We present noise and distortion measurements of multicast copies generated in a self-seeded parametric mixer. Linear mixer operation is achieved by distortion-free Brillouin suppression resulting in high signal-to-noise and distortion-ratio (SINAD) wavelen ...

Precision is a crucial property of noisy circadian oscillators that can be quantified by the quality factor (Q). Until now, deterministic properties of circadian oscillations like the period or amplitude attracted most of the attention while relatively few ...
We report on measurements of phase noise dynamics of microwave beat notes observed in low repetition rate silicon nitride based Kerr-comb generators and relate them to results from dispersion simulations and measurements. (C) 2011 Optical Society of Americ ...
A method for noise reduction in active-RC circuits is introduced. It is shown that the output noise in an active-RC circuit can be considerably reduced, without disturbing the circuit transfer function by inserting appropriate passive or active components ...

Optical frequency combs allow for the precise measurement of optical frequencies and are used in a growing number of applications. The new class of Kerr-frequency comb sources, based on parametric frequency conversion in optical microresonators, can comple ...
A portable voice capture device comprising: an orientable arm with a first differential array of microphones comprising at least one pair of microphones, the directivity of said first array being arranged for sensing voice from a first direction depending ...
The flow over a 2D bump at moderate Reynolds numbers is studied as a pro- totype of detached boundary layers. It is well known that such non-normal systems can exhibit large energy amplification even in their stable regime, as characterized by transient gr ...
Phase-noise mechanisms in cross-coupled LC voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) are reviewed based on a physical understanding of reactive power imbalances in the tank and in the active part. These phenomena are proven to be the predominant phase-noise de ...
On top of the many external perturbations, cellular oscillators also face intrinsic perturbations due the randomness of chemical kinetics. Biomolecular oscillators, distinct in their parameter sets or distinct in their architecture, show different resilien ...
