Stimulation cérébrale profondeLa est un traitement médical invasif consistant à implanter chirurgicalement dans le cerveau des électrodes, connectées à un boîtier mis en place sous la peau et qui délivre un courant électrique de faible intensité dans certaines structures spécifiques situées en profondeur de cet organe comme le thalamus ou certains noyaux des ganglions de la base, comme le noyau sous-thalamique ou le globus pallidus.
Neural networkA neural network can refer to a neural circuit of biological neurons (sometimes also called a biological neural network), a network of artificial neurons or nodes in the case of an artificial neural network. Artificial neural networks are used for solving artificial intelligence (AI) problems; they model connections of biological neurons as weights between nodes. A positive weight reflects an excitatory connection, while negative values mean inhibitory connections. All inputs are modified by a weight and summed.
Single-mode optical fiberIn fiber-optic communication, a single-mode optical fiber (SMF), also known as fundamental- or mono-mode, is an optical fiber designed to carry only a single mode of light - the transverse mode. Modes are the possible solutions of the Helmholtz equation for waves, which is obtained by combining Maxwell's equations and the boundary conditions. These modes define the way the wave travels through space, i.e. how the wave is distributed in space. Waves can have the same mode but have different frequencies.
Blue laserA blue laser emits electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 400 and 500 nanometers, which the human eye sees in the visible spectrum as blue or violet. Blue lasers can be produced by direct, inorganic diode semiconductor lasers based on quantum wells of gallium(III) nitride at 380-417nm or indium gallium nitride at 450nm diode-pumped solid-state infrared lasers with frequency-doubling to 405nm upconversion of direct diode semiconductor lasers via thullium or paraseodyium doped fibers at 480nm metal vapor, ionized gas lasers of helium-cadmium at 442 nm and 10-200 mW argon-ion lasers at 458 and 488 nm Lasers emitting wavelengths below 445 nm appear violet, but are called blue lasers.
ToxicologieLa est une discipline scientifique qui étudie les effets néfastes d'une source sur des organismes ou des systèmes biologiques. Elle est à l'interface entre plusieurs disciplines , la toxicologie s'applique à un toxique ou une association comme un produit fini qui contient plusieurs constituants.
Fiber laserA fiber laser (or fibre laser in Commonwealth English) is a laser in which the active gain medium is an optical fiber doped with rare-earth elements such as erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, dysprosium, praseodymium, thulium and holmium. They are related to doped fiber amplifiers, which provide light amplification without lasing. Fiber nonlinearities, such as stimulated Raman scattering or four-wave mixing can also provide gain and thus serve as gain media for a fiber laser.
Lumièrevignette|Rayons de lumière sortant des nuages. Dans son sens le plus habituel, la lumière est le phénomène à l'origine d'une sensation visuelle. La physique montre qu'il s'agit d'ondes électromagnétiques. Le spectre visible est la zone du spectre électromagnétique à laquelle est sensible l'espèce humaine ; il inclut la longueur d'onde où l'éclairement énergétique solaire est maximal à la surface de la Terre, par un effet d'adaptation à l'environnement. Il s'étend autour d'une longueur d'onde de , plus ou moins un tiers.
Diode électroluminescentethumb|Diodes de différentes couleurs.|alt= thumb|upright|Symbole de la diode électroluminescente.|alt= Une diode électroluminescente (abrégé en DEL en français, ou LED, de llight-emitting diode) est un dispositif opto-électronique capable d'émettre de la lumière lorsqu'il est parcouru par un courant électrique. Une diode électroluminescente ne laisse passer le courant électrique que dans un seul sens et produit un rayonnement monochromatique ou polychromatique non cohérent par conversion d'énergie électrique lorsqu'un courant la traverse.
Laser printingLaser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics (and moderate-quality photographs) by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image. The drum then selectively collects electrically charged powdered ink (toner), and transfers the image to paper, which is then heated to permanently fuse the text, imagery, or both, to the paper.
Fiber-optic cableA fiber-optic cable, also known as an optical-fiber cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable but containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable is used. Different types of cable are used for optical communication in different applications, for example long-distance telecommunication or providing a high-speed data connection between different parts of a building.
