We define a measure for persistence in holographic recording. Using this measure and the known measures for dynamic range and sensitivity, we compare the performance of singly-doped and doubly-doped LiNbO3 crystals. We show that the range of performance th ...
A new type of moving-coil Watt balance with a compact design is under construction at the Swiss Federal Office of Metrology (OFMET). Recently, several key components of the system have been characterized. In this paper, a detailed description of the mechan ...
The influence of temperature, pH, alkalinity, and type and concentration of the dissolved organic matter (DOM) on the rate of ozone (O-3) decomposition, O-3-exposure, . OH-exposure and the ratio R-ct of the concentrations of . OH and O-3 has been studied. ...
We propose a novel approach to intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement allowing minimal invasive continuous monitoring over prolonged periods, regardless of patient position and activities [1]. The key element of this innovative measurement method is a soft ...
This paper addresses the problem of robust exponential filtering for discrete uncertain systems with mixed stochastic and deterministic uncertainties, in addition to unmodelled nonlinearities and measurement and process noises with bounded variances. ...
We present a fully integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer in silicon-on- insulator technology. Modulation of the index of refraction is achieved through the plasma dispersion effect resulting in a bandwidth in the 10 MHz range. A particular and innovative ...
To evaluate whether an activity monitor based on body acceleration measurement can accurately assess the energy cost of the human locomotion, 12 subjects walked a combination of three different speeds (preferred speed+/-1 km/h) and seven slopes (-15 to + 1 ...
We report on the direct absorption measurement of the polarization selection rules in a V-groove QWR waveguide. Attenuation measurements in a 1 mm long waveguide were performed from 10 K up to room temperature. These measurements yielded the QWR DOS select ...
A method is proposed to measure the radiation damping rate const. based on the anal. of the nonexponential recovery of the magnetization after inversion. It is applicable when the recovery is dominated by radiation damping rather than by relaxation process ...
The paper presents a new method for the automatic monitoring of bridges deformations. Based on the use of electronic high precision inclinometers, this method permits to accurately reconstruct the deflected shape of the bridge and to follow its long-term e ...
