A high power and good beam quality InGaAs/GaAs quantum well semiconductor disk laser at 1 015 nm wavelength is reported. The semiconductor wafer is grown in reverse order: substrate is on the window side and the distributed Bragg reflector is the last gro
Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy (DOS) is a promising non-invasive and non-ionizing technique for breast anomaly detection. In this study, we have developed a new handheld DOS probe to measure optical properties of breast tissue. In the proposed probe, the br
This study proposes a new hybrid Mach-Zehnder interferometric (MZI) sensor based on two core-offset attenuators and an abrupt taper in a single-mode fiber fabricated by a fiber-taper machine and electric arc discharge. When the distance between the two co
