Prototype mitre bends of the ex-vessel waveguide system for the ITER upper launcher: Thermal hydraulic simulations and experiments with off-center mm-wave beams

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Matteo Vagnoni, Anastasia Xydou, Humberto Torreblanca Quiroz

On ITER, long pulse gyrotrons are required as a power source for electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive (CD). The microwaves are guided from the gyrotrons, which are placed far from the Tokamak, into the plasma by transmission lines (TLs) and a ...

A cryogenic electro-optic interconnect for superconducting devices

Tobias Kippenberg, Amir Youssefi, Anton Lukashchuk, Nathan Rafaël Bernier, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni

A major challenge to the scalability of cryogenic computing platforms is the heat load associated with the growing number of electrical cable connections between the superconducting circuitry and the room-temperature environment. Compared with electrical c ...

An Extension of the Guided Wave M‐Component Model Taking Into Account the Presence of a Tall Strike Object

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Qi Li, Mi Zhou

We present in this paper an extension of the guided-wave M-component model of Rakov et al. considering the presence of a vertically elevated strike object. The tall object is represented as a lossless, uniform transmission line. Expressions for the current ...

Distributed optomechanical fiber sensing based on serrodyne analysis

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Simon Adrien Zaslawski

Distributed measurement of forward stimulated Brillouin scattering (FSBS) attracted substantial attention for its ability to probe media surrounding optical fibers. Currently, all techniques extract the information from the FSBS-induced local energy transf ...

High-Power Testing of Guided-Wave Components for the ITER ECH Upper Launcher at the FALCON Test Facility

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Matteo Vagnoni

Each of the four ITER electron cyclotron heating (ECH) upper launchers (ULs) features eight transmission lines (TLs) made of guided-wave components used to inject 170-GHz microwave power into the plasma at a level of up to 1.31 MW per line, at the TL diamo ...

Opto-mechanical cross-talk reduction in air-holes multicore fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Simon Adrien Zaslawski, Yun Fu

We report on the use of air-holes in multicore fibers to alleviate intercore perturbations induced by forward stimulated Brillouin scattering. Comparisons with conventional multicore fibers show significant improvement in terms of cross-talk reduction. ...
