A miniature, fully optically controlled, dielectric, opto-thermally actuated tweezer/micro-gripper that is suitable for the manipulation of small objects is presented. The tweezer/micro-gripper is formed at the tip of an optical fiber and utilizes a mid-power laser diode for its actuation. Read More …
Miniature, all-silica, fiber-optic sensors capable of independent measurement of at least two different parameters arepresented. Sensors were produced by a micromachining process based on the selective etching of specially designed phosphorous-doped optical fibers and an assembly-procedure that included fiber cleaving, Read More …
This paper presents a micro-machined, high-resolution refractive index sensor suitable for monitoring of small changes in the composition of gases. Experimentally demonstrated measurement resolution, induced by gas composition variation, proved to be in the range of 5×10-9 of a Refractive Read More …
The design and fabrication of a miniature fiber Fabry-Perot pressure sensor with a diameter of 125 μm are presented. The essential element in the process is a thin SiO2 diaphragm that is fusion spliced at the hollow end of an Read More …
This paper presents a method for the efficient production of all-fiber semi reflective mirrors suitable for fiber sensors and other all-fiber device applications. The mirrors are obtained by the short duration etching of a standard single mode fiber in hydrofluoric Read More …
This paper presents an optical fiber-field access device suitable for use in different in-line fiber-optics systems and fiber-based photonics components. The proposed device u tilizes a thin silica micro-wire positioned in-between two lead-in single mode fibers. The thin micro-wire acts Read More …
This paper presents a maskless micromachining process that can reform or reshape a section of an optical fiber into a complex 3-D photonic microstructure. This proposed micromachining process is based on the etching rate control achieved by the introduction of Read More …
This letter presents a refractive index sensor created at the tip of an optical fiber that utilizes silica nanowire within a radius of between 225 nm and 600 nm, as a sensing element. Sensitivity in excess of 800 nm/RIU was Read More …
This paper presents a highly-sensitive, miniature, all-silica, dual parameter fiber-optic Fabry-Perot sensor, which is suitable for independent measurement of the refractive index and the temperature of the fluid surrounding the sensor. The experimental sensor was produced by a micromachining process Read More …
This paper presents an in-line, short cavity Fabry-Perot fiber optic strain sensor. A short air cavity inside a single-mode fiber is created by the fusion splicing of appropriately micro machined fiber tips. A precise tuning of the cavity length is Read More …
