  2. 1. Applications of monolithic fiber interferometers and actively controlled fibers

    Author : Patrik Rugeland; Fredrik Laurell; Walter Margulis; Miguel Andrés; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber; fiber Bragg grating; micro-structured fiber; add drop multiplexer; fiber interferometer; microwave photonics; temperature sensor;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis was to develop applications of monolithic fiber devices and actively controlled fibers. A special twin-core fiber known as a ‘Gemini’ fiber was used to construct equal arm-length fiber interferometers, impervious to temperature and mechanical perturbations. READ MORE

  4. 2. Photosensitivity, chemical composition gratings and optical fiber based components

    Author : Michael Fokine; KTH; []
    Keywords : optical fibers; fiber bragg gratings; photosensitivity; thermal stability; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The different topics of this thesis include high-temperaturestable fiber Bragg gratings, photosensitivity and fiber basedcomponents. Fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) are wavelength dispersiverefractive index structures manufactured through UV exposure ofoptical fibers. READ MORE

  5. 3. Laser processing of Silica based glass

    Author : Patrik Holmberg; Fredrik Laurell; Valerio Pruneri; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber Bragg Gratings; photosensitivity; Glass; laser machining; optical fibers; fiber sensor; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The main topic of this thesis work is photosensitivity and photo-structuring of optical fibers and bulk glass. Although research in the field of photosensitivity in glass and optical fibers has been ongoing for more than three decades, the underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. READ MORE

  6. 4. Technology for photonic components in silica/silicon material structure

    Author : Lech Wosinski; KTH; []
    Keywords : silica-on-silicon technology; PECVD; plasma deposition; photonic integrated circuits; planar waveguide devices; UV Bragg gratings; photosensitivity; arrayed waveguide gratings; multimode interference couplers; add-drop multiplexers;

    Abstract : The main objectives of this thesis were to develop a lowtemperature PECVD process suitable for optoelectronicintegration, and to optimize silica glass composition forUV-induced modifications of a refractive index in PECVDfabricated planar devices. The most important achievement isthe successful development of a low temperature silicadeposition, which for the first time makes it is possible tofabricate good quality low loss integrated components whilekeeping the temperature below 250oC during the entirefabrication process.
