Ion-Exchanged Glass Waveguides with Low Birefringence for a Broad Range of Waveguide Widths [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Optical communications networks require integrated photonic components with negligible polarization dependence, which typically means that the waveguides must feature very low birefringence.

Snapshot Multi-Wavelength Birefringence Imaging

open access: yesSensors
A snapshot multi-wavelength birefringence imaging measurement method was proposed in this study. The RGB-LEDs at wavelengths 463 nm, 533 nm, and 629 nm were illuminated with circularly polarized light after passing through a circular polarizer.

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.
