Analysis of composition homogeneity and polarization orientation of PZT submicron fibers by micro-Raman spectroscopy

Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Jin Wang

Micro-Raman spectroscopy is a convenient tool to probe individual objects with a feature size on the submicron scale. The phase, composition, and orientation of Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 fibers fabricated via hydrothermal processing have been characterized by this tech ...

Power evolution along phase-sensitive parametric amplifiers: an experimental survey

Luc Thévenaz, Camille Sophie Brès, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Fatemeh Alishahi, Andrey Denisov, Thi Minh Phuong Hoang

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a method based on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis to measure the longitudinal signal power distribution along phase-sensitive fiber-optical parametric amplifiers (PS-FOPAs). Experimental results show that th ...

A tapered CRLH mushroom-like leaky wave antenna with reduced sidelobe level

Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Juan Sebastian Gomez Diaz

A tapered composite right/left-handed (CRLH) leaky-wave antenna (LWA) with reduced sidelobe level (SLL) is presented. A cosine taper design is achieved by simultaneously modifying the longitudinal period and the slot width of the mushroom CRLH structure. T ...

Ferroelectric translational antiphase boundaries in nonpolar materials

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Alexander Kvasov, Xiankui Wei

Ferroelectric materials are heavily used in electro-mechanics and electronics. Inside the ferroelectric, domain walls separate regions in which the spontaneous polarization is differently oriented. Properties of ferroelectric domain walls can differ from t ...

Blind Calibration for Phase Shifts in Compressive Systems

Rémi Gribonval, Gilles Puy

We consider a blind calibration problem in a compressed sensing measurement system in which each sensor introduces an unknown phase shift to be determined. We show that this problem can be approached similarly to the problem of phase retrieval from quadrat ...

Phase anomalies in Talbot light carpets of selfimages

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

An interesting feature of light fields is a phase anomaly, which occurs on the optical axis when light is converging as in a focal spot. Since in Talbot images the light is periodically confined in both transverse and axial directions, it remains an open q ...

A strategy for adjusting combination weights over adaptive networks

Ali H. Sayed

This work proposes a strategy to adjust the combination weights of an adaptive network in order to attain both faster convergence during the transient phase and lower mean-square-error during the steady-state phase. Optimal combination weights are designed ...

Electron and ion kinetic effects on non-linearly driven electron plasma and ion acoustic waves

Stephan Brunner

Fully non-linear kinetic simulations of electron plasma and ion acoustic waves (IAWs) have been carried out with a new multi-species, parallelized Vlasov code. The numerical implementation of the Vlasov model and the methods used to compute the wave freque ...

Capillary effect on watertable fluctuations in unconfined aquifers

David Andrew Barry

Parlange and Brutsaert [1987] derived a modified Boussinesq equation to account for the capillary effect on watertable dynamics in unconfined aquifers. Barry et al. [1996] solved this equation subject to a periodic boundary condition. Their solution shows ...

Phase properties of operator valued measures in phase space

Vivishek Sudhir

The Wigner phase operator (WPO) is identified as an operator valued measure (OVM) and its eigenstates are obtained. An operator satisfying the canonical commutation relation with the Wigner phase operator is also constructed and this establishes a Wigner d ...
