Book Design of Microstructured Fibers for Hollow Core Guidance

Download or read book Design of Microstructured Fibers for Hollow Core Guidance written by Guangrui Li and published by . This book was released on 2022* with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instead of the traditional index guidance, microstructured fibers can guide light in a core of refractive index lower than that of its cladding using mechanisms like photonic band gap guidance, inhibited coupling guidance and anti-resonant guidance. Their guidance is usually leaky and depends on the photonic properties of their structured cladding. Specifically, photonic band gap guidance is possible with photonic crystals, whose photonic band gaps appear below the refractive index index of the core. Guidance in a low-index core or hollow core guidance, is of interest for applications in the fields of bioanalytic, quantum gas, lasers and others that involve interacting of the light with confined matter of low refractive index. My work is aimed at investigating the possibility of hollow core guidance with an all-solid microstructured cladding. Ideally, such a hollow core waveguide is expected to have obvious guidance advantages over capillaries. Besides, it also surpasses the holey hollow core band gap fibers in the optofluidic applications by avoiding undesired penetration of the liquid into the cladding channels. To achieve the design of the ideal hollow core waveguide, I developed two models for all relevant modes in microstructured fibers: an analytical method with binary functions and a reflection-based planar model. While the binary functions for photonic band gap is more about ideal periodic structures extended into infinite, the reflection and transmission analysis with a reflection-based planar model is more practical to be used for waveguides with finite periodic structures and deliberately induced disorder.

Book Plastic Optical Fiber Sensors

Download or read book Plastic Optical Fiber Sensors written by Marcelo M. Werneck and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-25 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plastic Optical Fiber Sensors cover the fundamentals and applications of a new class of fiber sensors. With contributions from leading academics in the area, this book covers the theory of plastic optical fiber sensors or (POFs), as well as applications in oil, gas, biotechnology, and energy fields. Using multiple examples, the editors showcase the advantageous characteristics of POFs, such as ease of handling, large diameter, inexpensive peripheral components and simple termination tools. By doing so, the editors assert that there has been a proliferation of the use of POFs in new consumer products. The book also highlights uses for building various products, such as a POF sensor for oil trucker valve monitoring, a monitoring system for high voltage substation switch, an oil leaking sensor for offshore platforms and a solar tracker for illumination. Including over 300 black and white images, this book would be highly beneficial for professionals in manufacturing as well as academics in universities, particularly those who use optical fiber sensors on a regular basis.

  • ISBN : 1400828244
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book Photonic Crystals written by John D. Joannopoulos and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-30 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it was first published in 1995, Photonic Crystals has remained the definitive text for both undergraduates and researchers on photonic band-gap materials and their use in controlling the propagation of light. This newly expanded and revised edition covers the latest developments in the field, providing the most up-to-date, concise, and comprehensive book available on these novel materials and their applications. Starting from Maxwell's equations and Fourier analysis, the authors develop the theoretical tools of photonics using principles of linear algebra and symmetry, emphasizing analogies with traditional solid-state physics and quantum theory. They then investigate the unique phenomena that take place within photonic crystals at defect sites and surfaces, from one to three dimensions. This new edition includes entirely new chapters describing important hybrid structures that use band gaps or periodicity only in some directions: periodic waveguides, photonic-crystal slabs, and photonic-crystal fibers. The authors demonstrate how the capabilities of photonic crystals to localize light can be put to work in devices such as filters and splitters. A new appendix provides an overview of computational methods for electromagnetism. Existing chapters have been considerably updated and expanded to include many new three-dimensional photonic crystals, an extensive tutorial on device design using temporal coupled-mode theory, discussions of diffraction and refraction at crystal interfaces, and more. Richly illustrated and accessibly written, Photonic Crystals is an indispensable resource for students and researchers. Extensively revised and expanded Features improved graphics throughout Includes new chapters on photonic-crystal fibers and combined index-and band-gap-guiding Provides an introduction to coupled-mode theory as a powerful tool for device design Covers many new topics, including omnidirectional reflection, anomalous refraction and diffraction, computational photonics, and much more.

Book Measurement of Thermal Dependencies of PBG Fiber Properties

Download or read book Measurement of Thermal Dependencies of PBG Fiber Properties written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) represent a class of optical fibers which have a wide spectrum of applications in the telecom and sensing industries. Currently, the Advanced Accelerator Research Department at SLAC is developing photonic bandgap particle accelerators, which are photonic crystal structures with a central defect used to accelerate electrons and achieve high longitudinal electric fields. Extremely compact and less costly than the traditional accelerators, these structures can support higher accelerating gradients and will open a new era in high energy physics as well as other fields of science. Based on direct laser acceleration in dielectric materials, the so called photonic band gap accelerators will benefit from mature laser and semiconductor industries. One of the key elements to direct laser acceleration in hollow core PCFs, is maintaining thermal and structural stability. Previous simulations demonstrate that accelerating modes are sensitive to the geometry of the defect region and the variations in the effective index. Unlike the telecom modes (for which over 95% of the energy propagates in the hollow core) most of the power of these modes is located in the glass at the periphery of the central hole which has a higher thermal constant than air ([gamma]{sub SiO{sub 2}} = 1.19 x 10−6 1/K, [gamma]{sub air} = -9 x 10−7 1/K with [gamma] = dn/dT). To fully control laser driven acceleration, we need to evaluate the thermal and structural consequences of such modes on the PCFs. We are conducting series of interferometric tests to quantify the dependencies of the HC-633-02 (NKT Photonics) propagation constant (k{sub z}) on temperature, vibration amplitude, stress and electric field strength. In this paper we will present the theoretical principles characterizing the thermal behavior of a PCF, the measurements realized for the fundamental telecom mode (TE00), and the experimental demonstration of TM-like mode propagation in the HC-633-02 fiber.
