However, the transmission of laser beams in HWGs relies on the multiple reflections by the inner wall, and it makes the path length of laser beams emitted from HWGs unequal, thereby limiting the high-precision measurement of gas concentration. Two mathematical models were established based on geometric optics to characterize the effective path length ratio (EPLR) distribution of the laser beam emitted from a straight HWG and a bent HWG, respectively. The effects of HWG parameters and incident conditions on EPLR distribution was investigated, and quantitative analysis was carried out. Experimental verification was performed by basing heterodyne interferometry. A formula to calculate the equivalent path length ratio of a laser beam propagating in an HWG was given, which simplifies the complicated calculation caused by the path length not unique and demonstrates 1-6% reduction in measurement error. The proposed method has guiding significance for high-precision measurement of absorption spectroscopy, and can extend to both substrate-integrated HWG (iHWG) and liquid waveguide capillary cell (LWCC) based optical sensors.","PeriodicalId":201899,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Optical Instruments and Technology","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133431843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By measuring the resistance between each pair of electrodes with different voltage polarities, either ohmic or Schottky resistances can be eliminated through calculation. At the same time, this method is easily integrated into flexible devices, so the actual values of material resistances under pressure can be tested.","PeriodicalId":201899,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Optical Instruments and Technology","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115591961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To achieve wavelength or/and pulsewidth tunability in saturable absorber (SA) based mode-locked fiber lasers, some technologies including tunable band pass filter, fiber Bragg grating, diffraction grating mirror, 45°tilted fiber grating, and tunable Lyot filter are proposed to provide the direct spectral manipulation of the pulses. In this paper, we demonstrate a simple bandwidth-tunable ultrashort pulse generation scheme for a nonlinear polarization rotation mode-locked laser. By utilizing a polarization-maintaining-fiber-pigtailed inline polarizer and a polarization controller, a nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) mode-locking effect as well as a bandwidth-tunable Lyot filter are enabled in the laser cavity when the intracavity polarization settings adjusted. The Lyot filter formed by the inline polarizer and its birefringence of the two fiber pigtails with lengths of 0.3 m could introduce a spectral filtering effect. By only tuning the intracavity polarization controller, the spectral bandwidth is continuously tuned in the range of 7.8 to 3.5 nm. We attribute the lower limit of the spectral bandwidth to the nonlinear self-phase modulation requiring narrow pulses in nonlinear polarization rotation mode-locked lasers. These results provide a simple way for generating subpicosecond pulse with variable spectral bandwith or pulse duration without using a saturable absorber.","PeriodicalId":201899,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Optical Instruments and Technology","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116166970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The frozen coating exerts strain on fiber core, resulting in additional length change and the increase of fiber delay coefficient.

Conventional intensity-modulation direct-detection (IM/DD) systems still dominate the market for high speed short reach optical interconnects due to its simplicity and low cost compared with coherent solutions. Several advanced techniques to achieving net data rates around 200∼250 Gbps have been demonstrated. Effective digital signal processing (DSP) for signal recovery are always used in these systems, including digital pre-distortion, digital timing recovery, feed-forward and decision feedback equalization (FFE/DFE) and stronger forward error correction. Probabilistic shaping (PS) has been introduced for 200G+ per lane IM/DD systems. Semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and PS can be potentially used for 200G+ per lane IM/DD systems at O-band over 10 km SMF. There are two main transmission impairments: the nonlinear impairments from the nonlinear region of the electro-optical components, and linear impairments from the bandwidth constraint of the optoelectronic devices and chromatic dispersion. Single-lane 200G+ transmission is difficult to realize due to the nonlinear impairments and the strong bandwidth constraint of optoelectronic devices. In recent years, we have experimentally demonstrated several 200G+ per lane IM/DD short-reach transmission system, making it a promising scheme for data center short-reach applications.","PeriodicalId":201899,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Optical Instruments and Technology","volume":"368 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127586948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
