In this work, a new all-polarization maintaining (PM) fiber loop mirror interferometer is proposed and validated as temperature and mechanical vibration sensor. The scheme employs the arms of a PM coupler as communication ...

This letter presents an experimental comparison between two linear-cavity erbiumdoped fiber lasers (EDFL) assisted by two different artificial backscatter fiber-based reflectors. Both reflectors were inscribed by femtosecond ...

In this paper, different core structures of microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) for low-finesse Fabry-Perot (FP) sensors are experimentally compared to get the highest sensitivity. These devices are designed for volatile ...

We experimentally explore the relation between spectral linewidth and RIN transfer in half-open cavity random distributed feedback Raman lasers, demonstrating for the first time the possibility of adjusting the pump-to-signal ...

This work presents an experimental analysis and comparison of the performance of quasi-randomly distributed reflectors inscribed into a single-mode fiber as a sensing mirror both in C- and L-band. Single-wavelength emission ...

In this work, a novel optical fiber sensor capable of measuring both the liquid level and its refractive index is designed, manufactured and demonstrated through simulations and experimentally. For this, a silica capillary ...

In this Letter, we present an analysis of the backscattering generated in a microdrilled tapered fiber within a short-linear-cavity fiber laser. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a fiber cavity laser based on a ...

The authors proposed a quasi-distributed vibration sensing technique using in-line weak reflectors and optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR). As a result, they achieved an 8 kHz measurable vibration frequency with ...

In this paper, the influence of the thickness of metallic-oxide coatings, ITO, and SnO2 on the sensitivity of a microstructured optical fiber Fabry–Pérot (FP) has been studied with the aim of developing ammonia gas fiber ...

In this work, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a new distributed short linear cavity fiber laser. At one of the cavity ends, fabricated by a commercial femtosecond fiber laser chirped pulse amplfier, an artificially ...
