Accurate tuning of mismatched twin-core fiber filters
1998
We have demonstrated a reproducible and accurate way of tuning the coupling wavelength of a mismatched twin-core filter. This method allows high quality all-fiber filters to be implemented with low loss at any desired wavelength over a range of few hundred nanometers from the same fiber. An ~500-nm tuning range is demonstrated, limited only by the measurement setup and not by the technique itself. Highly accurate control of the filtering wavelength in combination with control of filtering strength by adjustment of the length of the twin-core fibers allows complex filter profiles to be implemented by cascading of several different filters. These filters are also very stable to a change in te…
Fast Response Vibration Sensor Based on Bragg Gratings Written on Tapered Core Fibers
2006
Bragg gratings written in tapered core fibers are used to measure mechanical vibrations with a time response better than 10 μs. The system is compact, low-cost and can be wavelength multiplexed.
White light supercontinuum generation in a Y-shaped microstructured tapered fiber pumped at 1064 nm.
2010
We report the generation of supercontinuum in a Ge-doped Y-shape tapered fiber pumped at 1064 nm in the ns pump regime. The taper was designed to have long taper transitions and a taper waist with a core diameter of 0.9 mum. The large air-filling fraction and diameter of the air-hole microstructure reduces the confinement loss at long wavelengths so, enabling the extension of the spectrum to longer wavelengths. Along the taper transition the zero-dispersion wavelength decreases as the diameter of the taper becomes smaller. The spectral components generated along the taper transition pump the taper waist, enhancing the generation of short wavelengths. A flat spectrum spanning from 420 nm to …
Recognition Of Polychromatic Test By Multi-Channel Correlation Filtering
1989
A wavelength-multichannel correlation technique based on matched filtering is proposed to identify a colour object with a non uniform colour distribution. The filters are matched to the object which is illuminated with different wavelengths. This correlation gives the information of colour distribution in addition to other information usually obtained from image recognition. The theoretical study of this technique, numerical simulations and discussion are presented.
MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei with VLBA Experiments. VI. Kinematics Analysis of a Complete Sample of Blazar Jets
2009
We discuss the jet kinematics of a complete flux-density-limited sample of 135 radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) resulting from a 13 year program to investigate the structure and evolution of parsec-scale jet phenomena. Our analysis is based on new 2 cm Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) images obtained between 2002 and 2007, but includes our previously published observations made at the same wavelength, and is supplemented by VLBA archive data. In all, we have used 2424 images spanning the years 1994-2007 to study and determine the motions of 526 separate jet features in 127 jets. The data quality and temporal coverage (a median of 15 epochs per source) of this complete AGN jet sample r…

Conditions for waveguide decoupling in square-lattice photonic crystals
2004
We study coupling and decoupling of parallel waveguides in two-dimensional square-lattice photonic crystals. We show that the waveguide coupling is prohibited at some wavelengths when there is an odd number of rows between the waveguides. In contrast, decoupling does not take place when there is even number of rows between the waveguides. Decoupling can be used to avoid cross talk between adjacent waveguides.
Aluminum Plasmonics: Fabrication and Characterization of Broadly Tunable Plasmonic Surfaces for Plasmon Molecule Strong-Coupling and Fluorescence Enh…
2018
Our work based on previous studies [1, 2] confirms, that simple aluminum nanostructures can be utilized as effective plasmonic resonators over a broad range of frequencies and wavelengths. The nanostructured surfaces, fabricated by electron-beam lithography demonstrated relatively narrow-band resonances and are suitable for various plasmonic applications ranging from metal enhanced fluorescence to strong-coupling [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] experiments. We represent data for molecule-plasmon coupling near the strong coupling limit and demonstrate that these aluminum structures do act as fluorescence increasing substrates. In this work, we used two different types of dyes. We studied the narrow band j-a…
PHOTOINDUCED HARDENING AND REDUCTION OF DISLOCATION MOBILITY IN C60SINGLE CRYSTALS: THE WAVELENGTH DEPENDENCE
2002
An increase of the microhardness and decrease of the dislocation mobility in C60 single crystals after light-irradiation in the wavelength range of 150–900nm in air has been observed giving evidence for photo-induced change in bonding. Efficiency of C60 phototransformation was found to increase with decreasing the wavelength.
