A fiber-based flexural actuator was developed using a patterned piezoelectric ZnO/electrode fiber coating on a standard telecommunications optical fiber. The actuator was composed of a concentric inner Cr/Au electrode, a thick sputtered ZnO coating, and an ...
A new class of active fiber devices based on piezoelectric coated optical fibers is currently being developed. The piezoelectric coating is used to produce acoustic waves within the optical fiber and these acoustic waves interfere with optical signals pass ...
Brillouin-gain-spectrum measurement along an optical fiber has recently gained a lot of interest owing to its potential for strain monitoring in installed cables and for distributed temperature sensing. We present a method that has the following advantages ...
A novel configuration is presented here, based on the pump and probe technique, that has the following advantages: 1) few optical elements are required, 2) a single laser source is used, 3) a single fiber end is accessed, 4) only pulsed signals propagate. ...
The authors describe an optical fiber link that is used in conjunction with the CERN host interface family to connect high-performance VAXes to VMEbus or FASTBUS over distances up to 1000 m. The modular construction allows other permutations, including VAX ...
A method to determine the individual strain-optic coefficients in single-mode fibers is described. It is based on two photoelastic experiments, namely, the polarimetric measurement of optical activity induced by mechanical twist and the interferometric mea ...
Stretchable optical and electronic fibers constitute increasingly important building blocks for a myriad of applications, particularly in robotics, soft prosthesis, surgical tools and implants, and smart medical textiles. The integration of multimaterial a ...
Brillouin gain spectrum measurement along an optical fiber has recently gained a lot of interests owing to its potentiality for strain monitoring in installed telecom cables. The purpose of the paper is to show that this potentiality is now effective, sinc ...
Considerable efforts are presently being made to improve miniaturization of optical devices and to achieve at the same time submicron assembly precision. Several groups are working on concepts based on passive alignment techniques (ex. integrated waveguide ...
