Optical sensor for remote estimation of alcohol concentration in blood stream
2013
Abstract The purpose of this manuscript is to validate our recently developed novel optical approach for extraction of remote vibration sources as a successful technique to estimate the alcohol concentration in blood stream. This technique is based on the tracking of temporal changes of reflected secondary speckle patterns produced in human skin when being illuminated by a laser beam. Since the skin’s vibrations profile is changed due to the alcohol in the blood stream, the extraction of the vibration profile can be translated into the corresponding alcohol concentration values by means of defining several parameters acting as indicators for the presence of alcohol in the blood stream. We h…

In this paper we incorporate recently developed novel optical approach for extraction of remote vibration sources to estimate the alcohol concentration in blood stream.
The TRAPSENSOR facility: an open-ring 7 tesla Penning trap for laserbased precision experiments
2019
APenning-trap facility for high-precision mass spectrometry based on a novel detection method has been built. This method consists in measuring motional frequencies of singly-charged ions trapped in strong magnetic fields through the fluorescence photons from laser-cooled 40Ca+ ions, to overcome limitations faced in electronic single-ion detection techniques. The key element of this facility is an open-ring Penning trap coupled upstream to a preparation Penning trap similar to those used at Radioactive Ion Beam facilities. Here we present a full characterization of the trap and demonstrate motional frequency measurements of trapped ions stored by applying external radiofrequency fields in r…
All-Fiber Laser With Intracavity Acousto-Optic Dynamic Mode Converter for Efficient Generation of Radially Polarized Cylindrical Vector Beams
2017
We report an all-fiber laser that emits a radially polarized cylindrical vector beam (CVB) at 1 μm based on an intracavity acousto-optic mode converter. We efficiently generate the CVB, taking advantage of the acousto-optic coupling from the HE11 mode to the TM01 mode in a two-mode fiber. The laser can be switched from emitting a Gaussian-like beam to a radially polarized CVB. Radially polarized CVBs with modal and polarization purities >98% and a maximum power of 65 mW were generated.
Transpupillare Thermotherapie (TTT) zur Behandlung von Aderhautmetastasen
2001
Die transpupillare Thermotherapie (TTT) wird erfolgreich zur Behandlung kleiner Aderhautmelanome am hinteren Augenpol eingesetzt [9, 13, 14]. Wir berichten uber die erfolgreiche Behandlung von Aderhautmetastasen mittels TTT unter intravenoser Gabe von Indozyaningrun (ICG). Bei 3 Patienten mit systemisch metastasierenden Karzinomen (Osophagus-, Bronchial- und Mamma-Ca) wurden Aderhautfiliae in 4 Augen mit jeweils einer Sitzung TTT behandelt. Verwendet wurde ein Diodenlaser (810 nm) und Spotgrose 2–3 mm. Die Laserleistung (im Mittel 0,75W) wurde beginnend bei 0,3W in 50 mW Schritten fur jeweils 1 Minute erhoht, bis die Tumoroberflache eine grauweise Odembildung zeigte. Jeweils 1 Minute nach T…
Smartphone single-snapshot mapping of skin chromophores
2016
Suitability of smartphone for single-snapshot mapping of skin melanin, oxy-hemoglobin and deoxy-hemoglobin under 3-wavelengths illumination was demonstrated. Simultaneous 448-532-659 nm illumination was provided by a portable laser-based prototype.
