Rare-Earth-Doped Fiber Lasers and Amplifiers, Second Edition discusses the essential
principles, operating characteristics, and current technology of the main fiber laser and …

An all-fiber-optic frequency shifter is demonstrated that uses mode coupling between the
LP_01 and LP_11 modes by a traveling acoustic flexural wave guided along the optical …

Single-mode fibers are the most advanced means of transmitting information, since they
provide extremely low attenuation and very high bandwidths. At present, long distance …

An apparatus utilizes a two-mode optical waveguide with a non-circular core to provide
stable spatial inten sity patterns in both propagation modes for light propa gating therein …

Optical fibers have been observed to change refractive index with UV exposure. We
describe a novel approach to grating writing in optical fiber. This method involves writing the …

A mode converter comprises an a-axis LiNbO 3 optical fiber exhibiting a ferroelectric bi-
domain structure. The fiber is subject to an electrical field that induces a+ π/2 phase …

A method for converting electromagnetic (EM) energy between guided modes of a photonic
crystal waveguide having a waveguide axis, the method including:(i) providing the photonic …
