2016
We demonstrated solid-state broadband coherent Terahertz characterization based on the Terahertz Field Induced Second Harmonic effect in Silica. The THz detector consists of an asymmetric micro-slit array which can be operated at 200V applied bias.

Effect of Heat Exchange Transient Conditions with Moving Water-Air Interface on Space Charge Accumulation in Undersea HVdc Cables
2021
The accumulation of space charge inside the dielectric layer of an HVdc cable is one of the most important issue to be considered in the design stage and during the operating conditions. The separation of space charge is due to several factors including the dependence on temperature of the electrical conductivity of the insulation and the establishment of a thermal gradient under load conditions. This article is focused on the investigation of the effect of an axial heat transmission on the space charge and electric field distributions in an HVdc cable. In order to assess the impact of this phenomenon, a case study involving a cable immersed partly in water and partly in air has been simula…
Influence of the age of amorphous nonannealed As2S3 thin films on holographic properties
1998
The dependences of the maximal first order diffraction efficiency and the corresponding specific recording energy on the holographic grating period were studied. Grating period was varied from 0.40 to 70.0 μm. Both fresh and aged films were used. A large holographic recording efficiency decrease in the course of aging is found to take place. These changes are due to the effective film grain size increase caused by the relaxational structural changes and atmospheric oxygen exposure. Results are explained with the aid of stress fields induced by the evaporation and holographic recording. The obtained results can be used to optimize the hologram recording in amorphous chalcogenide films.
Two-color holographic-grating formation in amorphous As_2S_3 films
1998
A detailed experimental study of the holographic gratings recorded in nonannealed amorphous As2S3 films by 514.5-nm light in the presence of 632.8-nm readout light is carried out. A strong influence of a continuous 632.8-nm readout is found. The dependences of the maximal first-order diffraction efficiency and the corresponding specific recording energy on the holographic grating period were studied in a wide range of periods from 0.40 to 70.0 μm for 2-yr-old films. The obtained results are discussed in terms of photoinduced structural changes, relaxational structural changes, photoinduced anisotropy, and photoinduced recharging of the localized states in the bandgap. The photoinduced sulph…
<title>Effects of light polarization and crystal orientation on the holographic recording efficiency in doped LiNbO<formula><inf>&l…
2008
The holographic recording efficiency in doped LiNbO3 crystals has been studied both experimentally and theoretically depending on the type of dope, on the recording geometry and on the polarizations of the recording and readout light.. The studied crystals can be arranged in the following order by their efficiency: LiNbO3:Cu, LiNbO3:Fe (yet having a smaller thickness and donor concentration than LiNbO3:Cu), LiNbO3:Fe+Cu, LiNbO3:Fe+Ti, LiNbO3:Ti. It was found that the recording geometry with the holographic grating vector along the optical axis is much more efficient than in the perpendicular configuration.This fact is in accordance with the photorefraction theory based on photogalvanic and …
Photoalignment and Surface-Relief-Grating Formation are Efficiently Combined in Low-Molecular-Weight Halogen-Bonded Complexes
2012
It is demonstrated that halogen bonding can be used to construct low-molecular-weight supramolecular complexes with unique light-responsive properties. In particular, halogen bonding drives the formation of a photoresponsive liquid-crystalline complex between a non-mesogenic halogen bond-donor molecule incorporating an azo group, and a non-mesogenic alkoxystilbazole moiety, acting as a halogen bond-acceptor. Upon irradiation with polarized light, the complex exhibits a high degree of photoinduced anisotropy (order parameter of molecular alignment > 0.5). Moreover, efficient photoinduced surface-relief-grating (SRG) formation occurs upon irradiation with a light interference pattern, with…
Single-Element Reflective Digital Holographic Microscopy
2021
Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) is a well-known microscopy technique using an interferometric architecture for quantitative phase imaging (QPI) and it has been already implemented utilizing a large number of interferometers. Among them, single-element interferometers are of particular interest due to its simplicity, stability, and low cost. Here, we present an extremely simple common-path interferometric layout based on the use of a single one-dimensional diffraction grating for both illuminating the sample in reflection and generating the digital holograms. The technique, named single-element reflective digital holographic microscopy (SER-DHM), enables QPI and topography analysis of r…

2014
The composite lms based on PMMA, CuCl2 and photoinitiator were prepared.Transmission spectra of the lms with and without photoinitiator were measured. The holo-graphic gratings were recorded, the sensitivity of the lms and surface structure of gratingswere studied. Microanalysis of the lms was performed in di erent part of structure elementsof grating.
Dispersion induced effects of high-order optical sidebands in the performance of millimeter-wave fiber-optic links
2006
In this paper, chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) are proposed as signal-phase controllers for microwave-photonic wireless downstream fiber links. The effect of high-order modulation optical sidebands that disturbs the output mm-wave signal due to the chromatic dispersion induced by the gratings is studied theoretically and experimentally. The 1st and 2nd mm-wave harmonics of the output signal have been measured for conventional intensity modulation and for intensity modulation with optical carrier suppression. In the last case, data transmission at 2.5 Gb/s is demonstrated through a chirped grating of 280 ps/nm dispersion in a 40-GHz modulated link.
