The modulation phase difference of the transmitted light at the wavelength of 1532.16 nm modulated by a radio frequency signal was measured, relative to the transmitted light at the wavelength of 1549.33 nm modulated by the same signal. By introducing a reference light at the wavelength of 1310 nm, a 1310/1550 nm wavelength division multiplexing was used instead of the high cost dense wavelength division multiplexing. In the experiment, two testing lights were coupled with the reference light to the fiber spools of different lengths, respectively. By finite difference method, the chromatic dispersion between the two testing lights was measured, and the fixed errors generated during transmission were less than 0.5 ps/(nm·km).展开更多

The acoustic pressure is transduced into elastic vibration of a circle metal disk, resulting in an intensity modulation of the reflected light wave back from fiber Bragg grating （FBG）. Experiment shows that the 500 EPS-FBG hydrophone has a minimum detectable acoustic pressure of about at 5 kHz and achieves about 18-dB improvement of acoustic pressure sensitivity compared with a regular apodized FBG hydrophone.展开更多

By applying Fourier transformation to the recorded spectral interference signal, we retrieve the spectral phase function Ф, which is induced by three parts： the path length difference in air L, the effective thickness of slightly dispersive cube beam splitter Teff and the nonlinear phase function due to multi-reflection of the thin film structure. We utilize the fact that the overall optical path difference （OPD） is linearly dependent on the refractive index of the beam splitter to determine both L and Teff. The spectral phase shift on reflection of thin film structure can be obtained by subtracting these two parts from Ф. We show theoretically and experimentally that our new method can provide a simple and fast solution in calculating the absolute spectral phase function of optical thin films, while still maintaining high accuracy.展开更多

The PS-FBG is composed of a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) and a microchannel through the fiber core. The microchannel can introduce phase shift into the FBG. What is more important is that it exposes the fiber core to the external environment. The phase shift peak is sensitive to the liquid refractive index, and it shows a linear refractive index response wavelength and intensity sensitivity of 2.526 nm/RIU and-111 d B/RIU, respectively.Therefore, such gratings can be used as sensors or tunable filters.展开更多
