The characteristics of biochemical sensors based on photonic crystal (PC) resonators are investigated in this work. The PC structure consists of holes arranged in a hexagonal lattice on a silicon slab. The nanoring r...

This paper describes a newly patented, low power, ovenized oscillator with the crystal heated directly by means of a thin film resistive heater deposited on its surface. Mounting the resonator inside an evacuated enclosure forms a miniature "thermos" bottle. The only significant path for heat loss is through the resonator mounting ribbons and posts and these, being long and thin, have quite hig...

The resonator of a solid-state vibratory gyro is responsible for sensing angular motion. Frequency splitting of an axisymmetric-shell resonator is a common problem caused by manufacturing defects. The defect causes a frequency difference between two working modes which consist of two nodes and two antinodes. The difference leads to the loss of gyroscopic effect, and thus the resonator cannot se...

It has been shown recently that stimulated Raman radiation can be built up in the off-axis direction using a resonator the axis of which is rotated from the axis of the ruby laser resonator.'S3 The stimulated Brillouin scattering which has been found by Chiao, Townes, and Stoicheff4 shows a characteristic which is different from that of the stimulated Raman scatterings: the stimulated Brillouin...

A technique for contactless electromagnetic interrogation of AT-cut quartz piezoelectric resonator sensors is proposed based on a primary coil electromagnetically air-coupled to a secondary coil connected to the electrodes of the resonator. The interrogation technique periodically switches between interleaved excitation and detection phases. During the excitation phase, the resonator is set int...

By controlling the internal loss of a ring resonator near critical coupling, we demonstrate control of the transmitted power in a fiber that is coupled to the resonator. We also demonstrate wavelength-selective optical amplification and oscillation.

A microring resonator sensor device for sensitive detection of the explosive 1,3,5-trinitrotoluene (TNT) is presented. It is based on the combination of a silicon microring resonator and tailored receptor molecules.

in this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. the rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index nsi=3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of nair=1.the widest photonic band gap obtains for the filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. the filter’s transmis...

This thesis presents design of dielectric resonator loaded antenna for wireless applications. The design is a Different shape Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) using different material for wireless applications. Here the DRA is excited by conformal patch connected to co-axial feeding which is an effective feed mechanism and more efficient in energy coupling than other types of feeding techniqu...

We show how the coherent oscillations of a nanomechanical resonator can be entangled with a microwave cavity in the form of a superconducting copla-nar resonator. Dissipation is included and realistic values for experimental parameters are estimated.
