Photoacoustic imaging reveals hidden underdrawings in paintings

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
A novel, non-invasive, imaging methodology, based on the photoacoustic effect, is introduced in the context of artwork diagnostics with emphasis on the uncovering of hidden features such as underdrawings or original sketch lines in paintings ...

A Pavement Piezoelectric Energy Harvester for Small Input Displacements

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
In order to collect mechanical energy from human motions on pavement without an obvious disturbance, a piezoelectric harvester for small displacement is proposed. A seesaw mechanism is utilized to transmit the pressure displacement to piezoelectric beams.

Miniaturized Wideband CP Antenna Using Hybrid Embedded Metasurface Structure

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
In this study, a hybrid embedded metasurface (MTS) structure is proposed and applied to realize a miniaturized MTS antenna. In contrast to the conventional periodic rectangular MTS, the proposed MTS structure is formed by hybrid embedded patches composed

Coarse and Fine Two-Stage Calibration Method for Enhancing the Accuracy of Inverse Finite Element Method

open access: yesSensors, 2023
The inverse finite element method (iFEM) is a novel method for reconstructing the full-field displacement of structures by discrete measurement strain. In practical engineering applications, the accuracy of iFEM is reduced due to the positional offset of

Antireflection coated semiconductor laser amplifier for Bose-Einstein condensation experiments

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
We present a slave laser highly suitable for the preparation and detection of 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). A highly anti-reflection coated laser diode serves as an optical amplifier, which requires neither active temperature stabilization nor ...
