Item Metadata only A novel approach to Bragg fibre bandgap analysis: Stratified planar anti-resonant reflecting optical waveguides(IEEE, 2008) Rowland, K.; Afshar Vahid, S.; Monro, T.; Australian Conference on Optical Fibre Technology (ACOFT) (2008 : Sydney, Australia)We present a generalisation of the ARROW model, describing the topology and positions of novel features in Bragg stack bandgap spectra. Applications to Bragg bandgap fibres, including single-material hollow-core Bragg fibres, are discussed.Item Metadata only Kerr nonlinearity in small core optical fibres and nanowires: a generalised model, and application to microstructured fibres(IEEE, 2008) Afshar Vahid, S.; Monro, T.; Australian Conference on Optical Fibre Technology (ACOFT) (2008 : Sydney, Australia)We develop a generalized relation for effective nonlinear coefficients of waveguides with arbitrary refractive index profiles. Significant differences between the new definition and usual one are demonstrated in the regime of strong guidance or waveguides with sub-wavelength inclusions.Item Metadata only New tellurite glasses for erbium fibre lasers(IEEE, 2008) Ebendorff-Heidepriem, H.; Foo, H.; Li, Y.; Oermann, M.; Monro, T.; Australian Conference on Optical Fibre Technology (ACOFT) (2008 : Sydney, Australia)We report on La- and Er-doped tellurite glasses that demonstrate improved properties for rare earth fibre lasers in the mid-infrared.Item Metadata only Spectroscopy of erbium in La³⁺-doped tellurite glass & fibres(IEEE, 2008) Oermann, M.; Ebendorff-Heidepriem, H.; Li, Y.; Monro, T.; Australian Conference on Optical Fibre Technology (ACOFT) (2008 : Sydney, Australia)We study the spectroscopic properties of erbium doped tellurite glass and the effect of co-doping with lanthanum. This is a route towards the development of versatile fibre lasers for the mid-infrared.
