Multimode interference tapered fiber refractive index sensors.
Real-time monitoring of the fabrication process of tapering down a multimode-interference-based fiber structure is presented. The device is composed of a pure silica multimode fiber (MMF) with an initial 125 μm diameter spliced between two single-mode fibers. The process allows a thin MMF with adjustable parameters to obtain a high signal transmittance, arising from constructive interference am...
متن کاملMicroring Resonators Based on 6x6 Generalized Multimode Interference Structures using Silicon Waveguides for Photonic Applications
In this paper, we would like to propose a new microring resonator structure based on 6x6 Generalized Mach Zehnder interferometer (GMZI) using silicon waveguides. It is showed that this new kind of the devices works as three separated microring resonators. This characteristic of the device leads to a variety of tasks important to optical communications, including switching, filtering, add-drop m...
متن کاملTunable multimode interference coupler
Introduction: Multimode interference (MMI) couplers have been widely used in integrated photonic devices because of their compact size, wide optical bandwidth, polarisation independence and relaxed fabrication tolerances [1]. In most applications they operate as passive components, and only recently has their use as active components for the development of photonic switches been investigated [2...
متن کاملApplications of gradient index metamaterials in waveguides.
In this letter, we find that gradient index metamaterials (GIMs) could be utilized to manipulate wave propagation in waveguides. Through manipulating the conversion between propagating wave and surface wave, we can design some interesting applications in waveguides, such as controlling transmission effect, realizing bending waveguide and achieving waveguide splitting effect. These devices not o...
متن کاملMultimode Hong-Ou-mandel interference.
We consider multimode two-photon interference at a beam splitter by photons created by spontaneous parametric down-conversion. The resulting interference pattern is shown to depend upon the transverse spatial symmetry of the pump beam. In an experiment, we employ the first-order Hermite-Gaussian modes in order to show that, by manipulating the pump beam, one can control the resulting two-photon...
