Reducing Polarization Mode Dispersion With Controlled Polarization Rotations [PDF]

, 2006
One of the fundamental limitations to high bit rate, long distance, telecommunication in optical fibers is Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). Here we introduce a conceptually new method to reduce PMD in optical fibers by carrying out controlled ...

Compact focusing grating couplers for silicon-on-insulator integrated circuits [PDF]

, 2007
—We report experimental results on compact and broadband focusing grating couplers, both in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) and gold on SOI. An eight-fold length reduction of the coupling structure from fiber to photonic wire in SOI, as com-pared to a linear ...

Diffusion Spectrum Imaging Maps Early Axonal Loss and a Unique Progressive Signal in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To delineate specific in vivo white matter pathology in neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) using diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) and define its clinical relevance. Methods DSI was performed on 42 NIID patients and 38 matched controls.

Using Jute Fiber to Improve Fresh and Hardened Properties of Concrete

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
The brittle nature of concrete sometimes makes it challenging for many critical applications. Research has indicated that including discrete short-length, closely spaced fibers in concrete could improve its ductility and act as a crack arrester.

Structure–Function Decoupling of the Sensorimotor and Default Mode Networks in Black Americans With MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) exhibits racially disparate rates of disease progression. Black people with MS (B‐PwMS) experience a more severe disease course than non‐Hispanic White people with MS (NHW‐PwMS). Here we investigated structural and functional connectivity as well as structure–function decoupling in the ...

Discontinuous Fiber-reinforced Composites above Critical Length [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2005
Micromechanical physics of critical fiber length, describing a minimum filament distance for resin impregnation and stress transfer, has not yet been applied in dental science. As a test of the hypothesis that 9-micron-diameter, 3-mm-long quartz fibers would increase mechanical strength over particulate-filled composites, photocure-resin-pre ...

Cracking the Code: Genotype–Phenotype Correlation Models in Sarcoglycanopathies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sarcoglycanopathies are among the most severe limb‐girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD), though milder presentations have been described. These diseases are primarily caused by missense variants, but the limited predictability of their effect on protein maturation, complex formation, and transport has hindered reliable genotype ...

Study on the Solutions to Heterogeneous ONU Propagation Delays for Energy-Efficient and Low-Latency EPONs

IEEE Access, 2020
The scattered Optical Network Units (ONUs) in an optical access network have different propagation delays. In an Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) adopting the traditional Interleaved Polling with Adaptive Cycle Time (IPACT) scheme, such ONU ...
