Raman-assisted BOTDA sensors

Luc Thévenaz

We review some recent results on the application of distributed Raman amplification schemes, including ultralong lasers, to the extension of the operating range and contrast in Brillouin optical time domain analysis (BOTDA) distributed sensing systems. ...

Distributed Brillouin Fiber Sensor Assisted by First-Order Raman Amplification

Luc Thévenaz

Distributed optical fiber Brillouin sensors provide innovative solutions for the monitoring of temperature and strain in large structures. The effective range of these sensors is typically of the order of 20–30 km, which limits their use in certain ...

Photosensitivity and luminescence of chromium and bismuth doped fibers

Christian Ban

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 ...

Optofluidic evanescent dye laser based on a distributed feedback circular grating

Demetri Psaltis, Andreas Vasdekis, Wuzhou Song

We demonstrate an optofluidic evanescent laser based on a solid circular distributed feedback grating with the dye solution acting as the cladding layer. The laser mode is confined within the grating and experiences optical gain via the interaction between ...

Sampling of Multiple 320 Gb/s Channels by Single Parametric Gate

Camille Sophie Brès

All-optical multicasting of a 320-Gb/s intensitymodulated return-to-zero signal with subsequent simultaneous sampling by a single parametric gate is experimentally demonstrated. The architecture used a two-pump broadband fiber-optic parametric amplifier fo ...
