    6. Investigations of the intravascular backscattering distribution of light in optical coherence tomography

      Investigations of the intravascular backscattering distribution of light in optical coherence tomography

      The inhomogeneous backscattering distribution of low-coherent light in blood vessels, which appears as waisted double fan-shaped intensity pattern, is investigated in an in vivo mouse model and flow phantom measurements using high resolution spectral domain optical coherence tomography in the 1.3 µm wavelength region. Based on a predicted orientation of the red blood cells towards laminar flow, an angular modulation of the corresponding backscattering crosssection inside the vessels is assumed. In combination with the signal attenuation in depth by absorption and scattering, a simple model of the intravascular intensity modulation is derived. The suitability of the model is demonstrated ...

    7. Photonic-crystal fiber characteristics benefit numerous applications

      Photonic-crystal fiber characteristics benefit numerous applications
      Advantages in efficiency, beam quality, scalability, and operating cost make new optical fiber technology highly competitive compared to traditional laser designs. Photonic-crystal fibers (PCFs) are among the most specialized optical lightguides. Ranging from fibers with low levels of nonlinearities supporting high-power pulses to highly nonlinear counterparts for supercontinuum generation, PCF is an attractive and versatile technology. It is based on a microstructured arrangement of low- and high-refractive-index materials. The high-index background material is typically undoped silica while the low-index region is usually provided by air holes along the fiber length. They can be made using a stack-and-draw fabrication process (see ...

    8. Femtosecond ytterbium fiber laser with photonic crystal fiber for dispersion control

      A photonic-crystal fiber provides dispersion compensation in a soliton fiber laser. The anomalous dispersion provided by the photonic-crystal fiber permits construction of a femtosecond fiber laser at 1 .mu.m wavelength without prisms or diffraction gratings. The laser produces .about.100-fs pulses with 1 nJ energy, and is a major step toward environmentally-stable all-fiber devices at 1 .mu.m.
