Reflection, transmission and loss filters based on fiber Bragg gratings are key components in future wavelength division multiplexing telecommunication networks. A shift of the Bragg wavelength, λg, can be achieved by applying a strain or heating th ...
A tunable loss filter based on a long-period fiber grating and a Ti/Pt coating is presented Electrical wavelength tuning of 11 nm with an efficiency of 16.4 nm/W and modulation with 2 s rise time were achieved. ...
We report on the application of double-clad doped fiber amplifiers for coherent space communication systems using a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) design at 1.06 μm. The master oscillator is either a single-frequency Nd:YAG solid-state laser or a ...
Two all-fiber wavelength tunable devices, one utilizing thermal tuning and a second based on strain tuning, have been produced by combining resistive Ti/Pt and piezoelectric ZnO fiber coatings with fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). The Ti and Pt coatings with t ...
Hill et al. reported for the first time in 1978 the formation of refractive-index gratings in germanium doped silica fibers exposed to UV laser radiation. Since then many studies have been performed on fiber gratings and a widespread range of applications ...
Two different types of micromirrors are integrated with a fiber laser to modulate the cavity Q-factor. Both systems operate at frequencies up to 60 kHz and generate a pulse peak power 100 times higher than the continuous emission. We simulate the emitted p ...
We report the first demonstration of an extremely simple and efficient 1.24 μm phosphosilicate fiber-based Raman laser with Bragg gratings written directly in the fiber used. The laser pumped by Nd fiber laser exhibits a slope efficiency of 80% ...
