Abstract: Distributed fiber-optic vibration sensing based on phase extraction from optical reflectometry is discussed in this paper. The principles on the phase extraction from coherent ...

Abstract: The development of optical fiber technology has facilitated the technological innovation in optical fiber communication and sensing systems over the past decades. Among all the fiber sensing ...

Biological Physics is an exciting interdisciplinary frontier in physics. It applies tools and techniques of physics to understand how biological systems work from the scales of single molecules to an ...

Due to their high porosity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are regarded as promising materials for innovative applications, ...

Topological defects are universal patterns of nature. Nematic liquid crystals are ideal test beds for studying defects, particularly one-dimensional, linear disclinations. Predicting the structure of ...

Water treatment is required for a sustainable potable water supply and can be leveraged to harvest valuable elements. Crucial to these processes is the removal of charge pH-dependent species from ...

Remarkably, in situ neutron reflectometry shows that the hydrogen content in both cases proves to be linear with the optical signal (Figure 6 b). In a wider perspective, the results on tantalum and ...

Switching time measured by time-domain reflectometry under a step actuation voltage is τsw = 24 ± 4 μs, consistent with the mechanical resonance frequency of 28 kHz computed from beam theory for the ...
