The sol-gel technology offers highly interesting prospects for fiber fabrication. The main advantage is the possibility to incorporate any dopants and co-dopants soluble in a suitable solvent. Generally, these dopants are homogeneously dissolved in the mat ...
We demonstrate experimentally that a wide control of the group velocity of light can be achieved in conventional optical fibers by use of the stimulated Brillouin scattering effect. ...
Brillouin slow light in optical fibers is a promising technique for the development of all-optical buffers to be used in optical routers. The main drawback of this technique up to now has been its narrow bandwidth, normally restricted to 35 MHz in conventi ...
We demonstrate experimentally that negative group velocities of light can be achieved in conventional optical fibers by use of the stimulated Brillouin scattering effect. Velocities as slow as 71000 km/s can also be achieved. ...
The accurate mapping of chromatic-dispersion distribution along single-mode optical fibers with the best spatial resolution ever reported is experimentally demonstrated. The method consists of a new way of probing four-wave-mixing (FWM) efficiency along th ...
We demonstrate a method to achieve an extremely wide and flexible external control of the group velocity of signals as they propagate along an optical fiber. This control is achieved by means of the gain and loss mechanisms of stimulated Brillouin scatteri ...
An optical fiber sensor is designed to simultaneously measure strain and temperature in an adaptive composite material. The sensor is formed by splicing two fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) close to each other, which are written in optical fibers with different ...
An optical fiber sensor to simultaneously measure strain and temperature was designed and embedded into an adaptive composite laminate which exhibits a shape change upon thermal activation. The sensor is formed by two fiber Bragg gratings, which are writte ...
We experimentally demonstrate that Brillouin slow light with an arbitrary large bandwidth can be readily obtained in conventional optical fibers using a simple and inexpensive pump spectral broadening technique ...
Stimulated Brillouin scattering makes possible the generation of synthesized gain spectra, so that innovative slow light schemes can be realized, ranging from broadband tunable delays to a zero-gain situation identical to an ideal electromagnetically-induc ...
