Side illumination fluorescence emission characteristics from a dye doped polymer optical fiber under two-photon excitation.
Two-photon excited (TPE) side illumination fluorescence studies in a Rh6G-RhB dye mixture doped polymer optical fiber (POF) and the effect of energy transfer on the attenuation coefficient is reported. The dye doped POF is pumped sideways using 800 nm, 70 fs laser pulses from a Ti:sapphire laser, and the TPE fluorescence emission is collected from the end of the fiber for different propagation ...
متن کاملOptical Characterization of Doped Thermoplastic and Thermosetting Polymer-Optical-Fibers
The emission properties of a graded-index thermoplastic polymer optical fiber and a step-index thermosetting one, both doped with rhodamine 6G, have been studied. The work includes a detailed analysis of the amplified spontaneous emission together with a study of the optical gains and losses of the fibers. The photostability of the emission of both types of fibers has also been investigated. Co...
متن کاملRare-Earth Doped Optical Fibers
An optical fiber becomes active by doping its core with one or more atomic elements, usually (but not restricted to) rare-earths (RE’s), more specifically, the lanthanides that occupy the atomic numbers 57 to 71 of the periodic table. As it will be mentioned later in more detail, they use three electrons in bonding to the condensed materials such as crystals and glasses to become triply ionized...
متن کاملFabrication and Characterization of Polymer Optical Fibers Doped with Perylene-Derivatives for Fluorescent Lighting Applications
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 derivatives from perylene and naphtalimide as active dopants. The side illumination technique (SIT) has been employed in order to determine some optical properties of the fabr...
متن کاملAngle dependent Fiber Bragg grating inscription in microstructured polymer optical fibers.
We report on an incidence angle influence on inscription of the Fiber Bragg Gratings in Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microstructured polymer optical fibers. We have shown experimentally that there is a strong preference of certain angles, labeled ГK, over the other ones. Angles close to ГK showed fast start of inscription, rapid inscription and stronger gratings. We have also shown that grati...
