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 ...
Optical Fiber Sensors for Aircraft Structural Health Monitoring
(MDPI, 2015-06)
Aircraft structures require periodic and scheduled inspection and maintenance operations due to their special operating conditions and the principles of design employed to develop them. Therefore, structural health monitoring ...
Fabrication and Characterization of Polymer Optical Fibers Doped with Perylene-Derivatives for Fluorescent Lighting Applications
(MDPI, 2017-08)
Four different dye-doped polymer optical fibers (POFs) have been fabricated following a two-step fabrication process of preform extrusion and fiber drawing, using poly-(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as host material and dye ...
Fabrication of Active Polymer Optical Fibers by Solution Doping and Their Characterization
(MDPI, 2018-12-31)
This paper employs the solution-doping technique for the fabrication of active polymer optical fibers (POFs), in which the dopant molecules are directly incorporated into the core of non-doped uncladded fibers. Firstly, ...
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 ...
