We investigate bi-component magnonic crystals consisting of periodic square lattices of Co nanodiscs embedded in Permalloy thin films. Micromagnetic simulations are used to analyse experimental data obtained with both all-electrical broadband spectroscopy ...
Diffraction properties of thin films of dewetted cyanine dye droplets are investigated and related to the complex refractive index. Strong changes in the index of refraction are often found near the absorption edge of organic dyes. Within a small window of ...
Like photonic crystals have revolutionized the way of manipulating optical waves at the sub-micron scale, phononic crystals have more recently played similar decisive role for sound waves, or more generally elastic waves. Then, the idea of coupling light a ...
Optical frequency references are devices providing well-defined and stable optical frequency responses to incoming radiation for applications such as high-precision spectroscopy and optical fibre communications. To stabilise the emission frequency of laser ...
Photonic Crystal Fibers (PCF) play a crucial role for fundamental investigations such as acousto-optical interactions as well as for applications, such as distributed sensors. One limiting factor for these experiments is the fiber inhomogeneity owing to th ...
Brillouin scattering is particularly efficient and attractive for the implementation of strain and temperature distributed sensing in optical fibres. Recently a trend has been observed that modern advanced applications require a substantial step towards be ...
Owing to the advantages of the optical fibre, such as lightweight, small size, low cost and immunity to electromagnetic interferences, the fibre sensors have been applied in diverse fields and the scientific research on fibre sensing keeps improving to mee ...
Temperature and strain discrimination is experimentally demonstrated in an elliptical-core polarization-maintaining fiber by making use of Rayleigh-based distributed birefringence measurements and the frequency shift of the correlation peak obtained by sta ...
A shape sensor exploiting Brillouin scattering measurements in multicore fibers is presented. Based on previous reports1, the shape sensor’s principle of operation is firstly described. The presented idea is realized through Brillouin Frequency Shift (BFS) ...
This thesis presents results of a research on applications of Brillouin dynamic gratings - distributed reflectors that can be dynamically created in an optical fibre by two optical waves. A basic theory of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is introduce ...
