Microfluidic and bio-applications of optical microfibres
This paper reviews the application of optical microfibers to microfluidics and bio-sensing
An updated review of nanotechnologies for the space elevator tether
The space elevator tether requires an extraordinary specific ultimate strength (ratio between ultimate strength and density) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been identified as the ideal candidate because of their astonishing strength. This paper reviews CNT manufacture and measured strengths
Optical microfiber passive components
A review of passive components based on optical microfibers is presented
Resonantly enhanced Faraday rotation in a microcoil current sensor
A proof-of-principle experimental demonstration with theoretical modeling is presented for resonantly enhanced Faraday rotation in a microcoil current sensor. The recirculation of resonant light within the coil gives rise to an accumulated polarization rotation and thus improved responsivity. According to simulations, microcoil resonators with sharper resonances could offer significantly larger enhancements. This new type of current sensor has the potential to be ultrafast, compact, and low-cost
Embedded optical microfiber coil resonator
The embedding of an optical microfiber coil resonator in Teflon is demonstrated. Resonances in excess of 9dB and Q-factors greater than 6000 have been observed. The device is compact, robust and portable
Optical fibre nanowires and related structures
The fabrication of optical fibre nanowires by flame-brushing represents a top-down method to reliably manufacture the longest, most robust nanowires from silica and compound glasses. Small surface roughness and long-length diameter homogeneity provide the low-level of loss needed for optical applications. A considerable fraction of the transmitted power propagates in the evanescent field outside of a nanowire allowing the prompt fabrication of high-Q resonators and several sensors
Enhanced second harmonic generation in microfiber loop resonators
Silica nanowires with high nonlinearities are attractive for a variety of applications such as continuum generation and new light sources. In particular, a growing interest was shown for using these nanowires for second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG) [1-3]. However, conversion efficiencies remain low, and new methods to improve this conversion are still required. In this work we experimentally demonstrate enhanced SHG using a nonlinear microfiber loop resonator, in which the recirculation of the resonant pump wavelengths enhances the second harmonic conversion and reduces the required pump power
