“…There would be several sorts of thermal effects which are formed depending on the components of the communication system. In other words, the thermal effect on the system depends on many factors such as the quantity, duration time, material type, and the way of effect applied (direct or indirect) [3].…”

Fiber Optic Network is an advanced and modern system technology, which is used in sending pulses of laser light inside a glass of fiber over long distances, widely used in every environment with various sorts of applications in a different field. It is well-known that the main material of fiber optics is glass, therefore it is typical that the temperature can affect the glass during the thermal expansion. This effect will be applied to the properties of the optical components such as refractive index, radius curvature of the fiber optics layers, and also there is an effect on the data transfer through the fiber optics network units. In this paper, the effect of temperature degree on the optical signal and the functions of the fiber optic network will be simulated, measured, and analyzed. The result will be discussed and the conclusion will show the serious points of thermal effects on the optical signal of a fiber-optic network.

“…The well-known variable that can best describe the performance of the gain module is the normalized heating parameter χ, which is defined as the ratio of heat generated to energy stored in the pumped gain medium [19,20]. The thermal effects of the laser gain medium are the most significant impediments [21][22][23][24][25]. In high-power laser systems, especially, the issues of thermal stress on the laser gain medium causing depolarization loss, thermally induced birefringence, and thermal lens aberrations have been carefully addressed [26][27][28][29][30].…”

The optimization of solid-state laser cavities requires a deep understanding of the gain module, the most critical laser component. This study proposes a procedure for evaluating the performance of the solid-state laser gain module. The thermal effect and energy storage characteristics are the performance criteria. A normalized heating parameter was calculated as a quantitative indicator of the performance criteria. We proposed a method to quantify the heat dissipated into the gain medium using the wavefront distortion, thermal deformation theory of the gain medium, and the ray transfer matrix method. The suggested procedure was verified by evaluating the flashlamp type Nd:YAG rod gain module, but it can also even be extended to other solid-state laser gain modules by applying the appropriate thermal deformation theory.

“…For the typical disk laser, the transverse dimension is tenfold longer than the axial dimension at least. Due to this special configuration, the heat flow direction is collinear with the direction of laser propagation, which leads to the minimizing of temperature gradient on the transverse cross section of the direction of laser propagation compared to that of the rod laser, as well as providing good beam quality [12] .…”
