A pulsed regime of short-cavity, heavily erbium-doped fiber lasers is of high interest for its
possible applications in telecommunications and sensorics. Here, we demonstrate and …

The elasto-optic effect in optical fibers under axial strain can be characterized by means of
the whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonances of the fiber itself. This technique enables a …

UV-assisted fabrication of gratings using photosensitive fibers is a well-established
technique, based on the UV-induced permanent modification of the refractive index of the …

We demonstrate all-optically controlled slow and fast lights in tilted fiber Bragg grating
(TFBG) with a graphene film. By employing graphene's efficient photothermal effect, the …

Optical fiber characterization using whispering gallery mode resonances of the fiber itself
has been demonstrated to be a powerful technique. In this work, we exploit the thermal …

A new mechanism for self-stabilizing microcavities of whispering gallery modes based on
optical fibers is proposed. For this, an optical fiber with a core doped with rare-earth …

The strain-optic coefficients of PMMA are measured in a broad wavelength range from 800
to 2000 nm. The sensitivity of the azimuthal whispering gallery mode resonances to the …

Whispering gallery modes (WGMs) are surface modes that propagate azimuthally around
resonators with rotational symmetry (toroidal, spherical, or, as in our case, cylindrical …

Chapter 3 focuses on photon noise in a continuous-wave ytterbium-doped fiber laser. In this
chapter, the noise properties of a continuous-wave ytterbium-doped fiber laser with …
