Unlike traditional sensing schemes which rely on discrete point sensors that perform measurements at predetermined positions, distributed optical fiber sensing is a general technique that enables to continuously gather information (typically temperature an ...
Textile electronics embedded in clothing represent an exciting new frontier for modern healthcare and communication systems. Fundamental to the development of these textile electronics is the development of the fibers forming the cloths into electronic dev ...
How does one study the evolution of the Milky Way, or the expansion of the Universe, or explore the mysteries of Dark energy? To investigate these complex topics, astronomers require data, and a great deal of it, in the form of the spectra of stars, galaxi ...
Standard multimode optical fibers normally support transmission over some 100 modes. Large differences in the propagation constant and the spatial distribution of distinct modes degrade the performance of phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry m ...
For various types of civil structures such as bridges, skyscrapers and other slender towers, oil rigs as well as runaways, dynamic loading is predominant. This holds true especially for bridges where loads have increased considerably in the last hundred ye ...
A novel fiber-interface directional waveguide coupler was inscribed on the surface of a coreless fiber by femtosecond laser, and was successfully applied to highly sensitive refractive index (RI) measurements. The primary arm was first inscribed to couple ...
Fiber endoscopy plays an important role in the clinical diagnosis and treatment processes involved in modern medicine. Thin fiber probes can relay information from confined places in the human body that are inaccessible for conventional bulky microscopes. ...
Time-energy entangled photon pairs are fundamental resources for quantum communication protocols since they are robust against environmental fluctuations in optical fiber networks. Pair sources based on spontaneous four-wave mixing in silicon microring res ...
We experimentally verify the possibility of measuring the difference in effective refractive index between higher-order-modes using a phase-sensitive OTDR, indicating that it is possible to measure the average difference over long fiber spans. ...
Resonant and non-resonant effects in few-mode fibers have found use in versatile devices. From sensing perspective, extensive research has been done on fringe sensitivity of nonresonant two-mode interference. Resonant mode converter gratings are promising ...
