New Perspectives in High-Power Optical Fiber-Amplifiers and Solid-State Laser Cooling
To overcome the limiting constraints on output powers placed by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and stimulated Brilluoin scattering (SBS), new fiber designs and techniques are presented [1]. Fiber l...

Spectral Response of FBG Written in Specialty Single-Mode Fibers
In this work, we describe the spectral properties of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) in Hi-Bi PANDA fibers subjected to diametrical compression and fibers with internal electrodes, as two examples of the ...

Solidcore photonic bandgap fibres are photonic crystal fibres with asolid core surrounded by high index inclusions. The guidance propertiesof these fibers are very sensitive to the refractive indexof the inclusions, making them widely tunable and making themvery promising for sensing applications. Combining these fibers with longperiod gratings unleashes their full potential, enabling narrow band notchfilters tunable over hundreds of nm, refractive index sensors withsensitivity comparable to that of surface plasmon resonance sensors, butalso the extraction of the full band diagrams of thesebandgap fibres. ©2008 American Institute of Physics
