We demonstrated long-period grating (LPG) inscription on polymer functionalized optical microfibers and its applications in optical sensing. Optical microfibers were functionalized with ultraviolet-sensitive polymethyl methacrylate jackets and, thus, LPGs
In order to test mild aspheric surface directly without other null optics, the digital plane method is proposed. When departure of the tested aspheric surface is mild, a sphere mirror can be used as the reference surface. The phase distribution can be mea
