Polarization dependence of asymmetric off-resonance long period fiber gratings
Optics Express
|January 7, 2017
Abstract:
We present the polarization dependence of strong asymmetric long period fiber gratings written on tapered fibers. We found that for off-resonance conditions the spectral response and the output mode strongly depend on the input state of polarization. We utilize this dependence to obtain a mode selective device and demonstrate radially polarized and azimuthally polarized fiber lasers based on these asymmetric long period fiber gratings.

Potential Due to a Polarized Object

A neutral atom consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged electron cloud. When placed in an external electric field, the external electric force pulls the electrons and nucleus apart, opposite to the intrinsic attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. The opposing forces balance each other with a slight shift between the center of masses of the nucleus and the electron cloud, resulting in a polarized atom. On the other hand, a few molecules, like water,...

Group Polarization

Group polarization is the strengthening of an original group attitude following the discussion of views within a group (Teger & Pruitt, 1967). That is, if a group initially favors a viewpoint, after discussion the group consensus is likely a stronger endorsement of the viewpoint. Conversely, if the group was initially opposed to a viewpoint, group discussion would likely lead to stronger opposition.
