    摘要: A new method for preparing low loss multimode and monomode glass optical fibers which avoids casting or pouring the core and clad melts is disclosed. The new technique is based on a reactive-gas-transport approach which avoids contamination from absorbing impurities and scattering centers by reacting the glass melt with reactive gases which remove impurities and increase the refractive index of the fiber.

    摘要: A three-axis fiber optic vector magnetometer is provided for measuring bothhe direction and magnitude of a DC or low frequency magnetic field. The magnetometer includes an optical interferometer system including a sensing fiber arm disposed with three respective sensing portions perpendicular to one another and attached to a uni-directional sensor material. The interferometer system also includes a reference fiber arm and a laser light source for generating and introducing a laser light into both of the arms. Respective biasing devices generate a reference AC magnetic bias and a respective reference frequency in the three sensing portions. A detecting device detects a reference light signal from the reference fiber arm and the magnetically altered sensing light signal from the sensing fiber arm and forms an interferometer output signal. Respective separating devices then separate the respective magnetically induced interferometer signals at respective ones of the frequencies and produce a respective output signal indicative thereof. This output signal is thus indicative of the magnetic field strength in the respective direction and a vector sum of the strengths shows the magnetic field direction. Preferably, the sensor material is an annealed amorphous metallic glass strip and the separating means are lock-in amplifiers in their phase sensitive detection modes. The biasing devices are also preferably respective Helmholtz coils and a feedback system is provided for feeding back the output of the respective separating devices to the respective biasing devices.

    摘要: A fiber optic magnetometer for detecting DC magnetic fields includes a first optical fiber having a magnetostrictive jacket thereon which defines a sensing arm, and a second fiber defining a reference arm. A first AC magnetic field of frequency .omega..sub.o and a second AC field of frequency .omega..sub.s are imposed on the magnetostrictive jacket so as to cause a time varying optical path length change, having .omega..sub.o, (.omega..sub.o +.omega..sub.s), and (.omega..sub.o -.omega..sub.s) components in the sensing arm fiber. This induces a corresponding time varying phase shift, also having the above components, in light transmitted through the sensing arm fiber which is detected by a phase detector. The phase detector produces a signal proportional to the phase shift, this signal being passed to a lock-in amplifier set to amplify at .omega..sub.o. .omega..sub.s is sufficiently small such that the lock-in amplifier filters all components other than the .omega..sub.o, (.omega..sub.o +.omega..sub.s), and (.omega..sub.o -.omega..sub.s) components. The sum of these components changes in magnitude upon exposure of the magnetostrictive jacket to a DC field, thereby indicating the presence of a DC field. The lock-in amplifier output is plotted on an oscilloscope versus the second AC field of frequency .omega..sub.s to give a loop which shifts in position when the device is exposed to an external DC field.

    摘要: A fiber optic magnetometer for detecting DC magnetic fields includes a first optical fiber having a magnetostrictive jacket thereon which defines a sensing arm, and a second fiber defining a reference arm. An AC magnetic field of frequency .omega..sub.o and constant amplitude is imposed on the magnetostrictive jacket so as to cause a time varying optical path length change, having an .omega..sub.o component, in the sensing arm fiber. This induces a corresponding time varying phase shift, also having an .omega..sub.o component, in light transmitted through the sensing arm fiber which is detected by a phase detector. The phase detector produces a signal proportional to the phase shift, this signal being passed to a lock-in amplifier set to amplify at .omega..sub.o. The lock-in amplifier produces an output signal proportional to the amplitude of the .omega..sub.o component, wherein this amplitude is proportional to any DC magnetic fields to which the device is exposed.
