Tunable coaxial cavity resonator for linear and nonlinear microwave characterization of superconducting wires
2011
We discuss experimental results obtained using a tunable cylindrical coaxial cavity constituted by an outer Cu cylinder and an inner Pb-BSCCO wire. We have used this device for investigating the microwave response of the superconducting wire, both in the linear and nonlinear regimes. In particular, by tuning the different modes of the cavity to make them resonant at exactly harmonic frequencies, we have detected the power emitted by the superconducting inner wire at the second- and third-harmonic frequency of the driving field. The results obtained in the nonlinear regime, whether for the microwave surface impedance or the harmonic emission, are qualitatively accounted for considering inter…
All polarization-maintaining assively mode-locked yb-doped fiber laser : pulse compression using an anomalous polarization-maintaining photonic cryst…
2019
We report the generation of short pulses at 1 μm using an all-polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber configuration. The pulses are provided by an all normal-dispersion Fabry-Perot Yb-doped cavity and are compressed with an anomalous polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber (PM PCF). Opposed to standard configurations; here the filtering action is solely performed by the finite bandwidth of the gain medium. The laser generates 8 ps width sech 2 profile pulses at 1046.8 nm with a −10 dB bandwidth of 5.9 nm. After compression using the PM PCF, pulses with an FWHM of 3 ps were obtained, limited by the actual value of the available anomalous dispersion. We also report the changes in the outp…
A Novel Technique for Deembeding the Unloaded Resonance Frequency from Measurements of Microwave Cavities
2006
[EN] A novel technique to extract the influence of coupling networks on the resonant frequency of cavities in one-port measurements is presented. The determination of the unloaded resonant frequency is performed directly from measurements without either the need to obtain the electromagnetic fields in the resonator or to deembed the delay of transmission lines from the measuring equipment to the resonator. The importance of the Foster's form on the modeling of the frequency detuning of the resonators is also discussed and a criterion for the choice of the appropriate Foster's form is suggested. The procedure is validated with simulations and experimental measurements of manufactured cavities
Frequency dependence of the microwave surface resistance of MgB2 by coaxial cavity resonator
2014
Abstract We report on the microwave (mw) properties of a cylindrical MgB2 rod prepared by the reactive liquid Mg infiltration technology. The MgB2 rod, 94.3 mm long, is used as inner conductor of a coaxial cavity having a Cu tube as external conductor. By analyzing the resonance curves of the cavity in the different resonant modes and at different temperatures, we have determined the temperature dependence of the mw surface resistance, R s , of the MgB2 material, at fixed frequencies, and the frequency dependence of R s , at fixed temperatures. Our results show that the R s ( f ) curves follow a f n law, where n decreases on increasing the temperature, starting from n ≈ 2 , at T = 4.2 K , d…
Crystallinity of block copolymer controlled by cyclodextrin
2018
We report a differential scanning calorimetry study to investigate the effect of cyclodextrins (CD) on the crystallinity of a copolymer. Tetronics was selected as copolymer with star-like shape formed by four polyethylene oxide flanked by four polypropylene oxide blocks linked to ethylenediamine central group. The use of CD with different cavity size was exploited for a block selective inclusion. A model for supramolecular association was considered for a quantitative description of the enthalpy data. The polymer chain incorporation into the CD cavity generates a loss of crystallinity. The stoichiometry of the CD/copolymer aggregates can be tuned by changing the CD cavity size. The investig…
