Escherichia coli-based bioreporters for arsenic detection are typically based on the natural feedback loop that controls ars operon transcription. Feedback loops are known to show a wide range linear response to the detriment of the overall amplification o ...
This thesis focuses on the development of some fixed-order controller design methods in the gain-scheduling/Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) framework. Gain-scheduled controllers designed using frequency-domain Single Input Single Output (SISO) models are co ...
We report first experimental demonstration of single stage, self-seeded 2-pump fiber optic parametric amplifier for simultaneous wavelength conversions. 320 Gb/s single channel OTDM signal was successfully copied to 5 wavelengths with
This thesis presents the coherence properties of polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. Semiconductor microcavities are microstructures in which the exciton ground state of a semiconductor quantum well is coupled to a photonic mode of a microresonator. ...
The objective of the thesis is to study the possibility of using input-output feedback linearization techniques for controlling nonlinear nonminimum-phase systems. Two methods are developed. The first one is based on an approximate input-output feedback li ...
A parametric feedback oscillator includes a resonator which has at least one transduction element and at least one electromechanical resonating element. The resonator is configured to accept as input a parametric excitation signal at a frequency 2[omega]0 ...
We report an experimental demonstration of optical parametric generation in a periodically poled KTiOP O4 crystal based on the principle of mirrorless optical parametric oscillation. A femtosecond pump pulse spectrally centered at 792 nm from a Ti:sapphire ...
We describe a holographic technique capable of sampling dynamic events at 150 femtosecond time resolution. We apply the technique to the study of the nonlinear propagation of high energy pulses through gas and condensed media. The holograms are recorded as ...
We report an optical switch based on a diffraction grating by combining PDMS microstructures with a photo-responsive Nematic Liquid Crystal (NLC). The grating was realized via replica molding and was subsequently coated with a thin SiO layer. SiO induced a ...
We present a novel high power femtosecond infrared laser source, based on a three-stage chirped-pulse amplification scheme. Owing to the high power output of the Ti:sapphire amplifiers, it becomes routinely possible to produce femtosecond infrared laser pu ...
