Distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) is currently a mature technology that allows 'transforming' a conventional fiber optic into a continuous array of individual sensors, which are distributed ...
Fibre fuse phenomenon is an optical discharge that may occur when power density of lightwave in an optical fibre exceeds a certain level 1,2. Fibre fuse brings irreversible damage to the fibre core by ...
The integration of high-speed optical communication and distributed sensing could bring intelligent functionalities to ubiquitous optical fibre networks, such as urban structure imaging, ocean seismic ...
ADA4355 from Analog Devices is a current-input digital-output converter works with pulses down to 10ns for time-of-flight measurements using photo diodes. In a 12 x 6mm BGA package, the IC is actually ...
A team of researchers from ANSTO and University of Technology Sydney have set a record by conducting thin film experiments at 1,100 degrees Celsius, using the Spatz reflectometer equipped with a ...
Optical methods are among the most common approaches to biosensing for plants and animals. For example, remote sensing equipment from satellites routinely use reflectance quality to determine the ...
Semiconductor devices are becoming thinner and more complex, making thin deposited films even harder to measure and control. With 3nm node devices in production and 2nm nodes ramping toward ...
One of the biggest challenges for nanoscale fabrication is how to measure devices on such a minute scale. As the semiconductor industry demands ever smaller devices, the need for reliable, robust ...
