AbstractIn this paper, we propose an in-process measurement method of the diameter of micro-optical fiber such as a tapered optical fiber. The proposed technique is based on analyzing optically scattered light generated by standing wave illumination. The proposed method is significant in that it requires an only limited measurement range and does not require a high dynamic range sensor. These properties are suitable for in-process measurement. This experiment verified that the proposed method could measure a fiber diameter as stable as ± 0.01 μm under an air turbulence environment. As a result of comparing the measured diameter distribution with those by scanning electron microscopy, it was confirmed that the proposed method has a measurement accuracy better than several hundred nanometers.

Periodic Standing Waves

We establish existence of periodic standing waves for a model to describe the propagation of a light pulse inside an optical fiber taking into account the Kerr effect. To this end, we apply the Lyapunov Center Theorem taking advantage that the corresponding standing wave equations can be rewritten as a Hamiltonian system. Furthermore, some of these solutions are approximated by using a Newton-type iteration, combined with a collocation-spectral strategy to discretize the system of standing wave equations. Our numerical simulations are found to be in accordance with our analytical results.

Complex Crystal

It is well known that a standing electron wavefield can be set up in a crystal such that its intensity peaks at the atomic sites or between the sites or in the case of more complex crystal, at one or another type of a site. The effect is usually referred to as channelling but this term is not entirely appropriate; by analogy with the more established particle channelling, electrons would have to be described as channelling either through the channels or through the channel walls, depending on the diffraction conditions.

Acceleration Voltage

For crystalline materials, an incident plane wave of electrons under conditions of strong dynamical scattering sets up a standing wave within the crystal. The intensity modulations of this standing wave within the crystal unit cell are a function of the incident beam orientation and the acceleration voltage. As the scattering events (such as inner shell excitations) that lead to characteristic x-ray production are highly localized, the x-ray intensities in turn, are strongly determined by the orientation and the acceleration voltage. For a given acceleration voltage or wavelength of the incident wave, it has been shown that this orientation dependence of the characteristic x-ray emission, termed the “Borrmann effect”, can also be used as a probe for determining specific site occupations of elemental additions in single crystals.
