High-precision data analysis for TFBG-assisted refractometer
Sensors and Actuators, A: Physical. 2020. Vol. 308. Article 112016.
The paper is devoted to the tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG)-assisted fiber refractometer. A novel math-ematical method for the automatic analysis of its signal is proposed. A change in the refractive indexis associated with a hange in the cut-off wavelength, which is determined from the envelopes of thesensor’s transmission spectrum. Distinctive features of the proposed approach include its simplicity andhigh measurement accuracy. The implementation of the proposed mathematical apparatus resulted inthe resolution of the sensor being calculated as 5 × 10−5RIU, according to the experimental results. Inthis case, the measurements were carried out in a fully automatic mode. The proposed approach opensup prospects for the application of fiber refractometers in physics, chemistry, and medicine.

We analytically consider the problem of the Langmuir instability. The instability describes emergence of transverse modulation of horizontal current with vertical shear, when it is superimposed on surface wave co-directional with the flow. Compared to the Craik–Leibovich scheme, we account for the scattering of surface wave on the modulated current, which is significant if the ...

Understanding the properties of two-dimensional material interfaces with the substrate is necessary for device applications. Surface acoustic wave propagation through a layered material flake on a substrate could provide unique information on the transverse rigidity of the flake-to-substrate interaction. Ultrasonic waves were generated by a focused femtosecond laser pulse at the surface of a model ...

We develop a three-mode statistical-mechanical theory for a two-conformer
solute in a near-critical solvent. A compressible lattice model with
vacancies yields the Gaussian free-energy functional for a critical conserved
density, an orthogonal noncritical conserved mode, and the local conformer
fraction. Their couplings follow from packing and cohesive interactions,
rather than being introduced phenomenologically. Kawasaki transport of the
two conserved fields and ...

The planar microcavity structure was grown using molecular-beam epitaxy.
Single-mode lasing was observed at a wavelength of 960 nm for pillars with a diameter of
15 μm. At 300 K, the lasing threshold was approximately 30 mW. Increasing the pump
power to 2.7 times the threshold power resulted in a mode energy shift of approximately
1 meV. This shift ...

We examine plasma excitations with linear dispersion in a system of superconducting electrons in thin
NbN disks. Using frequency-domain terahertz spectroscopy, we study the evolution of plasmons up to critical
temperature Tc. The observed excitations tend to shift to the lower frequencies while temperature is increasing
and the spectral features vanish at T > Tc. We study the ...

We demonstrate a thermo-optically tunable microlaser based on an InGaAs/GaAs quantum-dot (QD) active region employing a deformed limaçon-shaped cavity. The asymmetric geometry effectively lifts the degeneracy of high-Q whispering-gallery modes, enabling single-mode lasing. A side-mode suppression ratio exceeds 25 dB over a wide current range. Under continuous-wave electrical pumping, the device achieves a peak output power ...

Exact theories of electrolyte structure must satisfy the nonlocal constraints imposed by electrostatic screening, yet these constraints are most commonly formulated only for homogeneous bulk systems and at the level of two-point correlations. Here, we develop a unified field-theoretic framework that extends them to general inhomogeneous ionic fluids and nonlinear charge correlations. Using a standard ...

We report a theoretical study of the ac response of superconducting quantum metamaterials (SQMs), i.e., an array of qubits (two-level systems) embedded in a low-dissipative resonator. By making use of a particular example of a SQM, namely the array of charge qubits capacitively coupled to the resonator, we obtain a second-order phase transition between an ...

Identifying the microscopic processes limiting conductivity is essential for understanding correlated quantum materials. In twisted bilayer graphene, metallic resistivity follows ρ ~ Tα with widely varying α, fueling competing interpretations from phonon-limited transport and umklapp scattering to strange metallicity and heavy-fermion renormalization. Here, we use terahertz excitation to selectively heat electrons while keeping the lattice cold, separating ...
