This set-up is particularly simple and makes possible the use of a flexible cable that may be plugged to the instrument using connectors for easy field applications. Measurements of AC and DC currents are demonstrated. ...
The article analyzes the influence of the IP access interface on the packet loss probability and delay times in the optical packet switched network. The network and node model have been proposed, and the assembler and hold features have been included in th ...

We demonstrate experimentally that it is possible to control optically the group velocity of an optical pulse as it travels along an optical fiber. To achieve this control we use the effect of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering. In our experiments we have ach ...
Coherent optical beams are used to communicate, store, and process information in a growing number of applications. The availability of coherent laser sources is of critical importance for the realization of such optical information systems. An incoherent ...
After microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices have been well established, components of higher complexity are now developed. Particularly, the combination with optical components has been very successful and have led to optical MEMS. The technology o ...
We investigated the effect of the phase noise of fiber amplifiers on the linewidth of the amplified signal. We used three different sources as input signal, with linewidth between 5 kHZ and 18 GHz. We did not observe any spectral broadening of the signal l ...
An all-fiber phase modulator based on lead titanate zirconate coating deposited by dc reactive magnetron sputtering was fabricated and optically characterized. The frequency response showed a flat broadband structure up to 600 kHz, with an efficiency of 0. ...
The characterization of the fracture process zone inside a cracked concrete specimen is investigated through optical fiber technology. Fiber Bragg gratings are used to measure the strains in the close vicinity of the crack front, thus enabling us (for the ...
We report on the application of double-clad doped fiber amplifiers for coherent space communication systems using a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) design at 1.06 μm. The master oscillator is either a single-frequency Nd:YAG solid-state laser or a ...
