UV Exposed Optical Fibers with Frequency Domain Reflectometry for Device Tracking in Intra-Arterial Procedures

open access: yes, 2017
Shape tracking of medical devices using strain sensing properties in optical fibers has seen increased attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel guidance system for intra-arterial procedures using a distributed strain sensing device ...

Cracking assessment in concrete structures by distributed optical fiber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, a method to obtain crack initiation, location and width in concrete structures subjected to bending and instrumented with an optical backscattered reflectometer (OBR) system is proposed.

Distributed opto-mechanical analysis of liquids outside standard fibers coated with polyimide

open access: yes, 2019
The analysis of surrounding media has been a long-standing challenge of optical fiber sensors. Measurements are difficult due to the confinement of light to the inner core of standard fibers.

The relevance of point defects in studying silica-based materials from bulk to nanosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The macroscopic properties of silica can be modified by the presence of local microscopic modifications at the scale of the basic molecular units (point defects).

Joint Optimization of Test Node Selection and Fiber Thread Connection for Optical Communication Network

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
This paper proposes a method to solve the joint optimization of test node selection and fiber thread connection. The problem is modeled as an integer linear programming problem with two classes of decision variables. The first class of decision variables

Field‐Free, Deterministic Giant Spin‐Orbit Torque Switching of 1.3 T Perpendicular Magnetization With Symmetry‐Lifted Topological Surface States

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We show a giant, bias‐field free, deterministic, spin‐orbit‐torque switching of perpendicular hard magnets with HC over 1.3 T. By combining the three‐fold 3m symmetry from topological insulator surface states with the rectangular mm2 symmetry from the 2 x 1 intercalation in Cr3Te4, the interface symmetry is significantly reduced into a unidirectional m

Thickness Dependence of Linear and Nonlinear Optical Properties of Multilayer 3R‐MoS2

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Thickness as a key design parameter for optimizing the nonlinear optical response of layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) materials is established. The demonstrated correlation between thickness, linear spectra, and harmonic generation efficiency provides a powerful framework for tailoring nonlinear performance.

Enhancing the Efficiency of Organic Photovoltaics by a Photoactive Molecular Mediator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High boiling-point solvent additives, such as 1,8-diiodooctane, have been widely used to tune nanoscale phase morphology for increased efficiency in bulk heterojunction organic solar cells.

Polarisation optical time domain reflectometry

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 1980
A proposed new optical fibre technique will allow measurement of the spatial distribution of physical fields, and will also allow location of anomalous features in single polarisation state monomode optical fibres such as are under discussion for very high bandwidth communication.
