“…Actually, losses are located between 0.35 dB/m and 0.7 dB/m depending on the glass quality and microstructure geometry. To our knowledge, these are the lowest attenuations reported to date on chalcogenide based MOFs [27,29]. It is worthy to remind that to ensure accurate core propagation losses measurements in MOF (or even simply double index fiber), the clad must be depleted.…”

Abstact:The aim of this paper is to present an overview of the recent achievements of our group in the fabrication and optical characterizations of As 2 S 3 microstructured optical fibers (MOFs). Firstly, we study the synthesis of high purity arsenic sulfide glasses. Then we describe the use of a versatile process using mechanical drilling for the preparation of preforms and then the drawing of MOFs including suspended core fibers. Low losses MOFs are obtained by this way, with background level of losses reaching less than 0.5 dB/m. Optical characterizations of these fibers are then reported, especially dispersion measurements. The feasibility of all-optical regeneration based on a Mamyshev regenerator is investigated, and the generation of a broadband spectrum between 1 µm and 2.6 µm by femto second pumping around 1.5 µm is presented.

“…A fabricação relativamente fácil de fibra óptica a partir de vidros calcogenetos permite o confinamento da luz necessário para que a soma dos diferentes efeitos não lineares resultem num supercontínuo de luz. [94][95][96] Recentemente, a geração de um supercontínuo de luz cobrindo a faixa 1,4 -13,3 µm foi obtida numa fibra de calcogeneto. 97 A alta não linearidade dos vidros calcogenetos, como o deslocamento Raman, também pode ser usado para a emissão de luz no infravermelho.…”

publicado na web em 05/02/2016 GLASSY MATERIALS AND LIGHT: PART 1. 2015 is the Year of Light, according to UNESCO. Chemistry has a close relationship with light and one of the materials that allows such synergy is glass. Depending on the chemical composition of the glass, it is possible to achieve technological applications for the whole range of wavelengths extending from the region of the microwave to gamma rays. This diversity of applications opens a large range of research where chemistry, as a central science, overlaps the fields of physics, engineering, medicine, etc., generating a huge amount of knowledge and technological products used for humanity. This review article aimed at discussing some families of glasses, illustrating some applications. Due to the extension of the theme, and all points raised, we thought it would be good to divide the article into two parts. In the first part we focus on the properties of heavy metal oxide glasses, fluoride glasses and chalcogenide glasses. In the second part we emphasize the properties of glassy thin films prepared by sol-gel methodology and some applications, of both glasses as the films in photonics, and more attention was given to the nonlinear properties and uses of photonic fibers.

“…In published papers on preparing chalcogenide MOFs with a solid-core, the following techniques of preform manufacturing have been used: "stack and draw" (assembly of capillaries inside the substrate tube) (Brilland et al, 2006;Desevedavy et al, 2008), molding (with use of silica glass pattern of the specified photonic crystal design) (Coulombier et al, 2010;Conseil et al, 2011), and drilling (El-Amraoui et al, 2010). Usually, the thin capillaries are drawn from the chalcogenide glass tube prepared by centrifugal casting.…”

The recent developments on chalcogenide glass hollow-core microstructured optical fibers (HC-MOFs) are presented. The comparative analysis of simulated optical properties for chalcogenide HC-MOFs of negative curvature with different size and number of capillaries is given.The technique for the manufacture of microstructured chalcogenide preforms, which includes the assembly of the substrate glass tube and 8-10 capillaries, is described. Further trends to improve the optical transmission in chalcogenide negative curvature hollow-core photonic crystal fibers are considered.
