    Abstract: Electromagnetic radiation barriers and waveguides, including barriers and waveguides for light, are disclosed. The barriers and waveguides are fabricated by directing charged particles, for example, ions, into crystalline substrates, for example, single-crystal sapphire substrates, to modify the crystal structure and produce a region of varying refractive index. These substrates are then heated to temperatures greater than 200 degrees C. to stabilize the modified crystal structure and provide the barrier to electromagnetic radiation. Since the treatment stabilizes the crystal structure at elevated temperature, for example, above 500 degrees C. or above 1000 degrees C., the barriers and waveguides disclosed are uniquely adapted for use in detecting conditions in harsh environments, for example, at greater than 200 degrees C. Sensors, systems for using sensors, and methods for fabricating barriers and waveguides are also disclosed.

The first depressed cladding typically has an outer radius of between about 9 microns and 15 microns and a refractive-index difference with the outer cladding of between about −5.5×10−3 and −2.5×10−3. The second depressed cladding typically has an outer radius of between about 38 microns and 42 microns and a refractive-index difference with the first depressed cladding of between about −0.5×10−3 and 0.5×10−3.

    Abstract: A multimode optical fiber includes a central core, an inner cladding, a buried trench, and an outer cladding (e.g., an outer optical cladding). Typically, the optical fiber's central core is a glass-based central core having an alpha-index profile (i.e., a graded-index profile), an outer radius r1, and a maximum refractive index difference Δn1 with respect to the outer cladding. The central core's alpha-index profile has a minimum refractive index at the central core's outer radius r1 that corresponds to a refractive index difference Δnend with respect to the outer cladding. The inner cladding has an outer radius r2, a width w2, and a refractive index difference Δn2 with respect to the outer cladding. The buried trench has an outer radius rext, a width w3, and a refractive index difference Δn3 with respect to the outer cladding. The multimode optical fiber typically has reduced bending losses, a high bandwidth at wavelengths of both 850 nanometers and 1300 nanometers, and a reduced cladding effect.
