Introduction. One of the major barriers affecting the viability of encapsulated islets is pericapsular fibrotic infiltration (PFI). This study aimed to design strategies to reduce PFI around intraportally injected alginate microbeads. Methods. Empty, highly ...
We analyze the low temperature photoluminescence properties of two multi-layer stacking of GaN/AlN quantum dots. We report drastic differences of linewidths between continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments. After the pulsed excitatio ...
A blue resonant cavity light emitting diode with a 50% Al-content crack-free GaN/AlGaN distributed Bragg reflector is reported. The structure shows excellent optical properties and the benefits of the cavity structure are clearly seen in the narrowed spect ...
Angular-dependent emission spectra are investigated in a strongly coupled InGaAs-GaAs-AlAs-based semiconductor microcavity as a function of excitation intensity and of detuning between the uncoupled exciton and photon modes. Under conditions of nonresonant ...
This paper presents the theoretical basis and preliminary experimental results of a new HMM model, referred to as HMM2, which can be considered as a mixture of HMMs. In this new model, the emission probabilities of the temporal (primary) HMM are estimated ...
Attachment-induced ionization instability has been experimentally observed in O-2 and CF4 capacitive RF discharges using time-resolved voltage probe, Langmuir probe, optical emission and mass spectrometry measurements. This instability occurs under specifi ...
Experimental demonstration of optical speedup at transparency (OSAT) has been performed on a 1 mm long semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA). OSAT is a recently proposed scheme that decreases the recovery time of an SOA while maintaining the available gai ...
A theoretical model of wavelength modulation spectroscopy that uses a laser diode on a Lorentzian absorption line is presented. This theory describes the general case of a current-modulated semiconductor laser for which a combined intensity and frequency m ...
Infrared spectroscopy using semiconductor lasers is a promising technique for trace gas detection. It allows a continuous and real time monitoring of several species, with a high sensitivity and a good selectivity. Among all the possible methods two are pa ...
We present in this paper an analysis of the electromagnetic emission associated with power line communications (PLC) systems. Using coupling factors obtained experimentally for different typical indoor configurations, we calculate radiated fields associate ...
