Abstract Angle sensors based on the laser autocollimation are often employed to evaluate surface profiles of a target of interest. The authors have developed a femtosecond laser angle sensor, in which a spectrometer or an optical spectrum analyzer with a single-mode fiber is employed as the photodetector for simultaneous capturing of the multiple optical modes. In this paper, the concept of the femtosecond laser angle sensor is applied to evaluate the surface profile of a target of interest. An optical setup is designed in such a way that each mode in the spectrum of the mode-locked femtosecond is utilized as the laser beam to measure the local slope of a measurement target at each different point to evaluate the surface profile. Some basic experiments are carried out by using the developed optical setup with a mode-locked femtosecond laser source to evaluate basic performances of the developed optical setup as an optical angle sensor.

Abstract A method for obtaining picosecond pulse sources with continuously tunable central wavelengths is demonstrated numerically and experimentally. A dissipative soliton (DS) mode-locked erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser based on the nonlinear polarization rotation provides the seed pulse with a flat-top spectral profile and a 55 nm spectral bandwidth. Then it is filtered by a wavelength-tunable super-Gaussian bandpass filter and amplified by two segments of EDFs with different doping concentrations. The output DS pulse from the EDF laser can be compressed from 5.532 ps to 0.291 ps by using a single-mode fiber (SMF-28e), while the pulse energy is about 1.6 nJ. Furthermore, the about 4 ps and 6.84 nJ pulses with continuously tunable central wavelengths ranging from 1535 to 1580 nm can be obtained by amplifying the spectrally filtered pulses. The tunable picosecond pulse source based on the extra-cavity filtering method is very useful for many practical applications because of its flexible wavelength control.

The response of ultrashort-length CO2-induced long-period fiber grating (LPFG) sensors to torsion is reported. While engraving using CO2 laser radiation, the fiber is submitted to high tension allowing the obtainment of gratings with shorter lengths, down to 2.4 mm, which is almost one order of magnitude lower than the usual. Also, the fiber is only irradiated in one side, creating an asymmetrical profile leading to highly birefringent gratings. Sensitivity to axial twists is demonstrated, with values up to 0.15 nm/(rad/m) for the resonant wavelength shift and higher than 0.03 dBm/(rad/m) for the variation in the intensity (attenuation). Discrimination between rotation directions, clockwise and counterclockwise, was observed.

We report the fabrication of a novel fiber-optic sensor device, based on the use of a microsphere conformally coated with a thin layer of zinc oxide (ZnO) by atomic layer deposition (ALD), and its use as a refractive index sensor. The microsphere was prepared on the tip of a single-mode optical fiber, on which a conformal ZnO thin film of 200 nm was deposited using an ALD process based on diethyl zinc (DEZ) and water at 100 °C. The modified fiber-optic microsphere was examined using scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Theoretical modeling has been carried out to assess the structure performance, and the performed experimental measurements carried out confirmed the enhanced sensing abilities when the microsphere was coated with a ZnO layer. The fabricated refractive index sensor was operating in a reflective mode of a Fabry–Pérot configuration, using a low coherent measurement system. The application of the ALD ZnO coating enabled for a better measurement of the refractive index of samples in the range of the refractive index allowed by the optical fiber. The proof-of-concept results presented in this work open prospects for the sensing community and will promote the use of fiber-optic sensing technologies.
