Toward Mid-Infrared, Subdiffraction, Spectral-Mapping of Human Cells and Tissue: SNIM (Scanning Near-Field Infrared Microscopy) Tip Fabrication (2015)
Journal Article

Scanning near-field infrared microscopy (SNIM) potentially enables subdiffraction, broadband mid-infrared (MIR:3–25-μm wavelength range) spectral-mapping of human cells and tissue for real-time molecular sensing, with prospective use in disease diagn...

Predictive, Miniature Co-Extrusion of Multilayered Glass Fiber-Optic Preforms (2015)
Journal Article

A miniature co-extrusion technique, to produce a concentric multilayered glass fiber-optic preform of ~3 mm diameter, is modeled and experimentally demonstrated. A three-dimensional, incompressible, noncavitating, and nonisothermal Computational Flui... Read More about Predictive, Miniature Co-Extrusion of Multilayered Glass Fiber-Optic Preforms.

Core/clad phosphate glass fibres containing iron and/or titanium (2015)
Journal Article

Phosphate glasses are novel amorphous biomaterials due to their fully resorbable characteristics, with controllable degradation profiles. In this study, phosphate glasses containing titanium and/or iron were identified to exhibit sufficiently matched... Read More about Core/clad phosphate glass fibres containing iron and/or titanium.

Low loss Ge-As-Se chalcogenide glass fiber, fabricated using extruded preform, for midinfrared photonics (2015)
Journal Article

Chalcogenide glass fibers have attractive properties (e.g. wide transparent window, high optical non-linearity) and numerous potential applications in the mid-infrared (MIR) region. Low optical loss is desired and important in the development of thes... Read More about Low loss Ge-As-Se chalcogenide glass fiber, fabricated using extruded preform, for midinfrared photonics.

Mid-infrared photoluminescence in small-core fiber of praseodymium-ion doped selenide-based chalcogenide glass (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Optical Society of America. Rare earth (RE)-ion doped chalcogenide glasses are attractive for mid-infrared (MIR) fiber lasers for operation >4 μm. Our prior modeling suggests that praseodymium (Pr) is a suitable RE-ion dopant for realizing a s...

Correlating structure with non-linear optical properties in xAs40Se60 x (1 ? x)As40S60 glasses (2015)
Journal Article

A series of xAs40Se60·(100 − x)As40S60 glasses, where x = 0, 25, 33, 50, 67, 75 and 100 mol% As40Se60, has been studied using neutron and X-ray total scattering, Raman spectroscopy and 77Se MAS-NMR. The results are presented with measurements of non-... Read More about Correlating structure with non-linear optical properties in xAs40Se60 x (1 ? x)As40S60 glasses.
