EndoTac: An Endoscopic Camera‐Based Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity for Minimally Invasive Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

Low Threshold Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers Based on CsPbI3 Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The first vertical‐cavity surface‐emitting laser (VCSEL) based on CsPbI3 thin films is fabricated by planar hot pressing. By optimizing the cavity design through optical gain assessment and rigorous coupled‐wave analysis, the VCSEL achieved an exceptionally low lasing threshold of 2.8 µJ cm−2.

Mechanically‐Gated Stochastic Resonance for All‐Optical Acoustic Sensing in Noisy Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically‐gated stochastic resonance (MGSR) sensing system is demonstrated, wherein stochastic resonance is enabled by an all‐optical bistable fiber Bragg grating feedback loop and gated by mechanical resonance. Under ambient noise, the system generates bistable outputs satisfying the Kramers escape‐rate condition, yielding signal‐to‐noise ratio ...

Bi-Signature optical spectroscopy for online fault detection in electrical machines

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
A novel bi-signature optical spectroscopy for fault detection in electrical machines is presented. The combined use of long period grating (LPG) and two fibre Bragg gratings (FBG1 and FBG2) is implemented to discriminate between vibration and temperature

Fabrication and applications of fibre Bragg gratings [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The consequences of fabricating Bragg gratings in various fibres, with or without hydrogen loading, and with varying laser power levels are explored. Three new techniques for fabricating chirped gratings are presented. Beams with dissimilar wavefront curvatures are interfered to give chirped gratings. With the same aim techniques of writing gratings on
