High Sensitivity Fiber Interferometric Strain Sensors Based on Elongated Fiber Abrupt Tapers

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
We demonstrate high-sensitivity fiber strain sensors based on an elongated abrupt taper. The fiber abrupt taper, with a tapered diameter ranging from 40–60 μm, was made by using a hydrogen microflame to break the waveguide adiabaticity so as to convert ...

On a Mathematical Model for Fiber Tapering

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1989
A simple extensional model for tapering optical glass fibers is derived and analysed. It is shown that, in the absence of surface tension effects, unless the initial fiber has certain spatial singularities, then the cross sectional area of the fiber cannot be made to vanish in finite time.

2 μm passively mode-locked thulium-doped fiber lasers with Ta2AlC-deposited tapered and side-polished fibers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In this work, mode-locked thulium-doped fiber lasers operating in the 2 µm wavelength region were demonstrated using tantalum aluminum carbide (Ta2AlC)-based saturable absorbers (SAs) utilizing the evanescent wave interaction.

Photonic crystal fiber half-taper probe based refractometer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A compact singlemode - photonic crystal fiber - singlemode fiber tip (SPST) refractive index sensor is demonstrated in this paper. A CO2 laser cleaving technique is utilised to provide a clean-cut fiber tip which is then coated by a layer of gold to ...

Tapering fibers with complex shape

open access: yesOptics Express, 2010
We present a model which allows us to accurately simulate the fabrication process of complex-shaped tapered fibers. The range of possible profiles is only limited by the properties of the heat source used to shape the fiber. The model takes into account the motion of the heat source relative to the fiber as well as its temperature distribution.

Performance Analysis of the Four-Wave Mixing Effect with Various Tapered Fiber Waist Diameters

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
In this work, we report the use of different waist diameters of tapered fiber to generate a four-wave mixing (FWM) effect. The FWM conversion efficiencies obtained from the tapered fiber with 10 µm, 20 µm, and 30 µm waist diameters were −37.81 dB, −38.50

A 5 kW Nearly-Single-Mode Monolithic Fiber Laser Emitting at ~1050 nm Employing Asymmetric Bi-Tapered Ytterbium-Doped Fiber

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
Limited by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and transverse mode instability (TMI), it is challenging to achieve high-power laser output in ytterbium-doped fiber (YDF) lasers with operating wavelengths less than 1060

Numerical modelling on stimulated Brillouin scattering characterization for Graphene-clad tapered silica fiber

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
This paper presents finite numerical modelling on the cross-sectional region of tapered single mode fiber and graphene-clad tapered fiber. Surface acoustic wave propagation across the tapered surface region on tapered single mode fiber has a high ...

Transmittance of tapered photonic crystal fibers with absorbing coatings [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
The interaction of the adiabatically tapered photonic crystal fiber fundamental mode with a thin-film absorbing coating, deposited on a surface of a taper waist, on transmission of a tapered fiber is studied.
