ItemSpectral Tuning of Long Period Fiber Gratings Fabricated by Femtosecond Laser Micromachining through Thermal Annealing( 2019) Carlos Duarte Viveiros ; José Almeida ; Luís Carlos Coelho ; Helena Soares Vasconcelos ; Vítor Oliveira Amorim ; João Miguel Maia ; Pedro Jorge ; 3565 ; 5256 ; 5799 ; 5872 ; 6407 ; 6596 ; 7222A femtosecond laser direct writing system was developed to explore the fabrication of long-period fiber gratings (LPFGs) in SMF28 fibers. The LPFGs, showing the mode LP1,6 at 1500 nm, were exposed to high-temperature annealing up to 950 °C. Modifications in the refractive index (RI) modulation are observed through a blue-shift in the LPFG attenuation bands and above 850 °C, the mode LP1,7 appear at 1600 nm. The wavelength sensitivity to external RI from 1.300 to 1.452 was estimated for both modes before and after annealing. Greater sensitivity was found for the higher order mode in the entire range reaching 2400 nm/RIU around 1.440.

ItemTemperature Stability and Spectral Tuning of Long Period Fiber Gratings Fabricated by Femtosecond Laser Direct Writing( 2020) Carlos Duarte Viveiros ; José Almeida ; Luís Carlos Coelho ; Helena Soares Vasconcelos ; João Miguel Maia ; Vítor Oliveira Amorim ; Pedro Jorge ; Paulo Vicente Marques ; 3565 ; 4287 ; 5256 ; 5799 ; 5872 ; 6407 ; 6596 ; 7222Long period fiber gratings (LPFGs) were fabricated in a standard single mode fiber (SMF-28e) through femtosecond (fs) laser direct writing. LPFGs with longer and shorter periods were fabricated, which allows coupling from the fundamental core mode to lower and higher order asymmetric cladding modes (LP1,6 and LP1,12, respectively). For the grating periods of 182.7 and 192.5 µm, it was verified that the LP1,12 mode exhibits a TAP at approximately 1380 and 1448 nm in air and water, respectively. Characterization of the LPFGs subjected to high-temperature thermal treatment was accomplished. Fine-tuning of the resonance band’s position and thermal stability up to 600 °C was shown. The temperature sensitivity was characterized for the gratings with different periods and for different temperature ranges. A maximum sensitivity of -180.73, and 179.29 pm/°C was obtained for the two resonances of the 182.7 µm TAP LPFG, in the range between 250 and 600 °C.

ItemTurn Around Point Long Period Fiber Gratings With Coupling to Asymmetric Cladding Modes Fabricated by a Femtosecond Laser and Coated With Titanium Dioxide( 2021) Carlos Duarte Viveiros ; José Almeida ; Luís Carlos Coelho ; Vasconcelos,H ; João Miguel Maia ; Amorim,VA ; Pedro Jorge ; Paulo Vicente Marques ; 3565 ; 4287 ; 5256 ; 5799 ; 5872 ; 6596A detailed study of turn around point (TAP) long period fiber gratings (LPFGs) with coupling to the asymmetric cladding modes of a standard single-mode fiber (SMF-28e), fabricated by femtosecond (fs) laser direct writing was realized. The entire fabrication process, including the coating with different titanium dioxide (TiO2) film thicknesses of LPFGs and the corrections needed to achieve coated devices operating precisely in the TAP condition with coupling to the asymmetric cladding modes, was addressed. The significant fabrication details are also given, such as inscription periods, shape and localization of the refractive index modifications across the core. The fabrication process described allows the optimization of the LPFGs sensitivity in regards to the surrounding refractive index (SRI). Optimization of the writing parameters to obtain gratings working at the TAP for two different media surrounding the fiber (water and air) was achieved. It was demonstrated that for a grating period of 191.8 mu m, the LP1,12 mode exhibits a TAP at 1442.7 nm in air, and for a period of 192.5 mu m, the same mode exhibits a TAP at 1448.6 nm in water. The LPFGs operating at the TAP in air and water were coated with 10, 20, and 30 nm thin TiO2 film thicknesses and the spectral behavior characterized. The wavelength sensitivity to the surrounding refractive index (SRI) was assessed in the range between 1.3700 to 1.4120, and a maximum sensitivity of similar to 8051.4 nm/RIU was measured for the 192.5 mu m LPFG coated with a 30 nm thick TiO2 film.
