This study presents two novel tunable erbium doped fiber ring laser (EDFRL) configurations based on loop EDFA design and double-pass EDFA design, respectively to achieve an ultra-wideband tuning range and stable single-longitudinal-mode lasing operation. A micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) based optical tunable band pass filter was utilized as the wavelength selection element. Output spectral and power characteristics of these EDFRLs were experimentally analyzed and discussed. The EDFRLs had moderate and stable output power level (~-3 dBm) over 70 nm tuning range that covers C+L band. Moreover, the proposed EDFRLs could also suppress the undesired multi-longitudinal-modes successfully and have a high (~60 dB) OSNR level in whole tuning range.

Measurement of refractive index which is one of the distinctive properties of materials is commonly used in many fields such as industrial and biomedical applications. From the refractive index measurement methods, the one based on fiber optic stands out with their provided advantages. In this study, firstly a simple, reliable and sensitive Fresnel reflection based fiber optic refractometer was setup, then the refractive indexes of various liquids were measured using this setup at different times. When the measurement results are compared with the results taken with a reference Abbe Refractometer, the deviation ratio was found to be less than %1.

Optical fiber technology is widely used in sensor applications as well as its usage in communication systems due to their important advantages. In this study, a novel and simple optical fiber sensor structure has been developed by coating the surface of a multimode optical fiber ST connector with a PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) thin film which is sensitive to different volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Depending on the type and the amount of VOC sensed, Fresnel reflection occurring at the sensor coating changes. The proposed sensor structure based on this fundamental principle was tested using a wavelength independent optical experimental setup. The results obtained have shown that the developed sensor structure can widely be used in various industrial applications due to their high selectivity, sensitivity and reproducibility performance to detect and measure the different VOCs such as acetone, acetonitrile, propanal, oXylene and trichloroethylene.

A compact tunable C+L band erbium-doped fiber ring laser (EDFRL) with micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) based optical tunable bandpass filter was developed. The effects of erbium-doped fiber (EDF) length, output coupling ratio and pump power levels on its spectral characteristics have been analysed and optimized experimentally. With the parameters of EDF length of 6 m, output coupler ratio of 90:10 and both pump powers of 120 mW, a moderate output power level (∼+4.5 dBm) and a wide wavelength tuning range (∼80 nm) covering both C- and L- bands have been achieved.

Gain clamping performance in an L-Band EDFA based on a lasing structure using a symmetrical narrowband FBG couple, has been analyzed experimentally. By optimizing the peak reflection wavelength of the FBG, a high clamped gain (over 27 dB) was obtained with a 0.1 dB ripple and a ∼ 25 dB dynamic range at 1585 nm.

In long-haul and high-bit-rate optical fiber transmission systems Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) is one of the main reasons for pulse broadening. In order to reduce PMD based problems, current studies rely on novel PMD compensators and low-PMD fiber productions. In this paper, after describing theoretical information about PMD and optical fiber spinning process, different spin profiles are examined. Comparative analysis of spin profiles is made and spin parameters giving successful results for low-PMD fibers are obtained for each spin profile. Simulation results show that for fixed spin period of 1 m 2.76 turns/m and 5.64 turns/m are proper spin amplitude values for sinusoidal and amplitude modulated (AM) spin profiles, respectively, while 3.40 turns/m and 3.75 turns/m are recommended spin amplitudes for triangular and trapezoidal spin profiles, respectively. Using these parameters, related spin profiles give better differential group delay (DGD) reduction results individually.

Measurement of refractive index which is one of the distinctive properties of materials is commonly used in many fields such as quality control of food industry, biomedical applications, biochemical analysis and measurement of environmental pollution. From the refractive index measurement methods, the one based on fiber optic stands out with their provided advantages. In this study, firstly, a simple, reliable and highly sensitive Fresnel reflection based fiber optic refractometer was setup, then the refractive indexes of various liquids were measured using this setup at different times. When the measurement results are compared with material science data sheet (MSDS) values, the percent error was found to be less than %1. Moreover, the long term stability of ethanol’s refractive index was examined and the refractive index variation of salt-water was obtained as a function of the salt concentration.

In this study, we experimentally demonstrate a C+L band tunable erbium-doped fiber ring laser (EDFRL) based on a loop design of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA). With the proposed EDFRL architecture, the forward and backward amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) signals of a bi-directionally pumped loop EDFA are combined in a 3-dB coupler and redirected to the tunable ring laser through a wideband optical circulator. An optical tunable bandpass filter (TBPF) with a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) is used in order to select lasing wavelength from a wide range from 1525 nm to 1610 nm. In this study, firstly, the length of erbium-doped fiber (EDF) is changed to optimize the laser output power and the tuning wavelength range while the output tap coupler ratio is 50%. The results have shown that six-meter of EDF has a wider tuning wavelength range and more stable laser output characteristics than 7.5 meters of EDF. Secondly, the effect of coupling ratio on the output power and tuning performance of EDFRL is investigated. As it is expected, the lasing output power of proposed EDFRL is higher at 50% output coupler tap ratio than 10% output coupler tap ratio. On the other hand, the wavelength tuning range is wider when the output tap coupler ratio is 10%. As a result, the proposed loop EDFA based EDFRL structure can be used in wideband optical transmission and sensor applications due to its 70 nm wide tuning range which covers C+L band and a high output power over 0 dBm.

Fiber optical sensors have become popular among the current sensor technologies due to their some advantages. In this study, the sensitivity and selectivity of reflection type fiber optical sensors are investigated using the sensing materials of CuPc, H2Pc, CoPc and PVP synthesized by TÜBİTAK Marmara Research Centre Sensor Group. The developed fiber optical volatile organic compounds (VOC) sensors are used to detect some common industrial VOC such as O-Xylene, Acetone, Chloroform, Trichloroethylene, Acetonitrile and Propanol. The basic principle of the sensor structure is based on the optical reflections occurring from the sensing layer at the fiber end which depends on the amount of VOC absorbed. The relative changes in the reflected power depending on the refractive index change in the nano cavity interferometrical sensing layer was analyzed through the simulations and then experimentally measured for four types of optical fiber VOC sensors.
