Transmission enhancement of sharply bent nanoplasmonic slot waveguides
, Article Journal of the Optical Society of America B: Optical Physics ; Vol. 31, issue. 3 , 2014 , pp. 458-463 ; ISSN: 07403224 ; Hodaei, H ; Bahadori, M ; Rezaei, M ; Mehrany, K ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
The bending performance of standard nanoplasmonic slot waveguides is substantially improved by reducing the leakage loss and reflection in a systematic way. The out-of-plane power leakage is suppressed by using square metallic patches above and below the bend. The in-plane power leakage is reduced by elimination of the asymmetry between the electrical length of the inner and outer corners of the bend. The unwanted reflection is decreased by changing the shape of the outer corner of the bend. The partial reflections caused by the indentations of the modified shape destructively interfere with each other and thereby decrease the unwanted back reflection
Fibre position effects on the operation of opto-pair fibre displacement sensors

Abstract
In this article, two optical-fibre probes used in displacement measurements are reported. In one arrangement, two optical fibres with protective buffer jackets are placed together, while in the second arrangement, the protective buffer jackets are removed and the two fibres are placed with the claddings in contact, with a concomitant smaller centrecentre distance. As the core and cladding diameters are the same in both probes, the effect of the centrecentre distance on double-fibre designs can be investigated. The reflected output powers are recorded for the probes as a function of the axial distance from a reflective surface. A theoretical model is also implemented, which considers the...
