The unsteady-state thermal conduction process in single-mode optical fiber was studied theoretically with the explicit finite-difference method. We assumed that the vitreous silica optical fiber underwent pyrolysis at elevated temperatures to form SiOx (x~1). We also proposed a model in which the optical absorption coefficient of the core layer increased with increasing molar concentration of SiOx. The core-center temperature changed suddenly and reached over 3×104 K when a 1.064-μm laser power of 2 W was input into a short core layer of 40 μm length, which was heated at 2923 K. This thermal wave, that is, a fiber fuse, increased in size and propagated toward the light source at a rate of about 0.54 m/s. The calculated propagation velocity of the fiber fuse was in agreement with the experimental value. Moreover, the average temperature of the radiated region of the core layer gradually approached a temperature of about 5700 K. It was found that the final average temperature was close to the experimentally reported values.

The evolution of a fiber-fuse phenomenon in a single-mode optical fiber was studied theoretically. To clarify both the silica-glass densification and cavity formation, which have been observed in fiber fuse propagation, we investigated a nonlinear oscillation model using the Van Der Pol equation. This model was able to phenomenologically explain both the densification of the core material and the formation of periodic cavities in the core layer as a result of a relaxation oscillation.

The research was conducted by analyzing the optical fiber attenuation of the DWDM performance in terms of power received on optical fiber communication systems link Padang-Lubuk cone in PT. Telkom Padang. Optical fiber has a very small damping. Therefore optical fibers become the primary choice in telecommunications networks. To improve the transmission quality is better then the use of DWDM technology, DWDM technology is a method to insert a number of channels were transmitted in a single optical fiber. Instruments in this study is the Power Meter and OTDR JDSU MTS-2000 type, the type of cable used G.655 Single Mode type. Link Power Budget method is used to determine the performance of DWDM caused by attenuation based on the value of the received power output receiver. On the link Padang - Lubuk cone highest attenuation occurs in core 1 of 29.742dB with 100.035 km cable lengths, and the core 10 of 31.8 dB with 119.998 km cablelengths. Based on the large fault or attenuation/km core 1 of 0.297 dB/km, the core 10 of 0.265 dB/km and the standard ITU-T was 0.35 dB/km. Value attenuation/km core 1 and core 10 is still in normal conditions and under standard ITU-T 0.35 dB/km. Based on optical fiber attenuation, the results of analysis of the link power budget is the value of Rx is smaller than the value of Rx sensitivity of -27 dBm, it can be said performance DWDM optical fiber communication systems in normal and can be used to operate because the power output can still be accepted by receiver in the device. Keywords:optical fiber cable, optical fiber attenuation, DWDM, link power budget.

We demonstrate a three-port, light guiding and routing T-shaped configuration based on the combination of whispering gallery modes (WGMs) and micro-structured optical fibers (MOFs). This system includes a single mode optical fiber taper (SOFT), a slightly tapered MOF and a BaTiO3 microsphere for efficient light coupling and routing between these two optical fibers. The BaTiO3 glass microsphere is semi-immersed into one of the hollow capillaries of the MOF taper, while the single mode optical fiber taper is placed perpendicularly to the latter and in contact with the equatorial region of the microsphere. Experimental results are presented for different excitation and reading conditions through the WGM microspherical resonator, namely, through single mode optical fiber taper or the MOF. The experimental results indicate that light coupling between the MOF and the single mode optical fiber taper is facilitated at specific wavelengths, supported by the light localization characteristics of the BaTiO3 glass microsphere, with spectral Q-factors varying between 4.5 × 103 and 6.1 × 103, depending on the port and parity excitation.

AbstractIn this work, an experimental analysis of the performance of different types of quasi-randomly distributed reflectors inscribed into a single-mode fiber as a sensing mirror is presented. These artificially-controlled backscattering fiber reflectors are used in short linear cavity fiber lasers. In particular, laser emission and sensor application features are analyzed when employing optical tapered fibers, micro-drilled optical fibers and 50 μm-waist or 100 μm-waist micro-drilled tapered fibers (MDTF). Single-wavelength laser with an output power level of about 8.2 dBm and an optical signal-to-noise ratio of 45 dB were measured when employing a 50 μm-waist micro-drilled tapered optical fiber. The achieved temperature sensitivities were similar to those of FBGs; however, the strain sensitivity improved more than one order of magnitude in comparison with FBG sensors, attaining slope sensitivities as good as 18.1 pm/με when using a 50 μm-waist MDTF as distributed reflector.

This article ls with the issues related to the development of a system for monitoring the deformation and displacement of the rock mass leading to the collapse of the quarry sides. Monitoring system uses point-to-point fiber-optic sensors. Fiber-optic sensors and control cables of the communication line are made based on the single mode optical fibers, which allows to measure with high accuracy the deformations and displacements of the rock mass at a distance of 30-50 km. To create fiber-optic pressure sensors, an optical fiber of the ITU-T G. 652.D standard is used. Laboratory sample is developed concerning the point fiber-optic sensor made based on the two-arm Mach-Zender interferometer using a single mode optical fiber for monitoring strain (displacements) with a change in the sensitivity and a reduced influence of temperature interference leading to zero drift. The article presents a mathematical apparatus for calculating the intensity of radiation of a light wave passing through an optical fiber with and without mechanical stress. A laboratory sample of single mode optical fibers based on the Mach-Zender interferometer showed a fairly high linearity and accuracy in the measurement and can be used to control the strain of the mass after appropriate refinement of its design. Mathematical expressions are also given for determining the intensity of the light wave when the distance between the fixing points of a single mode optical fiber changes depending on the change in the external temperature. A diagram for measuring strain using a point fiber-optic strain sensor is developed. Hardware and software package is developed, which can be used to perform a number of settings of measuring channels. The work is aimed at solving the production problems of the Kenzhem quarry of AK Altynalmas JSC.

ABSTRACTHigh-bandwidth graded-index (GI) polymer optical fiber (POF) and single-mode POF with good mechanical properties were successfully obtained by our interfacial-gel polymerization technique. The bandwidth of the GI POF is about 1 GHz · km which is two hundred times larger than that of the conventional step-index (SI) POF. The minimum attenuation of transmission is 56 dB/km at 688-nm wavelength and 94 dB/km at 780-nm wavelength. The single-mode POF in which the core diameter was 3–15 μ m and the attenuation of transmission was 200 dB/km at 652-nm wavelength was successfully obtained for the first time.

To improve the propagation quality in photonic crystal fibers,a novel dual elliptical assistant holes hollow fiber is proposed. Numerical model of confinement loss has been modeled by vector finite element method, then the core loss characteristics and the power ratio of the hollow fiber has been simulated and analyzed. The results show that the x-polarization confinement loss and the core power ratio are 0.06dB/m and 98.2% at 1550nm, respectively. By contrast, the y-polarization confinement loss is up to 243.34dB/m while the core power ratio is 47.86%. The novel optical fiber exhibits good single polarization characteristics and transmission characteristics, and the bandwidth range of single mode single polarization is 55nm. The novel optical fiber is very good to satisfy the requirement of single mode single polarization at the 1550nm.

The test has been successfully carried out on optical fibers to be used as a macrobending tilt sensor using SMF-28 single mode optical fiber. The optical fiber was molded with silicon rubber, then connected to a laser light and a power meter to see the intensity of the laser power produced. The principle is carried out using the macro bending phenomenon on single mode optical fibers, where the laser light intensity in the fiber optic cable will decrease if there is a bend or bending in the fiber optic cable. We can observe the power loss resulting from the macro bending process to find out how sensitive the optical fiber is to changes in a given angle. The resulting optical fiber sensitivity value is -0.1534o/dBm.

Shaped optical fiber tips have recently attracted a lot of interest for photonic jet light focusing due to their easy manipulation to scan a sample. However, lensed optical fibers are not new. This study analyzes how fiber tip parameters can be used to control focusing properties. Our study shows that the configurations to generate a photonic jet (PJ) can clearly be distinguished from more classical-lensed fibers focusing. PJ is a highly concentrated, propagative light beam, with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) that can be lower than the diffraction limit. According to the simulations, the PJs are obtained when light is coupled in the guide fundamental mode and when the base diameter of the microlens is close to the core diameter. For single mode fibers or fibers with a low number of modes, long tips with a relatively sharp shape achieve PJ with smaller widths. On the contrary, when the base diameter of the microlens is larger than the fiber core, the focus point tends to move away from the external surface of the fiber and has a larger width. In other words, the optical system (fiber/microlens) behaves in this case like a classical-lensed fiber with a larger focus spot size. The results of this study can be used as guidelines for the tailored fabrication of shaped optical fiber tips according to the targeted application.
