Highly Sensitive Multicore Fiber Accelerometer for Low Frequency Vibration Sensing
(Nature, 2020-09-30)
We report on a compact, highly sensitive all-fiber accelerometer suitable for low frequency and low amplitude vibration sensing. The sensing elements in the device are two short segments of strongly coupled asymmetric ...
Review of a Custom-Designed Optical Sensing System for Aero-Engine Applications
(MDPI, 2021-02-25)
Fibre bundle-based reflective optical sensors are good candidates for parameter monitorisation in aero engines. Tip clearance is one of those parameters of great concern that is necessary to monitor. Within this optical ...
Fabrication Quality Assessment Based on the Coupling of a Dual-Core Microstructured Polymer Optical Fiber
(MDPI, 2021-11-09)
In this paper we report on the theoretical analysis and fabrication of a dual-core microstructured polymer optical fiber (mPOF) and demonstrate how the coupling characteristics of a dual-core mPOF may be a key factor to ...
Sensitivity-optimized strongly coupled multicore fiber-based thermometer
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
[EN] In this paper, we report on a multicore fiber-based (MCF) temperature sensor that operates in a wide thermal range and that is robustly packaged to withstand harsh environments. To develop the sensor, the fundamentals ...
Sensing Applications in Aircrafts Using Polymer Optical Fibres
(MDPI, 2021-05-21)
We report on recent advances in the use of inexpensive polymer optical fibres (POFs) for sensing applications in avionics. The sensors analysed in this manuscript take advantage of the unique properties of polymers, such ...
Compact Omnidirectional Multicore Fiber-Based Vector Bending Sensor
(Nature, 2021-03-16)
We propose and demonstrate a compact and simple vector bending sensor capable of distinguishing any direction and amplitude with high accuracy. The sensor consists of a short segment of asymmetric multicore fiber (MCF) ...
Twin-core fiber sensor integrated in laser cavity
(Nature, 2022)
In this work, we report on a twin-core fiber sensor system that provides improved spectral efficiency, allows for multiplexing and gives low level of crosstalk. Pieces of the referred strongly coupled multicore fiber are ...
Geometric optics analysis of inverted graded index fibers
(IOP, 2022)
We derive a general solution based on geometric optics that describes the light propagation properties in multimode optical fibers with inverted refractive index profiles. Using this general solution, we classify rays ...
Effects of Fabrication Methods on the Performance of Luminescent Solar Concentrators Based on Doped Polymer Optical Fibers
(MDPI, 2021-01-28)
In this work, we detail two types of fabrication processes of four polymer optical fibers doped with lumogen dyes. The fiber preforms have been manufactured with two different methods: extrusion and casting. We have compared ...
Fabrication and characterization of active polymer optical fibers with a ring-doped structure
(Elsevier, 2023-01)
This paper employs the solution-doping technique for the fabrication of polymer optical fibers (POFs) doped with two perylene derivatives, Lumogen Yellow 083 and Lumogen Red 305, in different combinations. With the ...
