Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of CO2 geological sequestration, and provides a whole-process multi-parameter monitoring device and method for simulating CO2 geological sequestration and use thereof. A large-scale reactor body is developed, and a geological reservoir at a depth of 800 to 3000 meters is simulated. A modular built-in model device is researched and developed, a multi-type and variable-structure reservoir remodeling technology is developed, and mutual coupling of modules can be achieved. The design idea of separating the pressure reactor from the built-in sample model is adopted in the device. The confining pressure, the pore pressure, the temperature gradient, and the axial load of the device can be independently controlled through a temperature control mechanism and a loading mechanism respectively, so that the restoration of the state of in-situ stresses in the reservoir is realized.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a dual-layer Bragg grating that can be used as a dual-bandpass filter. In one embodiment, the dual-layer Bragg grating comprises at least two layers, each having an anti-symmetrical structure. In addition, the anti-symmetrical structures can have different pitches which are tuned to different bands. That is, the pitch of the anti-symmetrical structure in one layer can be set to reflect a first band in a received optical signal while the pitch of the anti-symmetrical structure in the other layer is set to reflect a second band in the received optical signal.

Abstract: Process margin relaxation is provided in relation to a compensated-for process via a first optical device, fabricated to satisfy an operational specification when a compensated-for process is within a first tolerance range; a second optical device, fabricated to satisfy the operational specification when the compensated-for process is within second tolerance range, different than the first tolerance range; a first optical switch connected to an input and configured to output an optical signal received from the input to one of the first optical device and the second optical device; and a second optical switch configured to combine outputs from the first optical device and the second optical device.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe optical splitters that receive an optical signal using a single mode waveguide where the signal is in a fundamental mode. An asymmetric taper can be used to convert a portion of the optical signal from the fundamental mode into a different order mode (e.g., the first-order mode). The optical splitter also includes an optical mode multiplexer with two branches. The portion of the optical signal having the first-order mode is transferred to a first branch of the optical mode mux while the remaining portion of the optical signal having the fundamental mode is transmitted using a second branch of the optical mode mux. Further, coupling the portion of the optical signal into the first branch converts the optical signal from the first-order mode back to the fundamental mode. Thus, both branches in the optical mode mux output optical signals in the fundamental mode.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a waveguide crossing that permits at least two optical signals to cross in two different directions. For example, one optical signal can propagate from left to right through the center of the waveguide crossing at the same time a second optical signal propagates up and down through the center of the crossing. In one embodiment, a circular disc is disposed at the center of the waveguide crossing through which the two (or more) optical signals pass. The shape of the circular disc can provide low insertion loss as the respective optical signals propagate between respective pairs of waveguides, as well as minimize cross talk between the two optical signals.
