, 1979In twisted single-mode optical fibers the polarization of light is affected by an elastooptically induced optical activity and by a modification of any linear birefringence present. These effects are discussed theoretically and demonstrated experimentally. The activity/twist ratio is alpha/tau approximately 0.13 ...

Single mode optical fiber sensors
1995Single mode fibers are used for sensing when extreme sensitivity is required or when a well defined polarization of light is needed at a remote sensing point. Most sensors which use single mode fibers are of the intrinsic type (i.e. the action of the measurand on the light occurs within the fiber itself). The sensitivity advantage of single mode fibers
