We demonstrate simultaneous strain and temperature sensing based on hybrid Raman and Brillouin scattering with enhanced performance thanks to the combined use of standard Fabry–Perot lasers in conjunction with optical pulse coding techniques. The combinati ...
We present an RF-driven two-stage 40 GHz RZ pulse source based on self-phase modulation and a fiber optic parametric amplifier, for generation of 1.1 ps pulses, and demonstrate generation of OTDM data up to 320 Gb/s. ...
Several applications are pushing the development of high performance mode-locked lasers: generation of short pulses for extremely high bit rate transmission at 100 Gb/s and beyond, all-optical clock recovery at 40 Gb/s and beyond, generation of millimeter ...
The invention relates to a method for identifying a datum Sk that includes: a) constructing (84) a chronological series {T1;...; Ti;...; TN} of the arrival times Ti of consecutive pulses or pulse blocks; b) calculating (96) a resemblance value among said s ...
We design a novel class of space-time codes, called linear diversity-embedding space-time block codes (LDE-STBC) where a high-rate STBC is linearly superimposed on a high-diversity STBC without requiring channel knowledge at the transmitter. In applying th ...
Deciding consistency of constraint networks is a fundamental problem in qualitative spatial and temporal reasoning. In this paper we introduce a divide-and-conquer method that recursively partitions a given problem into smaller sub-problems in deciding con ...
Nanowire crossbar circuits are an emerging architectural paradigm that promises a higher integration density and an improved fault-tolerance due to its reconfigurability. In this paper, we propose for the first time the utilization of the multi-spacer patt ...
Silicon nanowires are a promising solution to address the increasing challenges of fabrication and design at the future nodes of the Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) Technology roadmap. Despite the attractive opportunity that offers their org ...

We propose the use of pulse Simplex-coding in distributed temperature sensors based on spontaneous Brillouin scattering. The analysis shows achieved performance improvement and the effect on stimulated Brillouin threshold, resulting in lower required input ...
An explicit charge-based compact model for lightly doped FinFETs is proposed. This design-oriented model is valid and continuous in all operating regimes (subthreshold, linear, and saturation) for channel lengths (L) down to 25 nm, Fin widths (W-Si) down t ...
