Real space observation of two-dimensional Bloch wave interferences in a negative index photonic crystal cavity
2008
We report here the direct observation of two-dimensional (2D) Bloch wave interferences in a negative index photonic crystal by using optical near-field microscopy techniques. The photonic crystal is formed by a defectless honeycomb lattice of air holes etched in III-V semiconductor slab. A scanning near-field optical microscope is used to visualize spatially, as well as spectrally, the light distribution inside the photonic crystal. The recorded near-field spectra and maps presented here unambiguously demonstrate the Bloch wave interferences within the photonic crystal. Then, the spectral and spatial evolution of these interferences allows us to recover experimentally the 2D band diagram of…
THE GYROTRON STARTUP SCENARIO IN THE SINGLE MODE TIME DEPENDENT APPROACH
2019
The paper explains how to solve the Gyrotron equation system in the Single Mode Time Dependent Approach. In particular, we point out problems encountered when solving these well-known equations. The starting current estimation approach a using time model is suggested. The solution has been implemented in the Matlab code, which is attached to the article.
Nonlinear femtosecond pulse propagation in an all-solid photonic bandgap fiber
2009
Nonlinear femtosecond pulse propagation in an all-solid photonic bandgap fiber is experimentally and numerically investigated. Guiding light in such fiber occurs via two mechanisms: photonic bandgap in the central silica core or total internal reflection in the germanium doped inclusions. By properly combining spectral filtering, dispersion tailoring and pump coupling into the fiber modes, we experimentally demonstrate efficient supercontinuum generation with controllable spectral bandwidth.
Vector FWM in optical fibers: tuning techniques and applications
2022
Recientemente, el efecto no lineal de mezcla de cuatro ondas (FWM) en fibras ópticas ha atraído un gran interés para el desarrollo de nuevas fuentes de luz de fibra óptica debido a la emisión de luz múltiple producida por este efecto no lineal. En los últimos años, estas fuentes de luz basadas en FWM han demostrado una gran utilidad en áreas como la óptica cuántica y la microscopía avanzada basada en efecto Raman. Además, según el estado de polarización de la luz de bombeo responsable del efecto FWM y la birrefringencia de la fibra, la luz producida por FWM puede presentar diferentes propiedades de polarización dada la naturaleza vectorial de FWM. Esto posibilita el diseño y desarrollo de f…
Synthesis and characterization of chalcogenide glasses from the system Ga-Ge-Sb-S and preparation of a single-mode fiber at 1.55 μm
2008
International audience; The aim of this work is to study different compositions in the Ga-Ge-Sb-S system for the definition of two compositions compatible with the elaboration of a single-mode fiber at the 1.55 μm telecom wavelength. The variations of the glass transition temperature (Tg), the dilatation coefficient (α) and the refractive index (n) have been studied for two glasses series: GaxGe25−xSb10S65 (series 1), Ga5Ge25−xSb10S60+x (series 2). This study has lead to the choice of the Ga4Ge21Sb10S65 composition as clad glass for the preparation of the single-mode fiber and Ga5Ge20Sb10S65 composition as the core. The discrepancies for the studied parameters between the core and clad comp…
Neutron-induced defects in F-doped fibers
2014
We present a study on 0.8 MeV neutron-induced defects up to fluences of 1017 n/cm² in fluorine doped fibers by using electron paramagnetic resonance, optical absorption and confocal micro-luminescence techniques. Our results allow to address the microscopic mechanisms leading to the generation of some Silica-related point-defects such as E’, H(I), POR and NBOH Centers.
Waveguiding properties of a photonic crystal fiber with a solid core surrounded by four large air holes
2009
The polarization-dependent guiding properties of a hexagonal-lattice photonic crystal fiber with a solid-core surrounded by four large air holes are investigated. The appearance of a polarization dependent cutoff frequency, together with several parameters as the birefringence, the modal effective area, the group velocity dispersion and the polarization dependent loss are analyzed. A collection of fibers with different structural parameters were fabricated and characterized. An effective anti-guide structure from at least 450 nm to 1750 nm, a polarizing fiber with a polarization dependent loss of 16 dB/m at 1550 nm, and an endlessly singlemode polarization-maintaining fiber with group biref…
<title>Fibers supporting super-Gaussian beams: cladding effects</title>
1996
We define a matching function that describes the amplitude variations produced over supergaussian beams, by cladding optical fibers that, if uncladded, can sustain this type of beams as Eigenmodes.
2017
Tailored tellurite-glasses possess excellent thermo-viscous ability and linear/nonlinear optical properties. Here, bringing together the merits of these materials with fiber optic technology, we report on the first tellurite-based core-clad dual-electrode composite fiber made by direct, homothetic preform-to-fiber thermal co-drawing. The rheological and optical properties of the selected glasses allow both to regulate the metallic melting flow and to manage the refractive index core/clad waveguide profile. We demonstrate the electrical continuity of the electrodes over meters of fiber. We believe the drawing of architectures merging electrical and optical features in a unique elongated wave…
