We report on a new high resolution apparatus for measuring magnetostriction suitable for use at cryogenic temperatures in pulsed high magnetic fields which we have developed at the Hochfeld-Magnetlabor Dresden. Optical fibre strain gauges based on Fibre Bragg Gratings are used to measure the strain in small (~1mm) samples. We describe the implementation of a fast measurement system capable of resolving strains in the order of $10^{-7}$ with a full bandwidth of 47kHz, and demonstrate its use on single crystal samples of GdSb and GdSi.

We present a high resolution method for measuring magnetostriction in millisecond pulsed magnetic fields at cryogenic temperatures with a sensitivity of $1.11times10^{-11}/sqrt{rm Hz}$. The sample is bonded to a thin piezoelectric plate, such that when the samples length changes, it strains the piezoelectric and induces a voltage change. This method is more sensitive than a fiber-Bragg grating method. It measures two axes simultaneously instead of one. The gauge is small and versatile, functioning in DC and millisecond pulsed magnetic fields. We demonstrate its use by measuring the magnetostriction of Ca$_3$Co$_{1.03}$Mn$_{0.97}$O$_6$ single crystals in pulsed magnetic fields. By comparing our data to new and previously published results from a fiber-Bragg grating magnetostriction setup, we confirm that this method detects magnetostriction effects. We also demonstrate the small size and versatility of this technique by measuring angle dependence with respect to the applied magnetic field in a rotator probe in 65 T millisecond pulsed magnetic fields.
High-resolution magnetostriction measurement of $Delta L/Lsim10^{-6}$ at a speed of 5 MHz is performed, using optical filter method as the detection scheme for the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based strain monitor is performed under 35-millisecond pulsed high magnetic fields up to 45 T at 2.2 K. The resolution of magnetostriction is about the same order as the conventionally reported value from FBG based magnetostriction measurement systems for millisecond pulsed magnetic fields. The measurement speed is $sim$100 times the conventional ones. Present system can be a faster alternative for the conventional FBG based magnetostriction measurement system for millisecond pulsed high magnetic fields.
A high-speed 100 MHz strain monitor using a fiber Bragg grating, an optical filter, and a mode-locked optical fiber laser has been devised, which has a resolution of $Delta L/Lsim10^{-4}$. The strain monitor is sufficiently fast and robust for the magnetostriction measurements of magnetic materials under ultrahigh magnetic fields generated with destructive pulse magnets, where the sweep rate is in the range of 10-100 T/$mu$s. As a working example, the magnetostriction of LaCoO$_{3}$ was measured at room temperature, 115 K, and 7$sim$4.2 K up to a maximum magnetic field of 150 T. The smooth $B^{2}$ dependence and the first-order transition were observed at 115 K and 7$sim$4.2 K, respectively, reflecting the field-induced spin-state evolution.
A blazed chirped Bragg grating in a planar silica waveguide device was used to create an integrated diffractive element for a spectrometer. The grating diffracts light from a waveguide and creates a wavelength dependent focus in a manner similar to a bulk diffraction grating spectrometer. An external imaging system is used to analyse the light, later device iterations plan to integrate detectors to make a fully integrated spectrometer. Devices were fabricated with grating period chirp rates in excess of 100nm/mm, achieving a focal length of 5.5mm. Correction of coma aberrations resulted in a device with a footprint of 20mm x 10mm, a peak FWHM resolution of 1.8nm, a typical FWHM resolution of 2.6nm and operating with a 160nm bandwidth centered at 1550nm.
We here report magnetostriction measurements under pulsed megagauss fields using a high-speed 100 MHz strain monitoring system devised using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technique with optical filter method. The optical filter method is a detection scheme of the strain of FBG, where the changing Bragg wavelength of the FBG reflection is converted to the intensity of reflected light to enable the 100 MHz measurement. In order to show the usefulness and reliability of the method, we report the measurements for solid oxygen, spin-controlled crystal, and volborthite, a deformed Kagom{e} quantum spin lattice, using static magnetic fields up to 7 T and non-destructive millisecond pulse magnets up to 50 T. Then, we show the application of the method for the magnetostriction measurements of CaV$_{4}$O$_{9}$, a two-dimensional antiferromagnet with spin-halves, and LaCoO$_{3}$, an anomalous spin-crossover oxide, in the megagauss fields.
