چکیده

A novel method for coupling single-mode fibers to planar optical circuits with small waveguide dimensions is proposed. The method eliminates the need to apply microoptics or to adapt the waveguide dimensions within the planar circuit to the fiber dimensions. Alignment tolerances are comparable to those of fiber- fiber coupling. The low loss potential of the method is experimentally demonstrated for A1(2) O(3) waveguides on silicon substrates.

ساختار مد طولی برای تشدیدگر حلقوی ناهم سطح

 The structure of longitudinal modes of a passively Q-switched, non-planar unidirectional ring-resonator,with Nd:YAG active medium is described in this article. Two different techniques are used to study the longitudinal mode structure of the laser resonator. At first, the fast-fourier transform technique is applied for analyzing the mode beating of the optical fields by intensity frequency str...

Comprehensive Theoretical Study on Threshold Power of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Single-Mode Fibers

We have investigated and developed a theoretical approach to explore stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) phenomena in single mode fiber. SBS happening threshold power condition has been studied in terms of fiber parameters and input pump power. To assess threshold power precisely, the pump depletion effect and fiber loss has been included by employing 1% criterion. The threshold exponential g...

Sensorless Indirect Field Oriented Control of Single-sided Linear Induction Motor With a Novel Sliding Mode MRAS Speed Estimator

This paper proposes a new sliding mode control (SMC)  based model reference adaptive system (MRAS) for sensorless indirect field oriented control (IFOC) of a single-sided linear induction motor (SLIM). The operation of MRAS speed estimators dramatically depends on adaptation mechanism. Fixed-gain PI controller is conventionally used for this purpose which may fail to estimate the speed correctl...

Taper control of radially-symmetric gradient-index waveguides in photopolymer

Optical waveguide adiabatic tapers enable low-loss connections between devices with dissimilar mode profiles. Common examples are semiconductor lasers, single-mode optical fibers and planar waveguides. Planar lithographic processes can easily create tapers in the plane but out-of-plane, symmetric tapers are difficult. Three-dimensional direct-write lithography into photopolymer naturally create...
