We present a method for the generation of THz pulses with tailored temporal shape from nonlinear metasurfaces. The method is based on single-cycle THz emission by the metasurface inclusions. We show that the spatial amplitude and phase structure of the nonlinear response is mapped to the temporal shape of pulses emitted at certain angles. We […] Read More >
Broad-Bandwidth, Long-Haul, Underwater Fiber-Optic Sensing System
An optical fiber can be described as a glass pipeline which can guide light over great distances with very little loss. In addition to being the central communication channel of the information era, it has another very interesting application. This application is called distributed sensing. By launching into the fiber specially designed pulse sequences of […] Read More >
An On-Chip Sub-THz Scalable Beam Steering Antenna Array
We present a novel way of distributing signal to an antenna array without the use of power dividers. In our proposed method, we use the leaked fundamental from a non-linear harmonic generator circuit as an input to drive the next element in the chain. As a proof of concept, we show this distribution method at […] Read More >
Fiber optic shape sensing (FOSS) is an emerging technology which uses optical fibers for real-time 3-dimensional (3D) sensing of the shape of objects in space. It has many advantages with respect to competing technologies. These include ease of installation, flexibility and compactness, immunity to electromagnetic interference, low weight, compatibility with harsh environments, compatibility with in-vivo […] Read More >
Visual Data Transfer Between the End and Side of a Multimode Fiber
It is well known that light propagation in optical fibers is accompanied by random omnidirectional scattering. This type of scattering is called ‘Rayleigh scattering’ and is due to small inhomogeneities in the fiber core. The small fraction of coherent guided light that escapes outside the cladding of the fiber forms a speckle pattern. While works […] Read More >
LWIR / FIR / THz Detectors and Sources For High Sensitivity Remote Sensing
The discoveries of novel materials and physical phenomena continuously drive technological advancements and their applications. So is the case for Terahertz (THz) optoelectronics, operating roughly in the frequency range of f≈0.5-35THz. In this spectral range radiation penetrates through opaque materials without the risk of ionization, making THz radiation highly attractive for technological applications, such as […] Read More >
Polarization imaging is a technique that creates a pixel-map of the polarization state in a scene. Although invisible to the human eye (and for most conventional cameras), polarization can assist various sensing and computer vision tasks. Existing polarization cameras acquire the additional modality using either spatial or temporal multiplexing, which increases the camera volume, weight, […] Read More >
Optical fibers are widely known in their ability to transfer huge amounts of data efficiently and cost-effectively. As the backbone of our communications networks, optical fibers are everywhere: underground or aerial in our streets, underwater in the oceans, along highways, railways, pipelines, power lines and fences, in campuses and in data centers. Optical fibers are […] Read More >
Incidental Detection of Colon Cancer Using AI Analysis of Abdominal CT Scans
Detecting colon cancer in general abdominal CT scans, i.e. without bowel emptying performed before colonoscopy, is extremely challenging. With nowadays technology, it is not possible to automatically detect cancer in the large intestine without prior preparation of the intestine as required in colonoscopy. A study has revealed that more than 20% of malignant findings in […] Read More >
