Fabrication of Yb2O3 doped yttria-rich alumino-silica nano-particles based D-shaped low RI coated large core optical fibers having core diameter around 20.0-30.0 micron was made. The size of DNP nano-particles was maintained within 5-10 nm under doping of 0.20 mole% of fluorine. The start fiber preforms are studied by means of EPMA, EDX, and electron diffraction analyses, revealing phase-separated nano-sized ytterbium-rich areas in their cores. There is a great need to engineer the composition as well as doping levels of different elements within the core glass during the preform making stages to generate phase-separated Yb2O3 doped DNP nano particles in the fiber. The matter concentrates on making of Yb2O3 doped DNP containing optical fibers along with material characterizations, study of spectroscopic properties, photo-darkening phenomena and lasing characteristics. Such kind of nano-engineered glass based optical fibers shows good lasing efficiency with improved photodarkening phenomena compared to the standard silica glass based fiber.","PeriodicalId":243533,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 3rd International Conference on Photonics","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125316141","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}

This paper aims to demonstrate a simple procedure on mounting a manually tunable bandpass filter (TBF), with a mathematical model to represent the relation between the sensor's output and the central wavelength of the filter. A position sensor is used to match the central wavelength of the filter and the sensor's output. This results in a simple mount to actuate the TBF and the position of the wavelength is simply translated in terms of the output voltage. Although the accuracy of the system is not commercial grade, a rudimentary setup with promising results can be observed. We present the mount using very simple components, utilizing motorized actuation, with an analog voltage output which can bear any desired resolution for digitization. Finally, a mathematical model is developed to represent the wavelength-voltage relation. This setup paves way for researchers to log the central wavelength from tunable filters without the need for any equipment, at a much lower cost compared to its commercial counterparts.","PeriodicalId":243533,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 3rd International Conference on Photonics","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127717822","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 reduction of SBSTH is attributed to the Raman amplification on each of oscillated Brillouin pump power (OBP) and generated Stokes signals. The saturation in SBSTH is owing to the RPP depletion, this saturation is coincides with the appearance of Raman peak gain. In addition, the red shift effect became significant at RPP beyond 650mW and led to degradation of the Raman amplification. This degradation appeared as an increase in SBSTH after the saturation region.
