In this intelligent fault detecting system in an optical fibre used to find the fault in optic fibre line. To design a fault monitoring module and find the fault in the line says across the customer sides. The idea behind this module is to monitor the received power supply in optical fibre using a Microcontroller. Laser output power monitoring circuit is designed using ISIS simulator to monitor...

Expertise of packaging for optoelectronic components requires the solution of optical, mechanical and electrical problems in the same way. The purpose of this study is to present three-dimensional simulations using finite element method (FEM) of thermomechanical stresses and strains in transmitter Laser modules induced by Nd:YAG crystal Laser welds on main sub-assembly Laser submount. Non-linea...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to compare efficacy, early postoperative morbidity and patient comfort of two laser wavelengths and fibre types in treatment of great saphenous vein (GSV) incompetence resulting in varicosities of the lower limb. DESIGN Prospective randomised clinical trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty patients (106 limbs) were randomised into two groups. They were treate...

We demonstrate a fibre laser source generating ultrashort pulses tunable in the range 2-2.5 μm. The source is based on a hybrid Er/Tm fiber laser system and microstructured suspended-core tellurite fiber where Raman soliton shifting occurs. Nonlinear soliton dynamics is studied and possibility of tuning beyond 3 μm is shown.

In-fibre Bragg gratings are sensor elements which are photo-written into optical fibre using intense ultra-violet laser beams and have the potential for the measurement of strain/deformation and temperature with applications reported including monitoring of highways, bridges, aerospace components and in chemical and biological sensors. The development of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) measuring sy...

This article examines the development of a laser pretreatment method for glass fibre reinforced polypropylene surfaces for industrial applications. This work aims to create a reproducible surface for bonding low-energy polypropylene which adheres very poorly to most adhesives and forms to the matrix material for plastic composites. The combination of glass fibres with polypropylene in the form ...

AIMS Scanning laser polarimetry is a new technique allowing quantitative analysis of the retinal nerve fibre layer in vivo. This technique was employed to investigate the variation of the retinal nerve fibre layer thickness in a group of normal subjects of different ages and ethnic groups. METHODS 150 normal volunteers of different ages and ethnic groups were recruited for this study. Three c...

Ultrashort-pulse lasers with spectral tuning capability have widespread applications in fields such as spectroscopy, biomedical research and telecommunications. Mode-locked fibre lasers are convenient and powerful sources of ultrashort pulses, and the inclusion of a broadband saturable absorber as a passive optical switch inside the laser cavity may offer tuneability over a range of wavelengths...
