Characterization of the microstructures of specialty optical fibers for electric-field sensing by propagation-based x-ray phase-contrast microtomography
Abstract:In this work, we present a quantitative (statistical) 3D morphological characterization of optical fibers used in electric field sensing. The characterization technique employs propagation-based X-ray phase-contrast microcomputed tomography (micro-CT). Particularly, we investigate specialty optical fibers that contain microstructured holes that are electrooptically modified by thermal poling to induce second-order nonlinear effects (SONE). The efficiency of SONE is reflected in the characterization parameter V… Show more
