pulse oximetry measures the relative concentration of arterial oxygenated hemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin. this paper presents the design of a pulse oximeter, which measures the presence of a third substance, carboxyhemoglobin (hbco), by unfiltered leds at 660 nm, 810 nm, and 940 nm. background information is given on the theory of pulse oximetry. theoretical approximations and calculations w...

Introduction The purpose of the current study was to determine optical sensitivity of N-isopropyl acrylamide NIPAM and polyacrylamide gelatin and tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphoniun chloride (PAGAT) polymer gels for different wavelength of visible light spectrum applied in optical computed tomography method. Materials and Methods NIPAM and PAGAT polymer gels with conventional formulations used f...

Until now all well-studied dark energy models proposed have very large Compton wavelengths, λc > 100Mpc at all time and hence show no clustering on small scales. Evidence against this would disfavour both ΛCDM and quintessence. We show however, that large λc is actually slightly favoured by current CMB, LSS and SN1a data by comparing quintessence with a condensate scenario with the same backgro...

naphthol isomers were simultaneously and spectrophotometrically determined in wastewater, using a model based on net analyte signal (nas). the calibration method used is a variation of the original hybrid linear analysis method as proposed by goicoechea and olivieri (hla/go). owing to spectral interferences, the simultaneous determination of mixtures of naphthol isomers, using a spectrophotomet...

in this work the performance of a wavelength division multiple access (wdma) system with direct detection receiver is investigated. for this purpose, the probability of error in a wdma network with ook modulation considering crosstalk, isi, photo detector noise and thermal noise is calculated and the effect of each on system performance is investigated. the system performance in presence of pin...

data transmission in optical systems and increased transmission distance capacity benefit by using optical amplification wavelength division multiplexing (wdm) technology. the combination of four waves (fwm) is a non-linear effect in the wavelength division multiplex (wdm), when more than two wavelengths of light in a fiber launch will occur. fwm amount depends on the channel, the channel spaci...

Metallic nanoparticles can exhibit very large optical extinction in the visible spectrum due to localized surface plasmon resonance. Spherical plasmonic nanoparticles have been the subject of numerous studies in recent years due to the fact that the scattering response of spheres can be analytically evaluated using Mie theory. However a major disadvantage of metallic spherical nanoparticles is ...
