Polarization induced non-reciprocal phase controlled all-fiber loop mirror based inclinometer
摘要： An optical fiber inclinometer based on non-reciprocal phase change effect in a single-mode fiber loop mirror (FLM) is proposed. The phase of light waves in FLM is controlled by two-phase shifters (PSs). The relationship between the inclination angles and phase differences of the two-PSs, and transmitted light power was derived by Jones calculus. The signature of the birefringence obtained through simulation on the output light has been confirmed by experimentation. From the results, it was found that when the birefringence of the two-PSs are different, two measurement sensitivities (17.07 × 10?3 deg?1 and 21.37 × 10?3 deg?1) can be realized with one angle measurement system. We also report a method for changing measurable ranges, and measurement sensitivity. Since the angle can be directly measured from the transmitted light power, the results of this work contribute to the realization of simple and low-loss inclinometers using standard single-mode fiber.

Helical Long-Period Gratings Inscribed in Polarization-Maintaining Fibers by CO2-Laser
摘要： We demonstrate fabrication of helical long-period gratings (HLPGs) in a polarization-maintaining fiber using CO2-laser. The maximum polarization dependent loss (PDL) of the grating was measured to be more than 30 dB at the resonance wavelength. The HLPG was found to have a high index sensitivity of -7248.6 nm/RIU when the surrounding refractive index changes in the range of 1.4470-1.4600, temperature sensitivity of 158.8 pm/°C, and strain sensitivity of 3.17 pm/με. The twist sensitivities based on intensity variation were measured to be 5.98 dB/ (rad/m) (co-directional twist) and -5.97 dB/ (rad/m) (contra-directional twist), respectively. The demonstrated grating devices have promising applications as high-sensitivity fiber sensors, PDL compensator etc.

High Sensitivity Polarimetric Optical Fiber Pressure Sensor Based on Tapered Polarization-Maintaining and Fiber Bragg Grating
摘要： In this paper, we propose a high sensitivity polarimetric optical fiber pressure sensor (OFPS) using a polarization-diversity loop composed of a polarization beam splitter, polarization controllers, and a sensor head. The sensor head consists of 8-cm-long tapered panda-type polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) and a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) directly spliced with PMF, and the sensor head is located inside a pressure chamber. A pressure-induced birefringence change due to the photoelastic effect can be greatly enhanced at the tapered section of PMF, thereby increasing the pressure sensitivity of the sensor head. The tapered PMF was fabricated using a fusion splicer, and the tapered length and center waist diameter of the tapered PMF segment were ～350 and ～56.82 μm, respectively. At the polarization-diversity loop, PMF is used as a birefringent element to create an interference spectrum due to polarization interference. A pressure-induced birefringence change of PMF results in a wavelength shift of the interference spectrum. Because the PMF birefringence also has a cross sensitivity to temperature, the FBG is utilized for the compensation of the temperature effect on it. The resonance wavelength of the FBG is sensitive to ambient temperature changes but insensitive to changes in pressure. This spectral response of the FBG can be used to compensate additional ambient temperature changes occurred at the sensor head. The pressure sensitivity of our sensor was measured as approximately ?27.70 nm/MPa, and an adjusted R2 value representing the sensor linearity was measured as ～0.9903 in a measurement range of 0–0.5 MPa. Our fabricated sensor exhibits the highest pressure sensitivity among previously reported polarimetric OFPS.

Lorentzian demodulation algorithm for multimode polymer optical fiber Bragg gratings
摘要： For strain sensing applications, we develop a simple and accurate Lorentzian demodulation algorithm for fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) inscribed in multimode optical fibers. As multimode FBG spectra generally exhibit multiple peaks, simply tracking some particular spectral peaks (i.e., maximum detection) results in measurement failure when the strain is large. Here, using an FBG inscribed in a perfluorinated graded-index multimode polymer optical fiber, we experimentally evaluate the new method by comparing its performance with those of other demodulation algorithms, such as the maximum and centroid detection methods. Finally, using this method, we demonstrate the accurate measurement of strain of up to 1.0%.

Optical fiber magnetic field sensor based on birefringence in liquid core optical waveguide
摘要： An optical fiber magnetic field sensor based on the birefringence of magnetic fluid is proposed by filling the magnetic fluid into a hollow-core waveguide. The birefringence characteristics of magnetic fluids with different concentrations tuned by magnetic field were investigated under different magnetic fields when the filled hollow-core waveguide is placed in a Sagnac loop. As the magnetic field increases, the internal chain-like structure of the magnetic fluid increases, resulting in changes in birefringence. The experimental results show that the device has a highly linear response to the variation of magnetic field intensity in the range of 0–300 Oe with the maximum sensitivity of 29.2 pm/Oe and resolution of 0.68 Oe. The proposed magnetic field sensor has such advantages as ease of fabrication, simple structure, low cost and it is expected to find potential applications in the magnetic field measurement with high accuracy, optical fiber gyroscopes, magneto-optic modulators and so on. Due to the external field tunability, the device also provides a promising technology for microfluidics research.

Passively Q-switched and mode-locked Tm-Ho co-doped fiber laser using a WS2 saturable absorber fabricated by chemical vapor deposition
摘要： We demonstrate a passively Q-switched and mode-locked Tm-Ho co-doped fiber laser based on a WS2 saturable absorber (SA) fabricated by chemical vapor deposition method. When the pump power increases from 0.32 W to 0.38 W, the repetition rate of the Q-switched laser pulse increases 47.1 kHz to 90.1 kHz and the pulse width decreases from 6.2 μs to 1.7 μs. In addition, the mode-locking operation can also be observed by adjusting the polarization controller (PC) and mode-locked laser pulses at 1883.2 nm can be achieved at a high pump power between 0.5 W and 0.64 W. The pulse duration is 1.07 ns and repetition rate is 23.8 MHz and the pulse is the longest mode-locked pulse with WS2-SA ever reported.

Alternated Q-switched and gain-switched dual-pulse Yb fiber laser with Tm-Ho co-doped fiber as saturable absorber
摘要： We demonstrate a dual-wavelength and dual-pulse Yb-doped fiber laser with a Tm-Ho co-doped fiber as saturable absorber (SA). The wavelength of the first pulse in the dual-pulsing output is at 1064 nm generated via SA-induced self Q-switching and the second pulse is at 2127.7 nm and generated by gain-switching with the laser at 1064 nm as the pump for the Tm ions in the Tm-Ho co-doped fiber and thus induced stimulated emission. With the increases of the pump power, the pulse duration of the two pulses is decreased depending on the level of the pump. The pulse duration of the laser at 1064 nm decreases from 1.4 μs to 296 ns when the pump power increases from 275 mW to 475 mW, while the pulse duration at 2127.7 nm is reduced from 440 ns to 246 ns when the pump increases from 300 mW to 475 mW. Accordingly, the repetition rate is decreased from 17.4 kHz to 6.8 kHz. The experimental result shows that Tm-Ho co-doped fiber is an excellent candidate for SA-induced Q-switching at 1064 nm.

Graphene Heterostructure Integrated Optical Fiber Bragg Grating for Light Motion Tracking and Ultrabroadband Photodetection from 400 nm to 10.768 μm
摘要： Integrated photonics and optoelectronics devices based on graphene and related 2D materials are at the core of the future industrial revolution, facilitating compact and flexible nanophotonic devices. Tracking and detecting the motion of broadband light in millimeter to nanometer scale is an unfold science which has not been fully explored. In this work, tracking and detecting the motion of light (millimeter precision) is first demonstrated by integrating graphene with an optical fiber Bragg grating device (graphene-FBG). When the incident light moves toward and away from the graphene-FBG device, the Bragg wavelength red-shifts and blue-shifts, indicating its light motion tracking ability. Such light tracking capability can be further extended to an ultrabroad wavelength range as all-optical photodetectors show the robust response from 400 nm to 10.768 μm with a linear optical response. Interestingly, it is found that graphene-Bi2Te3 heterostructure on FBG shows 87% higher photoresponse than graphene-FBG at both visible and telecom wavelengths, due to stronger phonon-electron coupling and photo-thermal conversion in the heterostructure. The device also shows superior stability even after 100 d. This work may open up amazing integrated nanophotonics applications such as astrophysics, optical communication, optical computing, optical logic gating, spectroscopy, and laser biology.

摘要： A hybrid structure of no-core fiber and graded-index multimode fiber (NCF-GIMF) is demonstrated, which can be used as both the saturable absorber (SA) and the wavelength selective element. By employing such a device, an L-band wavelength tunable Er-doped mode-locked laser is realized and stable single solitons of ~1.7ps, with continuously tunable wavelengths from 1574 nm to 1601.1 nm, are generated. Moreover, dual-wavelength mode-locked laser operation at 1575.4 nm and 1603 nm is achieved, with pulse duration of 1.2 ps and 1.7 ps, respectively. The proposed device is simple and compact, and represents an effective approach for tunable and dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser operation.
