Advances on Optical Fiber Sensors

Fibers, 2013
In this review paper some recent advances on optical fiber sensors are reported. In particular, fiber Bragg grating (FBG), long period gratings (LPGs), evanescent field and hollow core optical fiber sensors are mentioned. Examples of recent optical fiber

High failure rate after all‐inside revision meniscal repair: Female sex and absence of ACL reconstruction increase risk

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the failure rate and identify factors associated with failure following all‐inside revision meniscal repair in patients with persistent or recurrent symptoms after primary meniscal repair. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study including 108 consecutive patients who underwent arthroscopic all‑inside revision ...

In-Fiber Subpicosecond Pulse Shaping for Nonlinear Optical Telecommunication Data Processing at 640 Gbit/s

International Journal of Optics, 2012
We review recent work on all-fiber (long-period fiber grating) devices for optical pulse shaping, particularly flat-top pulse generation, down to the subpicosecond range and their application for nonlinear switching (demultiplexing) of optical time ...

Moderate Biochar–Compost Mixture Is More Effective in Improving Biomass, Nutrient Fluxes, and Photosynthetic Outputs for Sustainable Land Restoration and Soil Fertility

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion severely constrains crop productivity in degraded and saline environments. Strategies such as biochar–compost integration could be useful for sustainable agriculture and land restoration on a global scale. This study evaluated the effects of biochar (1% Bc), compost (1% Co), and their blends (0.5% Bc + 0.5% Co and 1% Bc

Stimulated Forward Brillouin Scattering in Subwavelength Grating Silicon Membranes

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work proposes a novel strategy to achieve large Brillouin scattering with independent control of the optical and mechanical modes using subwavelength silicon membranes. We experimentally demonstrate remarkably high Brillouin gain, resulting in an on/off Stokes gain of 3 dB and anti‐Stokes loss of 4 dB in a 6 mm‐long waveguide with 35 mW of on‐chip

High‐Efficiency Graphene‐Silicon Slot‐Waveguide Microring Modulator at 1.5 and 2 µm Wavelength Bands

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
E/O modulators typically face a trade‐off between bandwidth and modulation efficiency. An integrated E/O modulator is presented that simultaneously achieves wideband, large bandwidth, and high modulation efficiency operation by embedding a partially overlapped double‐layer graphene on a compact silicon slot‐waveguide microring resonator.

Grating‐Lens Empowered Metafiber for Large‐Angle Light Collection With 3D Nanoprinted Structures

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A grating‐lens‐based Metafiber enables efficient light coupling into single‐mode fibers at large incidence angles. By combining diffraction and focusing on the fiber facet using a 3D nanoprinted holographic structure, light is selectively coupled only at specific angles while suppressing unwanted signals. This approach achieves high coupling efficiency
