In this paper, we describe the properties of Fabry-Perot fiber cavity formed by two fiber Bragg
gratings in terms of the grating effective length. We show that the grating effective length is …

An overview on high-resolution and fast interrogation of optical-fiber sensors relying on laser
reflection spectroscopy is given. Fiber Bragg-gratings (FBGs) and FBG resonators built in …

Recently introduced Surface Nanoscale Axial Photonics (SNAP) makes it possible to
fabricate high Q-factor microresonators and other photonic microdevices by dramatically …

Widely used descriptions and relationships for birefringence and polarization-dependent
loss (PDL), developed primarily for ultraviolet-induced long-period fiber gratings (LPFGs) …

We will demonstrate a new technique to discriminate the temperature and strain effects
using a single fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The birefringence is typically induced during FBG …

This paper gives a bibliographical review of the finite element methods (FEMs) applied to
the analysis and simulation of smart materials and structures. The bibliography is an …

A non-destructive iterative interferometric tomographic technique is proposed for imaging
fibers with high refractive index contrast, complex structures, and/or large optical path …

We present an effective method to generate optical vortices (OVs) by using a helical fiber
Bragg grating (H-FBG) written directly on the few-mode fiber. The helical index modulation is …

The changes of birefringence in Type I-infrared (Type I-IR) and Type II-IR fiber Bragg
gratings induced by an ultrafast-IR laser in SMF-28 fibers are examined after and/or during …

The two-wave-plate compensator (TWC) technique is introduced for single-point retardation
measurements. The TWC method uses a known wave plate together with a wave plate of …
