Kovacs-like memory effect mediated fiber Bragg grating: resembling a silica quipu

Nature Communications
In antiquity, civilizations employed stone carvings and knotted quipu cords for information preservation. Modern telecommunications rely on optical fibers - silica glass strands engineered for light transmission - yet their capacity as archival media ...

Distributed acoustic sensing with Michelson interferometer demodulation

Photonic Sensors, 2016
The distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) has been extensively studied and widely used. A distributed acoustic sensing system based on the unbalanced Michelson interferometer with phase generated carrier (PGC) demodulation was designed and tested.

Flexible Multi-Thread Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Algorithm in VPONs Based on LR WDM/TDM PON

IEEE Access, 2020
With the smooth upgrade of the access network, multiple tuning-time devices will coexist in the long-reach access network, and the subsequent problems of high round-trip time (RTT) and optical network unit (ONU) tuning delay need to be solved urgently ...

Depressed clad hollow optical fiber with fundamental LP01 mode cut-off

, 2006
We propose a depressed clad hollow optical fiber with fundamental (LP01) mode cut-off suitable for high power short-wavelength, especially three-level, fiber laser operation by introducing highly wavelength dependent losses at longer wavelengths. The cut-

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

PBF‐LB/M of Ti‐6Al‐4V: High‐Pressure Solution Treatment and Aging for Applications in a Sustainable Aerospace

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing (AM) allows great geometric freedom for lightweight components. As parts are progressively optimized exploiting potentials in AM leading in smaller material cross sections, high pressure solution treating and aging (STA) treatments show an enormous potential for strongly improving material properties.

Storage of fiber-guided light in a nanofiber-trapped ensemble of cold atoms

, 2015
Tapered optical fibers with a nanofiber waist are versatile tools for interfacing light and matter. In this context, laser-cooled atoms trapped in the evanescent field surrounding the optical nanofiber are of particular interest: They exhibit both long ...

Recent Advances in Fiber-Optic Sensors for the Detection of Inorganic Acidic Gases

Photonic Sensors
An acidic gas is an important basic chemical raw material used for synthesizing fertilizers, insecticides, explosives, dyes, and salts. Alternatively, inorganic acidic gases that leak into the air have harmful effects on the human health, infrastructure,
