Performance characteristics of a therapeutic ultrasound wire waveguide apparatus

Therapeutic ultrasound angioplasty has been investigated, clinically, by a number of researchers and represents a potentially promising therapy for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions. To date, there has been no detailed analysis of the effect of mechanical design parameters, such as wire geometry or damping characteristics, on wire waveguide performance. An apparatus capable of delivering therapeutic ultrasound down small diameter nickel–titanium (NiTi) wire waveguides is described. The output peak-to-peak (p–p) displacements at the distal tip of a 1.0 mm diameter waveguide were measured experimentally, by means of an optical microscope and image analysis software. The output was measured for a range of waveguide lengths from 118 to 303 mm. Wire waveguide distal tip displacements as high as 98 μm (p–p) at 23.5 kHz were measured. For the range of lengths tested, the experimental measurements show the critical relationship between the length of the waveguide and the output distal tip displacements. A finite element model that can predict the resonant frequencies and distal tip displacements of various wire waveguide geometries and configurations, including the effect of damping, is presented. This numerical model has been validated against the experimental displacement data obtained. This will be a valuable design tool for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of therapeutic ultrasound angioplasty procedures.

The properties of lattice-shifted microcavity in photonic crystal slab and its applications for electro-optical sensor

In this paper, a micro electro-optic sensor structure and its sensing technique based on lattice-shifted resonant microcavity (H0-nanocavity) in a triangular lattice photonic crystals (PhCs) slab are presented. The H0-nanocavity is formed by only laterally shifting two adjacent holes outwards slightly in the opposite direction, which can realize a nanocavity with high quality factor (Q) value to meet the requirements of practical application. The electro-optic sensor is realized in hole-array based photonic crystal slab with triangular lattice air holes infiltrated with a nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer (n_poly = 1.6) in Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) operating in the wavelength range from 1400 nm to 1600 nm. The simulation results of PhC electro-sensitive structure show that the optical properties of PhCs can be used to design sensing devices characterized by a high degree of compactness and good resolution. The properties of the sensor are analyzed and calculated using the plane-wave expansion (PWE) method and simulated using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The simulation results display that the resonant wavelength of the mode localized in the microcavity shifts its spectral drop position following a linear behavior when a driving voltage ranging between 0.0 V and 3.2 V is applied, and the sensitivity of 31.90 nm/V is observed.     

Fluorinated poly(arylene ether sulfone)s for polymeric optical waveguide devices

Pentafluorophenyl sulfone was prepared by oxidation of pentafluorophenyl sulfide. Ethynyl terminated fluorinated poly(arylene ether sulfone) (EFPAESO) was synthesized via nucleophilic aromatic substitution from 4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphenol or 4,4′-(trifluoromethylphenylisopropylidene) diphenol with an excess of pentafluorophenyl sulfone, followed by reaction with 3-ethylnylphenol. The molecular weights (M_ns) of the polymers determined by GPC with polystyrene standard were in the range of 6,400-17,200 and polydispersities (M_w/M_ns) were in the range of 2.25-3.19. This EFPAESO showed very high thermal stability up to 479 °C for 5% weight loss in TGA in air. T_g of the polymer was changed from 148 to 196 °C after curing. The cured films showed good chemical resistance and high thermal-stability. At 1550 nm wavelength, the refractive indices of the copolymer films were in the range of 1.5037-1.5504 and birefringences were in the range of 0.0021-0.0025. The optical loss for EFPAESO was less than 0.37 dB/cm at 1550 nm wavelength.     

Waveguide-based near-eye display with dual-channel exit pupil expander

We propose a waveguide-based near-eye display featuring a dual-channel exit pupil expander, which is composed of an in-coupler, relay gratings, and an out-coupler. Unlike the conventional waveguide-based near-eye displays, whose field of views are usually non-split or partially split, our dual-channel exit pupil expander is able to evenly split the field of view into two halves. The greatest benefit of doing so is that the upper limit of field of view could be significantly increased. The design rules for all components, including the microdisplay, collimating lens, waveguide and gratings, have been studied. The refractive index and dimension of waveguide are identified as two factors that limit the field of view. In what follows, its key specifications are recapitulated. Field of view is 70° (diagonal), eye relief is 15 mm, exit pupil is 20 × 9 mm², modulation transfer function is above 0.591 at 30 cycle/degree, contrast ratio is 13, and distortion is 1.38%.     

Use of electromagnetic two-layer wave-guided propagation in the GPR frequency range to characterize water transfer in concrete

The objective of this paper is to adapt a recent innovative technique for extracting and exploiting the Electromagnetic (EM) waveguide dispersion of civil engineering materials by means of GPR, and allowing to monitor the water ingress front during the absorption process for various concrete mixes. This technique is based on an inversion procedure that applies the Electromagnetic Waveguide Model (WGM) to invert phase velocity dispersion curves in their modal form. A Parallel homogenization model, derived from the Lichtenecker-Rother equation, has been employed to extend the waveguide model from a one-layer to a two-layer medium. The WGM outputs are then used to estimate the geometric parameters of the propagation medium and offer a primary application to water transfer monitoring in concrete through capillarity effects. The initial WGM validation is carried out on FDTD-simulated propagation signals, while the second validation relies on GPR data acquired from homogeneous materials. Then, a broad-based experimental study is conducted for the purpose of correlating electromagnetic waveguide dispersion parameters with both the geometric and hydric characteristics of various concrete mixes. Results obtained using the two-layer WGM serve to monitor the water ingress front during an absorption process. These results are then compared to the moisture gradients generated on cores using gammadensimetry, which is set as the reference. This procedure yields a number of trends, which in turn provide key information on the conditioning state of the studied concretes.     

Fabrication and characterization of large-core Yb/Al-codoped fused silica waveguides using dry etching

A deep inductively coupled plasma etching process was developed as a part of a continuous effort to develop an all-silica on-chip platform for high-power optical devices. Combined F and Cl based etching chemistry was found most suitable since silica matrix and Al doping are generally etched using different chemistries. First large-core (∼20 × 20 μm) Yb/Al-codoped fused silica waveguides on pure silica substrate were successfully fabricated, featuring ∼1 dB/cm optical propagation loss.
