Development of a Versatile Near Field Optical Imaging System Derek Nowak, Portland State University Portland, Oregon Co-Authors: Justin Hiester, Deepak Vedhachalam, Zechariah K. Dzegede, Erik J. Sánchez The ability to detect optical information from optically active systems with resolutions below the diffraction limit of traditional light microscopes is of great interest of biologist and material scientists. Using the technique of Tip Enhanced Near-field Optical Microscopy, or (TENOM) (Sánchez, PRL. 1999), fluorescence imaging with ~20 nm resolution has shown to be possible. TENOM demonstrates these optical resolutions with simultaneous topographical information as well as the ability to detect with both electronic state and vibrational bond (Raman) information for single-molecule level identification. TENOM utilizes an Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) scanning method where the imaging probe has been modified to create a localized field enhancement. The microscopes ability to image in solution is an additional feature. Unfortunately, TENOM has not seen common day use as a research tool, due primary to the level of understanding needed by the user to create suitable probes and correctly operate the microscope. Our goal has been to develop a TENOM based microscope controlled by a single low cost computer, simple control circuits using FPGA data acquisition, and simplified optical system allowing for imaging with photons from almost any visible chromophore without changing …
www.fiberoptics4sale.com This video explains LC connector in details regarding its design, size, performance, connector types, and more! LC connector spec sheet download: www.fiberoptics4sale.com In this video, we will show you the basics of LC connector which has been very popular in today’s fiber optic networks. The LC Connector uses a 1.25 mm diameter ferrule. Ferrule is the white cylindrical part here. The ferrule is made of a type of ceramic called zirconia. The LC has very good performance and is highly favored for single mode fiber applications. The left side picture shows a duplex LC connector. The right side picture shows a duplex LC to SC patch cable. This picture shows the size difference between ST, SC, and LC connectors. ST connector has a cylindrical body and a bayonet locking. SC connector has a rectangular body and has a push-pull locking. Both ST and SC connector use 2.5mm diameter ferrule which is the white cylindrical part shown here and here. LC connector is only half the size of a ST or SC connector. It uses a 1.25mm diameter ferrule, the tiny white cylindrical shown here. In the same space, you can double your fiber connections with LC connector since it occupies only half the size of a SC or ST connector. There are several types of LC connectors for different applications. The top row shows simplex LC connectors. The bottom row shows duplex LC connectors. The connector housing’s color represents the connector’s type and application. Beige color is …
www.fiberoptics4sale.com EDFA stands for Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier and it is one type of many different optical amplifiers. Optical amplifiers amplify an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. This process is significantly cheaper and started a fiber optic revolution. Put simply, EDFA stands for Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier and it is one type of many different optical amplifiers. When an optical signal is transmitted over a long distance, such as from New York to San Francisco, the optical signal has to be amplified many times in between. This is because of signal loss from fiber attenuation, connector losses, fiber splice losses, etc. Before optical amplifier was invented, the optical signal had to be first converted to electrical signal, amplified, and then converted back to optical signal again. This process was very complicated and expensive. Then optical amplifiers such as EDFA were invented. Optical amplifiers amplify an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. This process is significantly cheaper and started a fiber optic revolution. Now let’s take a close look at how EDFA works. The top left picture shows a simple diagram of how EDFA works. The optical signal, such as a 1550nm signal, enters an EDFA from the input. The 1550nm signal is combined with a 980nm pump laser with a WDM device. The signal and the pump laser pass through a length of fiber doped with Erbium … Video Rating: 5 / 5
www.fiberoptics4sale.com This video explains single mode fiber in plain English. You will learn light ray theory and waveguide theory of fiber mode. Before going further, you should know the typical structure of a single mode fiber. The left illustration shows that single mode fiber has a core with a diameter of 8 micron, a cladding with a diameter of 125um, and a buffer with a diameter of 250um. The core and cladding are made of fused silica, a type of glass, and the buffer is typically acrylic. The right illustration shows how a glass fiber guides light. Lights enter into the core and is guided along the fiber. What is a single mode fiber exactly? This picture shows a simplified light ray explanation. The top two fibers are multi-mode fibers. Multimode fibers can have a core diameter ranging from 50 microns to 200 microns or even more. The typically light ray explanation is that the core size is large enough, so that multiple light rays can enter into the core at different angles and are guided along the fiber. Here, different light rays at different angles are called different fiber modes. Since multimode fibers can guide many modes, that is why there are called MULTI Mode fiber. On the other hand, the bottom fiber is a single mode fiber. The typically light ray explanation is that the core is so tiny, that only one light ray which is perpendicular at the core interface can enter into the core and is guided. Since there is only one mode, that is why it is called SINGLE … Video Rating: 4 / 5
