Meanwhile, OPGW icing can also make the wire with strain, which has the possibility of fiber fracture. Therefore, it is very important to judge and predict the state of OPGW icing. In this paper, a prediction model of ice coating thickness of OPGW based on multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) is proposed.

However, the cumbersome probe preparation process is still a significant problem faced by fiber SPR technology. Here, we propose a simple and rapid method for the fabrication of sensing probes. In this study, the silver mirror reaction was used to coat the silver film on the surface of a core mismatch fiber structure formed by a single-mode fiber (SMF) and two multimode fibers (MMF) to excite the SPR, The core mismatch sensing element is prepared by cleaving and fusion splicing, and the coating of the sensing film adopts a simple silver mirror reaction, so the preparation process is extremely simple. After the silver film is uniformly coated on the single-mode fiber sensing unit, the sensing unit was immersed in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and cured by heating for temperature sensing measurement. Thanks to the higher thermo-optic coefficient, the refractive index of PDMS on the sensor probe will also change when the external temperature changes, so the surface plasmon resonance dip underwent a noticeable wavelength shift. Further, the cured PDMS can also enhance the stability of the probe structure. The results show that in the temperature range of 20℃ to 80℃, the maximum temperature sensitivity is -1.66nm/℃, with good stability, accuracy and repeatability. In addition, the sensor has the advantages of simple structure, convenient fabrication, good reversibility and strong stability. The temperature sensor based on core mismatch is expected to be used in the temperature detection of fields such as biology, medical treatment, and aerospace.","PeriodicalId":422113,"journal":{"name":"Photonics and Optoelectronics Meetings","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126875906","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}

During the process of phase modulation, the frequency modes couple between each other accompanying with a nonreciprocal phase, which mimics an artificial gauge potential for photons. As the light circulates in the fiber loop, coherent interference effects occur between frequency modes in distinct circulations, which are highly influenced by the artificial gauge potential. By carefully choosing the gauge potential via adjusting the modulation phase, we can coherently suppress a series of frequency components within a broad spectrum and flexibly manipulate the positions, widths and depths of these drops. In the experiment, we achieved a hole position shift with ~50 GHz and a hole width with ~30 GHz while the extinction ratio reaches ~15 dB. For even higher modulation depth beyond the experiment range, the simulation shows that the width of main spectral hole will grow linearly with the increase of modulation depth while the position and depth tend to be stable. The study reveals the anomalous cancellation of frequency modes in a fiber loop, which holds great promises for potential applications in optical communications and signal processing.","PeriodicalId":422113,"journal":{"name":"Photonics and Optoelectronics Meetings","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130913794","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}

It should be noted that phase noises would keep accumulating during pulse transmission. By subtracting an initial phase at the input point from demodulated phases at other positions, the noises related to the laser itself except random noises can be considerably reduced. In order to further decrease the impact of random noises on waveform retrieval of external vibrations, it is necessary to eliminate the accumulated noises before vibration position as much as possible. In this work, a sliding root mean square method (SRMS) is firstly applied to locate vibration events. By the SRMS, the demodulated phase at ~10 m before vibration point is regarded as the modified reference. Then, the vibration waveform can be retrieved after phase subtraction. For comparison purpose, both the input and modified references are employed to retrieve temporal vibration signals. Experimental results show that the SRMS shows good noise performance for vibration location. In terms of signal retrieval, the vibration waveform can be recovered with better noise suppression by the modified reference compared to the input one.","PeriodicalId":422113,"journal":{"name":"Photonics and Optoelectronics Meetings","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133225556","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}

Wob is the bandwidth out of the frequency mask limit and Pob is the signal power exceeding the frequency mask. At last, the derivatives of the Gaussian pulse are evaluated up to third order, i.e. monocycle, doublet and triplet, when the original Gaussian pulse width varies from 60 to 350 ps. The results show that the interference introduced to outside band by the UWB signal decreases at first and then increases and finally decreases again, when the original Gaussian pulse width increases.

However, many existing preparation methods of silica nanospheres not only rely on expensive instruments, but also have long preparation cycles. Here, we propose an optimized Stӧber method to prepare silica nanospheres, which is simple, efficient and low-cost. Silica nanospheres with different sizes can be obtained by repeatedly adding the tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) solution dropwise at a constant speed. The characterizations by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and zeta potential meter reveal that the size of silica nanospheres gradually increases with the increase of the amount of TEOS. In addition, different concentrations of ammonia affect not only the rate of reaction, but also the final particle size of the microspheres. Afterwards, the silica nanospheres with sizes of 190 nm, 235 nm, and 284 nm were prepared into colored photonic crystal thin films by chemical self-assembly, and they appeared blue, green and red under the reflection of natural light. Finally, their reflection spectra were measured using a selfbuild characterization system, and found that their peak reflection wavelengths were 427 nm, 511 nm, and 622nm. These results indicate that the reflection peaks of the films gradually red-shift with increasing silica nanosphere size. The proposed optimized Stӧber method for preparing silica nanospheres is simple and efficient, which can greatly expand their application in various fields. For example, the surface of silica nanospheres can be linked to various chemical groups by silanization, which can be used for biochemical sensing. Colored films prepared from silica nanospheres also have potential applications in decoration and other fields.","PeriodicalId":422113,"journal":{"name":"Photonics and Optoelectronics Meetings","volume":"1167 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121045144","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}
