To achieve a higher coupling between them, a polymer tapered pillar was fabricated on the end face of the SMF by applying the optical diffraction effect and a self-written waveguide technology using a high numerical aperture (HiNA) fiber. The initial 10.4 µm spot size was reduced to 4.17 µm at 1.55 µm wavelength, and the greatest coupling efficiency of –1.01 dB was reached between an SMF with a tapered pillar and uncured resin cladding and a HiNA fiber.

The LEDs which are proposed as substitute of FL should provide the same quality of lighting and visual comfort. The research on substituting FL lamps is based on the multi-criteria parameterization. It is indicates that LEDs substituting the FLs may not meet the end user expectations due to the Color Preference Criteria. The paper compare typical FL (4100 K) lamp named by CIE as illuminant FL3.5 with its corresponding LED substitutes available on the market. The LED substitute selection criterion were value of Corelated Color Temperature (CCT) and chromaticity point which was must be within ellipse provided by ANSI C78.376 document for 4100 K CCT.

Graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide are especially interesting because they are produced relatively easily, cheaply and quickly. Among many possible applications, reduced graphene oxide is a good candidate for sensor applications. Its properties can be controlled at the production stage. The precursor used and the method of oxidation have a significant influence on its properties. Therefore, it is worth take a closer look at them. In this paper we analyse the influence of the oxidation method on the size of the reduced graphene stock which determine the sensitivity of the rGO layer. We used AFM microscopy for this purpose.

Moreover, the research demonstrated the possibility of preserving the desired molecular orientation of liquid crystal initially stabilized by placing the sample in the external electric field. This was achieved by simultaneously irradiating the sample and controlling the orientation of liquid crystal molecules with the electric field. The spectral analysis of the polymerized sample showed no visible difference in propagation spectra when the electric field was turned off after the process was finished. Full Text: PDF ReferencesK.

A fiber optic glass ferrule filled with a solution of Rhodamine 6G in glycerin was used for the basic construction of the light source. The ferrule is coupled with optical fibers to illuminate the dye medium and to receive the fluorescent signal. A tuning of the light spectrum from the source between 528 nm and 660 nm with a shift of 1 nm is achieved by means of a monochromator. Full Text: PDF ReferencesN. Hoinka and T.

In particular analysis were focused on optimization of selected geometrical properties of grating coupler (shape of ridges and grooves) to obtain maximum efficiency of uncoupling of light from the sensor structure. The analysis were carried out for three type of ridges and grooves shape in grating coupler: rectangular, triangular and sinusoidal. Full Text: PDF ReferencesI. . Singh, A.Weston, A. Kundur, G.
