Analyzing the internal loss characteristics and multimodedness of (integrated) optical devices can prove difficult. One technique to recover this information is to Fourier transform the transmission spectrum of optical components. This…
We performed high-resolution Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy of a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sphere of unknown size in the Mie scattering region. Apart from a slow, oscillatory structure (wiggles), which is due to an…
We have made measurements of microwave transmission over the 12 - 18 GHz range and through a simple metamaterial exhibiting a negative index of refraction. The metamaterial consisted of an array of wires cladded in dielectric embedded in a…
The analytic expressions for the maximum and minimum reflectance of optical films coated with gapped graphene are derived in the application region of the Dirac model with account of multiple reflections. The respective film thicknesses are…
Using the Cryogenic, High-Accuracy Refraction Measuring System (CHARMS) at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, we have measured the absolute refractive index of five specimens taken from a very large boule of Corning 7980 fused silica from…
In spite of their ubiquitous applications, the characterization of glass fibers by means of all-optical techniques is still facing some limitations. Recently, X-ray absorption has been proposed as a method for visualizing the inner…
Distributed fiber sensing based on correlation-aided phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry is presented. The focus is on correlation as an enabler for high spatial resolution. Results from different applications are presented.
In this paper, we have presented an analytical solution to extract the effective properties of acoustic metamaterials from the measured complex transmission and reflection coefficients when the metamaterial and impedance tube have different…
Capillary rise occurs when a thin tube contacts a liquid, which rises against gravity due to the capillary force. This phenomenon is present in a wide range of everyday and industrial settings and provides the means to measure the physical…
We design a spectrally resolved interferometer to measure the refractive index of transparent samples over a broad spectral range between 400 and 550 nm. The measuring device consists of a Michelson interferometer whose output is analysed…
The paper considers an opportunity for the creation of an artificial two-component metamaterial with a negative refractive index within the radio and optical frequency band, which possesses a spatial dispersion. It is shown that there…
Precise measurement of the refractive index of stable silicon isotopes $^{28}$Si, $^{29}$Si, $^{30}$Si single crystals with enrichments above 99.9 at.% and a silicon single crystal $^{nat}$Si of natural isotopic composition is performed…
We present a novel method, based on the Saunderson corrections, to predict the reflectance between a liquid interface and a dielectric diffuser. In this method, the diffuse properties of the dielectric are characterized using a single…
Light-absorbing materials are widely used, and their optical properties are an important factor. Snell's law does not hold in materials that partially absorb light. Hence, the optical path in refraction is calculated from Maxwell's law. We…
Optical waveguides, covered with thin films, which transmittance can be controlled by external action, are widely used in various applications from optical modulators to saturable absorbers. It is natural to suggest that the waveguide…
High index optical waveguide devices such as slab waveguides, strip waveguides and fibers play extremely important roles in a wide range of modern applications including telecommunications, sensing, lasing, interferometry, and resonant…
A thorough analysis of the refractive index of eleven 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids with three different anions, tetrafluoroborate bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, and trifluoromethanesulfonate, is reported. Refractive…
This paper presents a simple and effective wideband method for the determination of material properties, such as the complex index of refraction and the complex permittivity and permeability. The method is explicit (non-iterative) and…
One of the striking properties of artificially structured materials is the negative refraction, an optical feature that known natural materials do not exhibit. Here, we propose a simple design, composed of two parallel layers of materials…
A coherent, short-length reference arm reflectometer, which utilizes a 76-MHz repetition rate mode-locked fiber laser, was investigated experimentally for long fiber links (> 10 km). The reflectometer combines the advantages of optical…
