Experiment: 1(A)

Objective: Measurement of Numerical Aperture of Optical Fiber.


Equipments Required:
● Scientech 2502A Training platform with Power Supply cord.
● Optical Fiber cable.
● Numerical Aperture measurement Jig.
Theory:
Numerical aperture of any optical system is a measure of how much light can be
collected by the optical system. It is the product of the refractive index of the incident
medium and the sine of the maximum ray angle.
NA = ni * Sinθmax (ni for air is 1)
Hence, NA = sinθmax
For a step-index fiber, as in the present case, the numerical aperture is given by
2 2
N= (ncore -ncladding
)

Connection Diagram:
Procedure:
● Connect the Power Supply cord to Scientech 2502.
● Connect the frequency generator's 1 KHz, 1Vpp sine wave output to input of
emitter 1 circuit. Adjust its amplitude.
● Connect one end of fiber cable to the output socket of emitter 1 circuit and the
other end to the numerical aperture measurement jig. Hold the white screen
facing the fiber such that its cut face is perpendicular to the axis of the fiber.
● Hold the white screen with 4 concentric circles (10, 15, 20 & 25mm diameter)
vertically at a suitable distance to make the red spot from the fiber coincide with
10mm circle.

● Record the distance of screen from the fiber end L and note the diameter W of
the spot.

● Compute the numerical aperture from the formula given below.

𝑁𝐴 =
𝑊

√𝑊2+4𝐿2

 The distance from the screen is varied accordingly and coincided with one of the concentric
circles and the distance is noted.
 We further tabulate the various distances and diameters on the white screen to compute the
numerical aperture from the aforementioned formula.

Experiment: 1(B)

Objective: Study of Bending Loss.


Equipments Required:
● Scientech 2502A Training platform with Power Supply cord.
● Optical Fiber cable.
● Digital storage oscilloscope with necessary connecting probe.
● Mandrel (Cylindrical material).
Connection Diagram:

Procedure:
 Scientech 2502A is powered ON using power supply cord.
 Make the circuit connections as follows:
o Sinusoidal signal of 1KHz is generated using the function generator and given as input
to the emitter block.
o Optic Fiber Cable is connected between emitter output and detector input.
o Detector Output is connected to AC Amplifier input.
 Take measurement of amplitude of the output signal at zero turns, 1 turn, 2 turns and 3 turns
of the optic fiber wrapped around the mandrel using the DSO which should gradually be
reducing, showing loss due to macrobends.
