  • A novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) sensor with three D-shaped holes based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is analyzed in this paper. Three D-shaped holes are filled with the analyte, and the gold film is deposited on the side of three planes. The design of D-shaped holes with outward expansion can effectively solve the uniformity problem of metallized nano-coating, it is beneficial to the filling of the analyte and is convenient for real-time measurement of the analyte. Compared with the hexagonal lattice structure, the triangular arrangement of the clad air holes can significantly reduce the transmission loss of light and improve the sensitivity of the sensor. The influences of the air hole diameter, the distance between D-shaped holes and core, and the counterclockwise rotation angle of D-shaped holes on sensing performance are studied. The simulation results show that the wavelength sensitivity of the designed sensor can be as high as 10100 nm/RIU and the resolution can reach 9.9 × 10-6 RIU.

  • The study reports on the design and performance of two air-filled and two partial ethanol-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) structures with a tetra core for supercontinuum generation. The PCFs are nonlinear with ultra-flattened zero dispersion. Holes with smaller areas are used to create a tetra-core PCF structure. Ethanol is filled in the holes of smaller area while the larger holes of cladding region are airfilled. Optical properties including dispersion, effective mode area, confinement loss, normalized frequency, and nonlinear coefficient of the designed PCF structures are investigated via full vector finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. A PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits significantly better results than a PCF structure with silica as wafer. However, both structures report dispersion at a telecommunication wavelength corresponding to 1.55 ㎛. Furthermore, the PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits a very high nonlinear coefficient corresponding to 1375 W-1 km-1 at the same wavelength. This scheme can be used for optical communication systems and in optical devices by exploiting the principle of nonlinearity.

  • In this paper, we describe the fabrication process and the characteristics of polarization maintaining photonic crystal fibers (PM-PCFs). The PM-PCF is fabricated by stack-and-draw method, i.e., stacking silica capillary tubes (making a PM-PCF preform) and drawing to optical fiber. Firstly, a PM-PCF preform is formed by stacking two kinds of capillary tubes around a solid silica rod and jacketing these stacked tubes with an outer silica tube (out-jacket tube). Later, the desired preform is drawn to a fiber in a high temperature drawing tower. We also compare the polarization properties such as polarization dependent loss, birefringence, and differential group delay of the fabricated PM-PCF with those of the conventional PANDA PM fiber.

  • 본 논문에서는 광자결정 광섬유를 이용하여 1000 nm 의 광대역폭을 갖는 광신호 분배기를 구현하였다. 제작에 사용된 광자결정 광섬유의 지름은 $130{\mu}m$ 이고 6층의 공기 구멍 구조로 이루어져 있다. 광신호 분배기는 두 가닥의 광자결정 광섬유에 열을 가함과 동시에 인장력을 가해 제작하였으며 제작된 광자결정 광섬유 기반 광신호 분배기의 지름은 $23{\mu}m$ 이었다. 광신호 분배기의 제작 시 인장시키는 길이에 따라 대역폭과 bandedge가 조절되었다. 제작된 광자결정 광섬유 기반 광신호 분배기의 대역폭이 1000 nm에서 50:50의 광신호 분해 효율을 가지는 것으로 측정되었다. 광자결정 광섬유의 공기 구멍 구조의 특성으로 인해 주변온도의 변화에 영향을 받지 않는 특성을 나타낸다. Optical coherence tomography의 분해능이 광원의 대역폭에 비례하므로 광대역폭을 갖는 광자결정 광섬유 기반 광신호 분배기는 신호 추출을 위한 간섭계 구성에 핵심적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
