Sensitivity Enhancement of Ring Laser Gyroscope Using Dielectric-Graphene Photonic Crystal
In a ring laser gyroscope, due to the rotation and the Sagnac effect, a phase difference between the two counter-propagating beams is generated. In this device, the higher phase difference between these two beams causes the better the interference pattern detection, and thus the sensitivity is increased. In this paper, the effect of inserting a dielectric-graphene photonic crystal inside a ring...
متن کاملDesign of the [SiO2/ZrO2] photonic crystal filter for application in 350-nm laser safety glasses
In this paper, a one-dimensional photonic crystal filter based on the [SiO2/ZrO2] bilayer have been designed for application in safety glasses for working in 350-nm wavelength. High power lasers with low wavelength e.g. 350-nm have very high power which can cause serious damage to the operator’s eyes. In this paper using the transfer matrix method and theoretical calculation in MATLAB software ...
متن کاملAll-fiber femtosecond Cherenkov radiation source.
An all-fiber femtosecond source of spectrally isolated Cherenkov radiation is reported, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time. Using a monolithic, self-starting femtosecond Yb-doped fiber laser as the pump source and the combination of photonic crystal fibers as the wave-conversion medium, we demonstrate milliwatt-level, stable, and tunable Cherenkov radiation at visible wavelengths ...
متن کاملUltraviolet-visible non-supercontinuum ultrafast source enabled by switching single silicon strand-like photonic crystal fibers.
Cherenkov radiation from short photonic crystal fiber with a high air-fill fraction can selectively convert the 1020 nm fs pump pulses from a laser oscillator to the fundamental-mode signal pulses at a significantly shorter wavelength. Across the ultraviolet-visible spectral region, the typical fiber output is characterized by a single isolated Cherenkov band having a multimilliwatt-level avera...
متن کاملOptical frequency up-conversion by supercontinuum-free widely-tunable fiber-optic Cherenkov radiation.
Spectrally-isolated narrowband Cherenkov radiation from commercial nonlinear photonic crystal fibers is demonstrated as an ultrafast optical source with a visible tuning range of 485-690 nm, which complementarily extends the near-infrared tuning range of 690-1020 nm from the corresponding femtosecond Ti:sapphire pump laser. Pump-tosignal conversion efficiency routinely surpasses 10%, enabling m...
