چکیده

In their report on laser Doppler flow measurements (J. Biomed. Eng. 1985, 7, 225) Boggett et al. compared, among other things, three different light sources for use in a laser Doppler device. The aim of that study was to distinguish between Doppler shifted and non-shifted backscattered light to obtain a flow dependent signal, which is not caused by intensity fluctuations due to number fluctuations, laser amplitude instabilities or other unwanted causes. We wish to comment on that paper.

Improving the Thermal Characteristics of Semiconductor Lasers Using a New Asymmetric Waveguide Structure

   Self-heating leads to a temperature rise of the laser diode and limits the output power and efficiency due to increased loss and decreased differential gain. To control device self-heating, it is required to design the laser structure with a low optical loss, while the heat flux must spread out of the device efficiently. In this study, a new asymmetric waveguide design is proposed and th...

Simultaneous measurement of water flow velocity with fluorescent and speckle imaging technique

The average velocity of water flow has been simultaneously measured with fluorescent and speckle imaging methods. The measured velocities with two methods are in good agreement with each other and it confirms that the speckle imaging method can be used as a confident method to measure the velocity of water flow in a dry leaf. Also the velocity of water flow through thick and thin xylems of a le...
