摘要: An optical beam delivery device establishes, from an optical beam, an optical trap that is moveable to different optical trap locations. The device has a first length of fiber through which the optical beam propagates along a propagation path and which has a first refractive index profile (RIP) enabling modification of the propagation path to form an adjusted optical beam movable to propagate along different propagation paths in response to different states of applied perturbation. The device also has a second length of fiber coupled to the first length of fiber and having confinement cores defining a second RIP. The confinement cores occupy different positions in, and correspond to the different optical trap locations at an output of, the second length of fiber.

摘要: The present invention discloses an elliptical cladding polarization-maintaining large-mode-area gain fiber, structurally comprising a core of the elliptical cladding polarization-maintaining large-mode-area gain fiber, an inner cladding, an elliptical stress layer, a first outer cladding, a second outer cladding and a third outer cladding, wherein the inner cladding surrounds the core; the elliptical stress layer surrounds the inner cladding, and has an elliptical cross-sectional shape; the first outer cladding surrounds the elliptical stress layer; the second outer cladding surrounds the first outer cladding; and the third outer cladding surrounds the second outer cladding. As the birefringence of the elliptical cladding polarization-maintaining fiber is directly proportional to the ellipticity and the deposition of a stress-applying area occurs during the preform rod forming process, procedures of preform drilling and the like are eliminated, and the likelihood of preform contamination is greatly reduced. The optical loss and strength of the fiber can hence be improved, and the entire manufacturing process is simplified. Furthermore, the birefringence and the pump absorption of the fiber can also be improved.

摘要: A deterministic methodology is provided for designing optical fibers that support field-flattened, ring-like higher order modes. The effective and group indices of its modes can be tuned by adjusting the widths of the guide's field-flattened layers or the average index of certain groups of layers. The approach outlined here provides a path to designing fibers that simultaneously have large mode areas and large separations between the propagation constants of its modes.
