This fiber owns a random air hole distribution in the cladding. The measured minimum loss of this kind of fiber is 10 dB·m-1 at 660 nm. These fibers can sustain only a single mode at least over wavelength ranging from 660 nm to 980 nm.展开更多

Because of the nature of femtosecond laser's ultra short pulse duration and high energy density, in essence the laser glass interaction mechanism is changed. Based on multiphoton ionization, collisional ionization and the network depolymerization in the borate glass, production of the plasma drives the microstructure rearrangement near the laser beam focusing area. From the structure of glass and crystal analysis, we conclude that the complicated borate groups containing BO 3 and BO 4 units inside the glass are converted into(B 3O 6) -3 anion rings.展开更多

Our experiments demonstrate that many of the features previously attributed to photonic crystal fibres with perfect arrangement of air holes, in particular, photonic bandgap guidance, can also be obtained in the fibre. Additionally, this fibre exhibits a second guided mode with both the two-lobe patterns, and each pattern is in different colour.展开更多

The influence of impurities and hydroxyl groups on defects is discussed. The results show that ES silica glasses containing high OH and few defects are much stable under fs laser irradiation. It is also verified that Si E_δ~′center formation has no direct relation with chloride ions.展开更多
