Surface Plasmon Resonance Based Highly Selective Fiber Optic Dopamine Sensor Fabricated Using Molecular Imprinted GNP/SnO <sub/>2</sub> Nanocomposite
摘要： Fabrication and characterization of a highly selective fiber optic surface plasmon resonance-based dopamine sensor using molecular imprinted graphene nanoplatelets/tin oxide (SnO2) nanocomposite have been reported. The synthesis of sensing layer has been carried out using a series of optimizations and morphological studies. The effectiveness of the sensing layer over other possible probe designs has been proved by performing control experiments for a dopamine concentration range covering the suggested level of dopamine for human being. The limit of detection (LOD) of the sensor evaluated is 0.031 μM, which is lower than the LOD values of various dopamine sensors fabricated using different methods. The specificity of the sensor for dopamine has been confirmed by performing experiments using various interferands while the stability and reusability of the sensor probe have been checked by performing experiments repeatedly for a long period of time. Apart from high sensitivity, low LOD, and fast response, the sensor can be used for remote sensing and online monitoring of dopamine.

A highly sensitive photocatalytic plastic optic-fiber sensor for selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions
摘要： We present a highly sensitive photocatalytic plastic optic-fiber (POF) sensor for the selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions. To obtain high sensitivity and low limit of detection (LOD) of the sensor, part of the POF cladding was removed and replaced by a Canada balsam doped with GeO2 (CBG); a UV-visible-light-driven photocatalytic material, that is a CdS-sensitized Er3+YAlO3/SiO2/TiO2 (EYST) composite, was coated on the CBG film. To realize highly selective detection of phenol in water, a high phenol permselectivity and pH independence polymer membrane was fixed on the CdS-sensitized EYST-CBG-coated POF. Furthermore, a model was developed to show that the phenol concentration can be determined by measuring the change in transmitted light intensity of the POF sensor and the sensitivity of the sensors can be improved by employing the CdS-sensitized EYST film. The results showed that the proposed photocatalytic POF sensor has a high sensitivity of -0.39 (mg·mL-1)-1 and low LOD of 15 μg·L-1 for the selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions with pH ranging from 2.0 to 14.0.

The Effect of Physical and Geometric Parameters on the Surface Plasmon Resonance Response of a Fiber Optic Biosensor: Sensitivity Analysis and Numerical Optimization
摘要： The study of the influence of optical and geometric parameters on the spectral response of the biosensor is an important step towards the optimization of these parameters. In this study, an improved SPR biosensor with a high resolution is proposed. The present SPR biosensor is based on an optical fiber that takes the place of the prism, compared with the conventional configuration, in order to simplify the detection process, overcome the stresses caused by the massive prism and obtain a reliable and efficient miniature device. The modeling procedure is based on a matrix formalism developed for the optical studies of multilayer media. We have discussed the effect of physical and optical parameters on the resonance curves, from the theoretical analysis of the transmitted power. The obtained results show that the response of the biosensor is highly dependent on these parameters. The optimum values of the length of the sensitive area, the core diameter of the optical fiber, the thickness of the metal layer and the refractive index of external environment have been determined.

Polarization-Independent Wavelength-Tunable First-Order Fiber Comb Filter
摘要： Here, we propose a polarization-independent wavelength-tunable first-order fiber comb filter based on a polarization-diversified loop configuration. The proposed filter is composed of a polarization beam splitter, two equal-length high birefringence fiber (HBF) segments, three half-wave retarders (HWRs), and two quarter-wave retarders (QWRs). Among these five wave retarders (WRs), a group of an HWR and a QWR is located in front of each HBF. The third remaining HWR is positioned after the second HBF segment and utilized to adjust the effective orientation angle of this HBF. On the basis of the filter transmittance derived through Jones formulation, orientation angle sets of the five WRs, which can induce an arbitrary phase shift from 0 to 2π in the transmittance function, are found at both flat-top and narrow band transmission spectra. From theoretical transmission spectra obtained at eight selected orientation angle sets of the five WRs, which cause phase shifts increasing linearly from 0 to 7π/4 by a step of π/4, it is confirmed that the flat-top or narrow band comb spectrum can be continuously tuned by properly controlling the WR orientation angles. Then, this theoretical prediction is verified by experimental demonstration. In particular, the spectral evolution of the output states of polarization (SOPs) of the third HWR, the last one of optical components contained within the polarization-diversified loop, is investigated on the Poincare sphere. The relationship of the passband shape and wavelength tuning with the spectral evolution of the SOP is also discussed.

On-chip Optical Vector Quadrature De-multiplexer Proposal for QAM De-aggregation by Single Bi-directional SOA-based Phase-sensitive Amplifier
摘要： In this paper, a simple optical vector quadrature de-multiplexer (QD) scheme is proposed for de-aggregating input 10 Gbaud 16/32/64 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals into two pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) streams. The proposed QD is based on a single bi-directional degenerate phase-sensitive amplifier (PSA), where the wavelength and the polarization status of the extracted in-phase and quadrature components stay the same as the input signal. Since the proposed QD is realized using PSA based on semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), it is also possible to realize an on-chip QD system, providing an integrated platform for optical signal processing. Through numerical simulation, the transfer characteristics of the proposed QD system show that the SOA-based PSA has a high phase-sensitive gain extinction ratio of 44.1 dB. The constellations, error vector magnitudes (EVMs), and bit-error rates (BERs) of the data streams after the de-aggregation are numerically investigated to verify the proposed QD scheme. For the 10 Gbaud 16/32/64 QAM signals with an input optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) of 25 dB, the de-aggregated PAM4/PAM6/PAM8 signals show 6.1, 5.6, and 8.2 dB receiver OSNR improvements at the BER of 10?3, respectively. Also, to optimize the performance of the subsystem, the BER performance dependence on the phase difference between two arms in the subsystem is also examined. The simulation results reveal that the proposed QD can accomplish the function of optical vector de-aggregation well for the high-level QAM signals. The proposed QD can be applied to information de-aggregation, format conversion, and direct detection for optical vector signals, which may have great potential values for the flexible optical networks.

[IEEE 2018 China International SAR Symposium (CISS) - Shanghai (2018.10.10-2018.10.12)] 2018 China International SAR Symposium (CISS) - An Automatically Steering Optical Beam-Forming Network for Phased Array Antenna Based on Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing
摘要： It is proposed an automatically steering optical beam-forming network (OBFN), which is consisted of an optical fiber loop structure. The loop structure is composed by an optical switch, an optical fiber splitter, and an optical true time delay lines based on dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM). The channel number of the DWDM is matched with the number of the phased array antennas (PAA). The true time delay difference between two adjacent channels is set as a basic step. And the optical wave modulated by radio frequency (RF) signal can run into the loop and suffer increased delay with increased circles. Thus the PAA is steered automatically without additional controlling and programming. The performance of this design is analyzed with its maximal circle numbers and the splitting ratio of the optical splitter in theory. The concept-proof experiments with 8 optical channels for DWDM are carried out and the simulation of the PAA radiation pattern is given.

Analogue Wireless Beamforming Exploiting the Fiber-Nonlinearity of Radio Over Fiber Based C-RANs
摘要： As a key technique of supporting the fixed backbone network, radio over fiber (RoF) systems transmit the radio frequency signals over optical fiber in order to take advantage of their large available bandwidth. In this context, optical fiber aided phased antenna array (PAA) based beamforming techniques have attracted substantial research interest with the goal of improving the cell-edge coverage of cellular base stations. In this paper, we conceive a novel optical fiber aided beamforming technique based on the fiber's nonlinearity to be applied in cloud radio access network (C-RAN). In our proposed technique, the PAA elements are fed by the phase-shifted signals introduced by our highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) aided phase-shifting solution, which results in an angular beamsteering range of around 90°. This can be exploited by sectorization in cellular networks to reduce the cochannel interference imposed. Furthermore, we exploit the proposed RoF-aided phase shifting technique in C-RAN, where our proposed system takes advantage of the centralized signal processing capability of the RoF system to conceive an all-optical processing based tunable beamforming system. While our flexible HNLF-aided phase-shifting process is confined to the central office of the C-RAN, the end users in the C-RAN cellular networks are capable of flexibly choosing the serving remote radio heads (RRHs) and employing diverse wireless transmission techniques. Through integrating our HNLF-aided phase-shifting design into the proposed C-RAN, we impose as little as 0.1 dB signal-to-noise Ratio (SNR) degradation compared to its traditional electronic counterpart, which requires extra phase-shifters.

All-fiberized top-hat beam shaper by mode content control and multimode interference suppression
摘要： A new method of all-fiberized top-hat beam shaper based on controlling mode content and suppressing multimode interference is proposed both numerically and experimentally. The sample is fabricated by fusion splicing a predetermined tapered multimode fiber to a nearly single mode fiber. A 2D simulation model to calculate the mode content weight with different taper ratio and taper shape is established, and the output intensity profile in multimode fiber is investigated. Based on the simulation results, we fabricated an all-fiberized beam shaper, achieving a top-hat beam at a taper ratio of 0.51 with parabolic taper shape. The flatness factor of the top-hat beam is measured to be about 0.6. Theoretical results show a good agreement with the experiment results.

In order to realize the temperature measurement in a wide dynamic range, a multi-layer film fiber Bragg grating (MFBG) is fabricated. Due to its multi-layer structure, the MFBG has been widely studied extensively for temperature measurement. Most of its operation principle is based on the variation analysis of the spectrum caused by temperature change. For measuring temperature, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) temperature sensor has been widely used due to its advantages of good insulation, light weight, low cost, compact structure, chemical property and ability to sense in harsh environment.

Study of a large lateral core-offset in-line fiber modal interferometer for refractive index sensing
摘要： A large lateral core-offset in-line fiber modal interferometer was proposed in order to avoid the relative direction of the two core-offset joints affecting the interference performance. The RI sensing performances of the interferometers with different arm lengths were evaluated and compared with the small core-offset ones. The simulation and experimental results showed that the power remaining in the core mode decreased from 25 to 0.002% after the input light passing through the first core-offset joint as the core-offset displacement increased from 6 to 40 μm. Thus, the interference between the core mode and cladding mode within the enlarged core-offset interferometer was suppressed, and meanwhile the interference within the cladding modes was dominated. As the core-offset displacement was simply enlarged from 6 to 40 μm, the RI sensitivity was greatly improved from 43.97 to 123.40 nm/RIU. The proposed sensor is a cost-effective solution for RI sensing purpose, and exhibits the advantages of high sensitivity, simple structure and easy fabrication with only a fusion splicer.
