A single failure in a communication network may trigger many alarms. When the communication network uses optical fibres as a transmission medium and increases its capacity by using Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) and Space Division Multiplexing (SDM ...
We describe a new fluorescence imaging device for clin. cancer photodetection in hollow organs in which the tumor/normal tissue contrast is derived from the fluorescence lifetime of endogenous or exogenous fluorochromes. This fluorescence lifetime contrast ...
Integrated optical devices can be fabricated by the deposition of an electrode/piezoelectric/electrode multilayer thin film structure onto optical fibers, The particular structure used in this work is Au/PbTiO3/Pt/Ti, where the PbTiO3 is deposited by DC re ...
The nonlinear refractive index has drawn considerable attention these past few years, because it may significantly perturbate long-range propagation of lightwaves in optical fibers. Two main origins to this nonlinearity have been identified: nonresonant el ...
A novel measurement scheme is presented for injection locking experiments with semiconductor lasers. In the method, the light generated by the master laser travels through an optical fiber before being injected into the cavity of the slave laser. Using the ...
Rare-earth doped fibers can be used to realize simple, compact sources of ultrashort pulses. To date, considerable effort has been developed to obtain short pulse generation in Er3+-doped fiber lasers at 1.55 µm. Contrary to this, little work has bee ...
Piezoelectric ZnO coatings on optical fibers are of interest for active optical-fiber devices such as phase and wavelength modulators. Reactive magnetron sputtering has been used to prepare high-resistivity [001] radially oriented ZnO coatings on 85 mm lon ...
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 ...
Good thermal and mechanical reliability of fiber Bragg gratings are indispensable requirements for telecommunication and sensor applications. The basic model of thermal reliability is reviewed and the lifetime of Bragg gratings in different germanosilicate ...
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 ...
