Distributed optical fiber temperature sensor using only anti-Stokes Raman scattering light in a loop configuration

In this paper we demonstrate distributed Raman temperature sensing (RDTS) in a loop scheme employing anti-Stokes light intensity only. Using a single-channel receiver and anti-Stokes traces measured in loop configuration, we implement RDTS with inherent co ...

Intrinsic Emittance Reduction of an Electron Beam from Metal Photocathodes

Christoph Peter Hauri

Electron beams in modern linear accelerators are now becoming limited in brightness by the intrinsic emittance of the photocathode electron source. Therefore it becomes important for large scale facilities such as free electron lasers to reduce this fundam ...

Calibration and characterization of the IceCube photomultiplier tube

Xiaoxia Bai

Over 5000 PMTs are being deployed at the South Pole to compose the IceCube neutrino observatory. Many are placed deep in the ice to detect Cherenkov light emitted by the products of high-energy neutrino interactions, and others are frozen into tanks on the ...

Electrical Properties and Photoconductivity of Stacked-Graphene Carbon Nanotubes

Klaus Kern, Marko Burghard, Eduardo Jian Hua Lee

Stacked-graphene carbon nanotubes (SG-CNTs) obtained via pyrolysis of columnar superstructures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are studied by electrical transport measurements and scanning photocurrent microscopy. The charge transport in individual SG- ...

On the Application of a Monolithic Array for Detecting Intensity-Correlated Photons Emitted by Different Source Types

Edoardo Charbon, Dmitri Boiko

It is not widely appreciated that many subtleties are involved in the accurate measurement of intensity-correlated photons; even for the original experiments of Hanbury Brown and Twiss (HBT). Using a monolithic 4x4 array of single-photon avalanche diodes ( ...
