A NOVEL PLANAR ION FUNNEL DESIGN FOR MINIATURE ION OPTICS

Novel Fiber Bragg Grating Design

Abstract: We proposed and demonstrated a novel practical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) fabrication setup constructed with high performance linear stages, piezoelectric translation (PZT) stages, and a highly stable continuous wave laser. Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors have emerged as advanced tools for monitoring a wide range of physical parameters in various fields, including structural health, aerospace, biochemical, and environmental applications. These microscopic structures within optical fibers have become the bedrock of cutting-edge sensor.

Principle of Novel Hollow-Core Optical Fiber Structure

By replacing the solid core with an air-filled channel, hollow-core fibers (HCFs) allow light to propagate at nearly its vacuum speed, reaching approximately 3×10 8 meters per second. Hollow-core optical fibers (HCFs) have unique properties like low latency, negligible optical nonlinearity, wide low-loss spectrum, up to 2100 nm, the ability to carry high power, and potentially lower loss then solid-core single-mode fibers (SMFs). For decades, optical fibers have relied on a solid glass core to guide light and have formed the backbone of global telecommunications.

Fabrication of a planar funnel-shaped bridge

We report the fabrication of a planar, silicon-based, monolithically integrated micro laminar flow fuel cell (μLFFC) using standard MEMS and IC-compatible fabrication technologies.

What are planar fiber optic connectors

A fiber optic connector is a mechanical device used to align and join optical fibers, enabling light to pass through with minimal loss. The fiber connector types, sometimes referred to as terminations, link fiber optic cables together through terminals, switches, adapters, and patch panels, by bridging the gap between their.

Planar Optical Waveguide Manufacturing Process

This article explores the main fabrication methods for polymeric optical waveguides, such as traditional and maskless photolithography, laser ablation, hot embossing, nanoimprint lithography, the Mosquito method, inkjet printing, aerosol jet printing, and. Planar waveguides, also known as slab waveguides, are a fundamental component in the field of photonics. These structures are essential for guiding light in a controlled manner, and they have a wide range of applications in optical communications, lasers, and other photonic devices. While Bragg gratings are routinely patterned within optical fibers using the point-by-point or line-by-line technique, the objective of our work is to produce Bragg grating sensors within planar glass substrates. In principle, they function just like fibers and are also described by the same parameters.
