An ArF excimer laser was used to fabricate Bragg gratings in Bi:SiO2 core - microstructured cladding optical fiber. Average and modulated refractive index changes of 2.7 × 10E-4 and 1.0 × 10E-4 were induced in pristine fiber. Fiber luminescence was also me ...
An ArF excimer laser was used to fabricate Bragg gratings in fibers with Bi-SiO2 core and microstructured or F-doped claddings without fiber presensitization. Average and modulated refractive index changes of 2.7 x 10(-4) and 1.0 x 10(-4) were induced in p ...
This paper gives a personal account of the research and development work at Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. during the first ten years following the first demonstration of semiconductor injection lasers. ...
We report a combined vibrational sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy, Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), and ellipsometry study of different surfactants on water as a function of surfactant density. Vibrational SFG spectra of surfactants on the water ...
Electron beams in modern linear accelerators are now becoming limited in brightness by the intrinsic emittance of the photocathode electron source. Therefore it becomes important for large scale facilities such as free electron lasers to reduce this fundam ...
There has been a very strong development of the sensors based on surface plasmon resonance during the last thirty years, mostly for biological and biomedical applications. If the first experiments in this field were carried out at the beginning of the 20t ...
The formation of short Bragg gratings in SMF-28e non-hydrogen loaded pristine fibre using a cw Ar+ laser operating at 244 nm is reported. Mean refractive index changes >10-3 were obtained for a laser intensity of about 513 W/cm2 and a total dose of 5.9 MJ/ ...
Refractive index changes up to 2.5 × 10-3 were demonstrated in H2-loaded germanium free Bi-Al-doped silica fibers using both ArF excimer and cw-Ar+-244 nm lasers. Tensile stress changes indicate clear contribution of compaction to the total index change. ...
Optical fiber materials with broad-band gain in the visible or in the telecommunication window are of great interest for optical communication or the biomedical domain in order to built integrated tunable lasers, amplifiers, ultra-short pulse lasers, or br ...
Fibers doped with bismuth show broad luminescence bands around 750, 1100, and 1400 nm with spectral bandwidths of 100 to 200 nm at room temperature. The luminescence bands can be observed by pumping broad absorption bands in the visible or near infrared sp ...
