Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are some of the most useful materials for building spacecraft and aerospace tools. They are especially valuable for systems that work at extremely cold (cryogenic) temperatures because they are…
Opaque scintillators are designed to have a short scattering length such that scintillation photons are probabilistically confined to a small region of space about their origin. The benefit of this feature is that information on the…
continuum-robots, prosthetic devices and wearable body-shape sensors. A miniaturised one-degree-of-freedom joint-angle sensor is devised, using a single light emitting/receiving optical fibre with a coupler connected to a Keyence (FS-N11MN,…
In situ thermal transport measurement of flowing fluid could be useful for the characterization and diagnosis of practical thermal systems such as fluid heat exchangers and thermal energy storage systems. Despite abundant reports on the…
Limited sensitivity and sensing range are arguably the greatest challenges in microwave sensor design. Recent attempts to improve these properties have relied on metamaterial- (MTM-) inspired open-loop resonators (OLRs) coupled to…
Optical parametric oscillation (OPO) is distinguished by its wavelength access, that is, the ability to flexibly generate coherent light at wavelengths that are dramatically different from the pump laser, and in principle bounded solely by…
A novel, highly flexible, conductive polymer-based fiber with high electric capacitance is reported. In its crossection the fiber features a periodic sequence of hundreds of conductive and isolating plastic layers positioned around metallic…
The performance of a scintillating fiber detector prototype for tracking under high rate conditions is investigated. A spatial resolution of about100 micron is aimed for the detector. Further demands are low occupancy and radiation hardness…
We report initial research to develop a compact and practical primary thermometer based on Doppler broadening thermometry (DBT). The DBT sensor uses an intrinsic property of thermalized atoms, namely, the Doppler width of a spectral line…
A small 4-channels time-delayed complex perceptron is used as a silicon photonics neural network (NN) device to compensate for chromatic dispersion in optical fiber links. The NN device is experimentally tested with non-return-to-zero…
We propose and demonstrate a compact and simple vector bending sensor capable of distinguishing any direction and amplitude with high accuracy. The sensor consists of a short segment of asymmetric multicore fiber (MCF) fusion spliced to a…
Resistance thermometry provides a time-tested method for taking temperature measurements. However, fundamental limits to resistance-based approaches has produced considerable interest in developing photonic temperature sensors to leverage…
We demonstrate the generation, 40 km fiber transmission, and homodyne detection of single-mode squeezed states of light at 1550 nm using real-time phase control of a locally generated local oscillator, often called a "real local oscillator"…
We report on a compact, highly sensitive all-fiber accelerometer suitable for low frequency and low amplitude vibration sensing. The sensing elements in the device are two short segments of strongly coupled asymmetric multicore fiber (MCF)…
Thermoelectric power sensors used as power transfer standards are promising devices for further enhancements of the microcalorimetric technique in the high frequency field. A coaxial microcalorimeter has been studied, based on…
Textile sensors transform our everyday clothing into a means to track movement and bio-signals in a completely unobtrusive way. One major hindrance to the adoption of "smart" clothing is the difficulty encountered with connections and space…
Recent developments in quantum light-matter coupled systems and quantum transducers have highlighted the need for cryogenic optical measurements. In this study, we present a mechanically-rigid fiber-optic coupler with a coupling efficiency…
Managing large-scale optical distribution networks is a daunting task. This paper introduces a novel solution using radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to transform the procedure we monitor and manage the complex optical…
Heating induced by the noise postulated in wave function collapse models leads to a lower bound to the temperature of solid objects. For the noise parameter values $\lambda ={\rm coupling~strength}\sim 10^{-8} {\rm s}^{-1}$ and $r_C ={\rm…
Time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) is a powerful technique for characterizing the thermal properties of layered materials. However, its effectiveness at modulation frequencies below 0.1 MHz is hindered by pulse accumulation effects,…
