Multimode optical fibers are the backbone of telecommunication and medical imaging. When light with high intensity travels through a multimode fiber, photons and matter start to interact and propa-gation becomes nonlinear. The nonlinear propagation of ligh ...
We report phase and amplitude measurements of large coherent structures originating from the noise-induced modulation instability in optical fibers. By using a specifically designed time-lens system (SEAHORSE) in which aberrations are compensated, the comp ...
In this study, silica glass, optical fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are used for torque-induced strain monitoring in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) hollow shafts toward the development of a methodology for structural load monitoring. Optical fibers wi ...
The invention discloses systems and methods for generation of microfluidic jets providing a tool for very precise and localized delivery of e.g., medicaments. The proposed solution overcomes shortcomings related to miniaturization of a jet injection techno ...
The widespread use of antibiotics and antifungal drugs has provoked an increasing number
of multi-resistant bacteria and fungi. The emergence of multiresistance to antibiotics has
been now recognized as a very serious public health issue. In order to targe ...
Optical waveguides are one of the most important photonic components. They are indispensable tools in many of todayâ s technologies because of their capacity of guiding light. In particular, compact, low loss, flexible polymer optical waveguides are cruci ...
Flexible electronics and particularly soft fibers and textiles are becoming key components in rapidly developing fields such as robotics, health and personal care, sensing, or implantable and wearable devices. Thus far however, the ability to impart soft a ...
With the increasing capabilities of the microelectronics technology, future particle detectors in high energy physics will be able to yield high-level features that are not only simple geometrical positions or energy measurement in the silicon sensors used ...
Oxygen (O2) molecule is of paramount importance in nature, and it takes part in several biological and chemical activities such as energy generation, cellular respiration, and food deterioration, to name a few. Detection of O2 concentration is of extreme i ...
Quantum computing is one of the great scientific challenges of the 21st century. Small-scale
systems today promise to surpass classical computers in the coming years and to enable the
solution of classically intractable computational tasks in the fields of ...
