  • Silicon Nano-Particles Doped Optical Fiber: Fabrication, Characterization, and Application
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2013
    Co-Authors: Alexander V. Kir'yanov, Sumita Das, Mukul Chandra Paul, Yu. O. Barmenkov, A. M. Martinez-gamez, Mrinmay Pal, J. L. Lucio-martinez, A. Arredondo-santos, V. A. Kamynin, Victor G. Plotnichenko
    Abstract:

    The Fabrication of a new-type of Silicon nanoparticles (Si-n/p) doped silica Fiber is reported. The method is entirely based on the MCVD process, with no solution-doping technique being required. The TEM, EPMA, EDX, and electron diffraction analyses as well as the Raman, Optical absorption, and fluorescence spectra’ measurements confirm the formation of Si-n/p in the Fiber. When pumped at 406 nm, this Fiber fluoresces mainly in the VIS to near-IR spectral range and the fluorescence shows a multi-peak spectral structure in several wide bands. As a consequence of the high nonlinearity $n_{2}$ of the Fiber, effective supercontinuum generation at 1.6- $\mu{\rm m}$ excitation by tens ns-range, kW-level pulses is demonstrated.

  • Nano-engineered Yb2O3 doped Optical Fiber: Fabrication, material characterizations, spectroscopic properties and lasing characteristics: a review

    Co-Authors: Mukul Chandra Paul, Sumita Das, Mrinmay Pal, Sandip Bysakh, Shyamal Kumar Bhadra, Seongwoo Yoo, A.j. Boyland, J K Sahu
    Abstract:

    This review summarizes the very recent work on development of Yb2O3 doped nano-crystalline YAG in a silica based preforms made by modified chemical vapour deposition (MCVD)-solution doping technique and under suitable thermal annealing of the preforms for next generation of Optical Fiber devices. There is a great need to engineer the composition as well as doping levels of different elements within the core glass during the preform making stages to generate phase-separated Yb2O3 doped yttria-alumino rich silica nano particles, with or without crystalline in nature, in the fibre. The discussion concentrates on making of Yb2O3 doped yttria-alumino rich YAG nano-crystals containing silica glass based perform, drawing of Fibers containing phase-separated dielectric nano-particles along with material characterizations, study of spectroscopic properties, photo-darkening phenomena and lasing characteristics. Also, approaches that may be applied for the formation of yttria alumina rich phase-separated crystalline nano-particles and dielectric nano-particles within the preform and Fiber core region respectively are discussed in this review.

  • Thermophoretic Hydromagnetic Dissipative Heat and Mass Transfer with Lateral Mass Flux, Heat Source, Ohmic Heating and Thermal Conductivity Effects: Network Simulation Numerical Study
    Applied Thermal Engineering, 2009
    Co-Authors: Joaquín Zueco, O. Anwar Bég, H.s. Takhar, V.r. Prasad
    Abstract:

    A two-dimensional mathematical model is presented for the laminar heat and mass transfer of an electrically-conducting, heat generating/absorbing fluid past a perforated horizontal surface in the presence viscous and Joule (Ohmic) heating. The Talbot-Cheng-Scheffer-Willis formulation (1980) is used to introduce a thermophoretic coefficient into the concentration boundary layer equation. The governing partial differential equations are non-dimensionalized and transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential similarity equations, in a single independent variable, . The resulting coupled, nonlinear equations are solved under appropriate transformed boundary conditions using the Network Simulation Method. Computations are performed for a wide range of the governing flow parameters, viz Prandtl number, thermophoretic coefficient (a function of Knudsen number), Eckert number (viscous heating effect), thermal conductivity parameter, heat absorption/generation parameter, wall transpiration parameter, Hartmann number and Schmidt number. The numerical details are discussed with relevant applications. Excellent correlation is achieved with earlier studies due to White (1974) and Chamkha and Issa (2000). The present problem finds applications in Optical Fiber Fabrication, aerosol filter precipitators, particle deposition on hydronautical blades, semiconductor wafer design, thermo-electronics and nuclear hazards.

  • Use of CsCl to enhance the glass stability range of tellurite glasses for Er3+ doped Optical Fiber drawing
    Optical Components and Materials IV, 2007
    Co-Authors: Carmen Rosa Eyzaguirre, E. Rodriguez, Enver F. Chillcce, Sérgio Paulo Amaral Osório, Carlos L. Cesar, Italo Odone Mazali, Oswaldo Luiz Alves, Luiz C. Barbosa
    Abstract:

    Tellurite glasses are important as a host of Er 3+ ions because of their great solubility and because they present broader gain bandwidths than Er 3+ -doped silica, with promise to increase the bandwidth of communication systems. However, the small glass stability range (GSR) of tellurite glasses compromises the quality of the Optical Fibers. We show that the addition of CsCl to tellurite glasses can increase their GSR, making it easier to draw good quality Optical Fibers. CsCl acts as a network modifier in glass systems, weakening the network by forming Te-Cl bonds. We show that the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch is in the right direction for Optical Fiber Fabrication purposes and that the Bi 2 O 3 content can be used to control the refractive index of clad and core glasses. Single-mode and multi-mode Er 3+ -doped Optical Fibers were produced by the rod-in-tube method using highly homogeneous TeO 2 -ZnO-Li 2 O -Bi 2 O 3 -CsCl glasses. Far infrared spectra of the glass samples exhibit absorption bands of the Te-Cl bond.

  • Use of CsCl to Enhance the Glass Stability Range of Tellurite Glasses for Er3+‐Doped Optical Fiber Drawing
    Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2007
    Co-Authors: Carmen Rosa Eyzaguirre, E. Rodriguez, Enver F. Chillcce, Sérgio Paulo Amaral Osório, Carlos L. Cesar, Luiz C. Barbosa, Italo Odone Mazali, Oswaldo Luiz Alves
    Abstract:

    Tellurite glasses are important as a host of Er3+ ions because of their good solubility and because they present broadband Optical gain compared with Er3+-doped silica, with the potential to increase the bandwidth of communication systems. However, the small glass stability range (GSR) of tellurite glasses compromises the quality of the Optical Fibers. We show that the addition of CsCl to tellurite glasses can increase their GSR, making it easier to draw good-quality Optical Fibers. CsCl acts like a network modifier in glass systems, weakening the network by forming Te–Cl bonds. We show that the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch is in the right direction for Optical Fiber Fabrication purposes and that the Bi2O3 content can be used to control the refractive index of clad and core glasses. Single-mode and multi-mode Er3+-doped Optical Fibers were produced by the rod-in-tube method using highly homogeneous TeO2–ZnO–Li2O–Bi2O3–CsCl glasses.
