In recent years there has been considerable interest in using photonic thermometers such as Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and silicon ring resonators as an alternative technology to resistance-based legacy thermometers. Although FBG…
We present measurements of the dynamical response of thermal noise to an ac excitation in conductors at low temperature. From the frequency dependence of this response function - the noise thermal impedance - in the range 1 kHz-1 GHz we…
A room-temperature mechanical oscillator undergoes thermal Brownian motion with an amplitude much larger than the amplitude associated with a single phonon of excitation. This motion can be read out and manipulated using laser light using a…
The quantum limit is a fundamental lower bound on the uncertainty when estimating a parameter in a system dominated by the minimum amount of noise (quantum noise). For the first time, we derive and demonstrate a quantum limit for…
We achieved for the first time a direct measurement of the thermal fluctuation of a pendulum in an off-resonant region using a laser interferometric gravitational wave detector. These measurements have been well identified for over one…
Phase-shifting interferometry is one of the optical measurement techniques that improves accuracy and resolution by incorporating a controlled phase shift into conventional optical interferometry. In this study, a four-step phase-shifting…
The round trip time of the light pulse limits the maximum detectable vibration frequency response range of phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry ({\phi}-OTDR). Unlike the uniform laser pulse interval in conventional {\phi}-OTDR,…
We present a 3 omega method for simultaneously measuring the specific heat and thermal conductivity of a rod- or filament-like specimen using a way similar to a four-probe resistance measurement. The specimen in this method needs to be…
Distributed temperature sensors (DTS) measure temperatures by means of optical fibers. Those optoelectronic devices provide a continuous profile of the temperature distribution along the cable. Initiated in the 1980s, DTS systems have…
We have studied the temperature dependence of diagonal conductivity in high-mobility two-dimensional samples at filling factors $\nu=1/2$ and 3/2 at low temperatures. We observe a logarithmic dependence on temperature, from our lowest…
In this paper, we report on a multicore fiber-based (MCF) temperature sensor that operates in a wide thermal range and that is robustly packaged to withstand harsh environments. To develop the sensor, the fundamentals concerning the effect…
This work presents for the first time a flexible over-moded resonator (OMR) based on P(VDF-TrFE) thin films. The devices were manufactured on commercially available elastic substrate with inkjet-printed electrodes. The sensing copolymer…
A standard quarter-wavelength multilayer optical coating will produce the highest reflectivity for a given number of coating layers, but in general it will not yield the lowest thermal noise for a prescribed reflectivity. Coatings with the…
Zone-folded acoustic phonons (6 THz) in 4H silicon carbide (SiC) have been coherently excited using a femtosecond near-infrared pulse and measured through transient reflectivity with a pump and probe protocol. Their amplitude is coherently…
We demonstrate dual-wavelength distributed acoustic sensing over 37 km of standard single-mode fiber using $\phi$-OFDR, utilizing a scalable hybrid-integrated dual-wavelength laser chip frequency-locked to a high-Q integrated SiN coil…
The optical conductivity, $\sigma(\omega)$, of the two dimensional one-band Hubbard model is calculated at finite temperature using exact diagonalization techniques on finite clusters. The in-plane d.c. resistivity, $\rho_{ab}$, is also…
Two difficulties associated with the computations of thermal vibrational correlation functions are discussed. The first one is the lack of a well-behaved expression that is valid at both high-temperature and $T \to 0$ K limits.…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has proven to be a powerful technique for studying tissue morphology in ophthalmology, cardiology, and endomicroscopy. Its performance is limited by the fundamental trade-off between the imaging…
The FTTH (Fiber To The Home) market currently needs new network maintenance technologies that can, economically and effectively, cope with massive fiber plants. However, operating these networks requires adequate means for an effective…
Temperature measurement with nano-Kelvin resolution is demonstrated at room temperature, based on the thermal dependence of an optical crystal anisotropy in a high quality whispering gallery resonator. As the resonator's TE and TM modes…
