| Abstract | We report the direct measurement of the electrostrictive contribution to the nonlinear refractive index n/sub 2/ in standard optical fibers for telecommunications. The fiber under test (FUT) is inserted between two flat electrodes to induce a quasi-static intense electric field in the fiber core. The FUT is kept in a straight line to preserve the polarization, controlled by a polarizer. Because of the Kerr effect and the electrostriction, the refractive index slightly changed, and the phase shift induced on the probe light is measured by means of an interferometric technique. To minimize acoustical and mechanical noises, the whole interferometer was kept in a vacuum, and a feedback control was added to the reference arm of the interferometer. This technique has several advantages, leading to a reliable measurement of n/sub 2/: the applied electric field is uniform over the fiber cross section, its intensity can be accurately calculated from the applied voltage, and the field direction is exactly known. Moreover, by controlling the polarization state of the light propagating in the FUT, the electrostriction effect can be discriminated from the Kerr effect. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
