On the Dispersion Relations of Tapered Core Optical Fibers with Liquid Crystal Clad
The paper deals with the case of a three-layer liquid crystal tapered optical fiber (LCTOF) for which the dispersion relations are deduced corresponding to the TE and the TM modes. For the LCTOF under consideration, the outermost clad section is made of liquid crystal material with radial anisotropy whereas the core and the inner clad are homogeneous, non-magnetic and isotropic dielectric regio...
متن کاملSilica-clad crystalline germanium core optical fibers.
Silica-clad optical fibers comprising a core of crystalline germanium were drawn using a molten core technique. With respect to previous fibers drawn using a borosilicate cladding, the present fibers exhibit negligible oxygen despite being fabricated at more than twice the melting point of the germanium. The counterintuitive result of less oxygen when the fiber is drawn at a higher temperatures...
متن کاملLiquid crystal fibers of bent-core molecules.
Although the liquid-crystal research is well established in science, there are newly emerging exciting systems, that deserve extensive basic studies. One of these areas is the research of the bent-shaped molecules (so-called "banana liquid crystals"), which have delicate chirality and polarity properties. In this paper we show that these materials also have very unusual rheological features, su...
متن کاملSoliton propagation in tapered silicon core fibers.
Numerical simulations are used to investigate soliton-like propagation in tapered silicon core optical fibers. The simulations are based on a realistic tapered structure with nanoscale core dimensions and a decreasing anomalous dispersion profile to compensate for the effects of linear and nonlinear loss. An intensity misfit parameter is used to establish the optimum taper dimensions that prese...
متن کاملStructure and stability of bent core liquid crystal fibers.
Recently it was found that fluid smectic phases of bent core liquid crystals formed freestanding fibers of extremely high slenderness ratios. Studies of these fibers showed that their structure was composed of concentric cylindrical smectic layers. For this configuration to be stable there must be an energy term that desires bending of the smectic layers. We show that an energy term that deals ...
