Abstract:This paper presents a new and simple design of gas cell for the use of intra–cavity fibre laser sensors. This design utilizes gradient–index fibres for collimation to realize a miniature gas cell of very small diameter. By using the Gaussian field approximation and ray transformation, the gas cell is analyzed and optimized. It is found that gradient–index fibre based cells could achieve lower coupling loss of nearly 10 dB at a separation of 20 mm and allow for additional tolerance to certain misalignments, in … Show more
