Optical Soliton Molecules in Fiber Lasers

2006

Recent experiments demonstrate that fiber laser cavities are able to support various multisoliton complexes, analogous to soliton molecules, which could have impact on optical information transmission or storage. These advances are guided by the concept of dissipative soliton.

High-Resolution Spectroscopy and Preliminary Global Analysis of C–H Stretching Vibrations of C2H4 in the 3000 and 6000 cm-1 Regions

2010

International audience; Ethylene (ethene, H2C=CH2) is a naturally occurring compound in ambient air that affects atmospheric chemistry and global climate. The C2H4 spectrum is available in databases only for the 1000 and 3000 cm−1 ranges. In this work, the ethylene absorption spectrum was measured in the 6030- 6250 cm−1 range with the use of a high resolution Bruker IFS 125HR Fourierspectrometer and a two-channel opto-acoustic spectrometer with a diode laser. As a secondary standard of wavelengths, the methane absorption spectrum was used in both cases. A preliminary analysis was realized thanks to the tensorial formalism developed by the Dijon group that is implemented in the XTDS software…

Enhanced light scattering in Si nanostructures produced by pulsed laser irradiation

2013

An innovative method for Si nanostructures (NS) fabrication is proposed, through nanosecond laser irradiation (lambda = 532 nm) of thin Si film (120 nm) on quartz. Varying the laser energy fluences (425-1130 mJ/cm(2)) distinct morphologies of Si NS appear, going from interconnected structures to isolated clusters. Film breaking occurs through a laser-induced dewetting process. Raman scattering is enhanced in all the obtained Si NS, with the largest enhancement in interconnected Si structures, pointing out an increased trapping of light due to multiple scattering. The reported method is fast, scalable and cheap, and can be applied for light management in photovoltaics. (C) 2013 AIP Publishin…

Aminoferrocene and Ferrocene Amino Acid as Electron Donors in Modular Porphyrin–Ferrocene and Porphyrin–Ferrocene–Porphyrin Conjugates

2014

New amide-linked porphyrin–ferrocene conjugates [M(PAr)–Fc] were prepared from aminoferrocene and a carboxy-substituted meso-tetraaryl-porphyrin [M = 2H, Zn; Ar = mesityl (Mes), C6F5: 3a, 3e, Zn-3a, Zn-3e]. A further porphyrin building block was attached to the second cyclopentadienyl ring of the ferrocene moiety to give the metallopeptides M(PMes)–Fc–M(PAr) (M = 2H, Zn; Ar = C6H5, 4-C6H4F: 6b, 6c, Zn-6b, Zn-6c). The effects of the Ar substituents, the porphyrin central atom M and the presence of the second porphyrin at the ferrocene hinge on the excited-state dynamics was studied by optical absorption spectroscopy, electrochemistry, steady-state emission, time-resolved fluorescence measure…

Application of action camera video for fast and low-cost photogrammetric survey of cultural heritage

2022

Abstract. The research work focuses on the growing of fast and low-cost data surveying methods (both in the acquisition and processing phases), to be used mainly as a support for the management and enhancement of architectural heritage. Attention is paid on the diffusion of action cameras, characterized by wide-angle lenses and 4K video shooting, with more and more affordable prices and on the elaboration of the data with photogrammetry software. The high-resolution videos captured by these tools, in fact, allow the selection of frames characterized by sufficient overlap, necessary for point cloud generation through Structure for Motion (SfM) processes. The focus is on indoor environment ch…

Nanoring as logic gate and memory mass device

2015

We study the application of one nanoring driven by a laser field in different states of polarization in logic circuits. In particular we show that assigning boolean values to different state of the incident laser field and to the emitted signals, we can create logic gates such as OR, XOR and AND. we also show the possibility to make logic circuits such as half-adder and full-adder using one and two nanoring respectively. Using two nanorings we made tho Toffoli gate. Finally we use the final angular momentum acquired by the eelctron to store information and hence show the possibility to use and array of nanorings as a mass device.

Depassivation Experiments by Laser‐Pulse‐Induced Spallation

1992

Depassivation experiments have been conducted by applying a technique developed for adhesion tests. A laser-pulse-induced spallation of the passive film is induced in situ without any contact between the laser beam and the passive film. The depassivation is controlled by the short pressures induced at the metal-film interface. The interfacial stresses at the metal-film interface could be studied by this technique

Current modulation induced stability in laser diode under high optical feedback strength

2021

The back-reflection of emitted laser beam (optical feedback, also know as selfmixing) from various external interfaces are sufficient to cause instability, and prohibiting its use in various fields such as communication, spectroscopy, imaging to name a few. So it is desirable to study the laser dynamics and the conditions causing it to be stable in spite of strong optical feedback. With the aid of mathematical formulation, simulation and backed by experimental evidences, it is demonstrated that the frequency deviation of the laser emission due to current (intensity) modulation alters the dynamic state and boundary conditions of the system such that even under large optical feedback strength…

Transcranial Doppler and Cortical Microcirculation at Increased Intracranial Pressure and during the Cushing Response

1995

The effect of increased intracranial pressure on the flow velocity of the basilar artery was measured with transcranial ultrasonic Doppler in New Zealand White rabbits under alpha-chloralose anesthesia and artificial respiration. Laser Doppler flowmetry served to study changes of the cortical microcirculation. The results confirm a high inverse correlation of the diastolic flow velocity, the pulsatility index, and the resistance index with the cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP). During acute intracranial hypertension, however, these parameters do not show a good correlation with the local cortical blood flow. The absence of a correlation was evident over a wide CPP range down to values of 35…
