英文摘要： The photonic device based on the microstructure optical fiber infiltrated with functional materials, combining the physical effects of functional materials under external fields with the fiber microstructure, shows advantages of flexibility in design, tunability under external fields, easy to integration and all in fiber. As a new type of photoelectric functional material, magnetic fluid has the property of refractive index adjustable, birefringence, dichroism, magnetic dispersion, Faraday effect, field dependent transmission and superparamagnetism. It provides a new carrier and breakthrough for the study on microstructure optical fiber infiltrated with functional materials. In this project, the microstructure optical fiber selectively infiltrated with magnetic fluid (MFMOF) which shows superior performance is to be designed based on the theory of optical waveguide and the finite element method. By utilizing microscope technology to control probe movement accurately and UV glue curing functions, the microstructure optical fiber air holes will be plugged selectively. The relationships between infilling parameters such as pressure, temperature, fiber structure and infilling rate, length in the magnetic fluid infilling process will be established. The MFMOF will then be fabricated. The characteristics of MFMOF, such as loss, polarization, modes coupling and filtering, will be measured in this project. The mechanism and characteristics of resonance between core modes and defect modes in the MFMOF will be revealed by the combination of theory and experiment results. Based on the research of MFMOF, it is expected to deepen the understanding of the interaction between functional materials, micro-nano medium and lights. This project will lay the foundation for the application of magnetic fluid infilling microstructure fibers in modulator, sensor, filter and optical switch.
