Study of the Effects of Cavity Mode Spacing on Mode-Hopping in III–V/Si Hybrid Photonic Crystal Lasers

Crystals, 2021
We present a design methodology for hybrid lasers to realise mode-hop free operation by controlling the cavity mode spacing. In this study, a compact hybrid photonic crystal laser (H-PhCL) was employed which allowed a reduction of the Fabry–Perot length ...

A comparison of response rates in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing and the Health and Retirement Study [PDF]

, 2011
Survey response rates are an important measure of the quality of a survey; this is true for both longitudinal and cross-sectional surveys.  However, the concept of a response rate in the context of a panel survey is more complex than is the case for a ...

Residual strain measurement based on longitudinal to shear wave velocity ratio with a dual-mode EMAT

Frontiers in Materials, 2023
In this paper, a new and noncontact method with measuring longitudinal to shear wave velocity ratio by a dual-mode electromagnetic acoustic transducer is proposed for residual strain measurement in a metal structure without knowing its thickness. Firstly,

Modeling the Converse Magnetoelectric Effect in the Low-Frequency Range

Sensors, 2023
This article is devoted to the theory of the converse magnetoelectric (CME) effect for the longitudinal, bending, longitudinal-shear, and torsional resonance modes and its quasi-static regime.

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Multi-longitudinal-mode micro-laser model [PDF]

, 2017
We derive a convenient model for broad aperture micro-lasers, such as microchip lasers, broad area semiconductor lasers, or VCSELs, taking into account several longitudinal mode families.

Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

RESOLUTION INVESTIGATION FOR THE LONGITUDINAL-TRANSVERSE MODE MAGNETOELECTRIC LAMINATE COMPOSITES

, 2013
Signal resolution reflects the lowest detectable signal of a sensor; and it is more important in practical sensor applications. In this paper, we will investigate the signal resolution of the longitudinal-transverse (L-T) mode magnetoelectric (ME ...
