Ion-exchange in molten nitrate salts containing metal ions (i.e. silver, copper, etc.) represents a well-established technique able to modify the chemical-physical properties of glass materials. It is widely used not only in the field of integrated optics (IO) but also, more recently, in plasmonics due to the possibility to induce the formation of ...

Multi-Sensor Orientation Tracking for a Façade-Cleaning Robot
Glass-façade-cleaning robots are an emerging class of service robots. This kind of cleaning robot is designed to operate on vertical surfaces, for which tracking the position and orientation becomes more challenging.

Labeling of Unique Sequences in Double-Stranded DNA at Sites of Vicinal Nicks Generated by Nicking Endonucleases [PDF]
We describe a new approach for labeling of unique sequences within dsDNA under nondenaturing conditions. The method is based on the site-specific formation of vicinal nicks, which are created by nicking endonucleases (NEases) at specified DNA sites on ...

The ANTARES Optical Beacon System [PDF]
ANTARES is a neutrino telescope being deployed in the Mediterranean Sea. It consists of a three dimensional array of photomultiplier tubes that can detect the Cherenkov light induced by charged particles produced in the interactions of neutrinos with the

Molecular beacons attached to glass beads fluoresce upon hybridisation to target DNA
Molecular beacons attached to glass beads have been synthesised which are non-fluorescent until exposed to a complementary target nucleic acid, whereupon they fluoresce, indicating hybridisation.

Measurements of group velocity of light in the lake Baikal water [PDF]
The results of direct measurements of group velocity of light in the lake Baikal water at the depth of 1100 m are presented. The lake Baikal water dispersion has been measured at three wavelengths: 370 nm, 470 nm and 525 nm.

What Am I Looking At? Low-Power Radio-Optical Beacons for In-View Recognition on Smart-Glass
Applications on wearable personal imaging devices, or Smart-glasses as they are called, can largely benefit from accurate and energy-efficient recognition of objects that are within the user's view. Existing solutions such as optical or computer vision approaches are too energy intensive, while low-power active radio tags suffer from imprecise ...

High precision hybrid RF and ultrasonic chirp-based ranging for low-power IoT nodes [PDF]
Hybrid acoustic-RF systems offer excellent ranging accuracy, yet they typically come at a power consumption that is too high to meet the energy constraints of mobile IoT nodes.

Imaging through turbid layers by scanning the phase conjugated second harmonic radiation from a nanoparticle [PDF]
We demonstrate imaging through a turbid layer by using digital phase conjugation of the second harmonic field radiated from a beacon nanoparticle. We show that the phase-conjugated focus can be displaced from its initial position by illuminating the same
