The rising internet use, digital transformation, and expanding telecom networks have increased demand for high-speed data transmission. However, Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) remains a major challenge, degrading signal quality and limiting data rates in optical fiber systems. This study investigates the impact of PMD on high-speed single-mode optical fiber systems by analyzing...

The growing demand for environmentally friendly solutions to combat industrial pollutants has led to the exploration of nano-piezomaterials for water purification. This study reveals that piezoelectric effects contribute significantly, constituting around 90% of the catalytic response in BaTiO3 50nm compared to non-piezoelectric BaTiO3 10nm.

Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are among the most compelling candidates for particle dark matter, and their direct detection remains one of the central goals of astroparticle physics. Dual-phase liquid argon time projection chambers have emerged as one of the leading technologies for probing light galactic dark matter, particularly for masses below $10~\mathrm{GeV}/c^{2}$, as...

The GeV Cube detector (GCD) is being designed as a new diagnostic for high-energy particle detection from short-pulse, high-powered laser sources [1]. In particular, the GCD will be employed to study the Ponderomotive acceleration of electrons from petawatt-class laser systems [2].
The GCD is designed to detect and identify single electrons with energies in the range of 50 MeV to 1 GeV. It...

Due to the ever-larger number of ever-smaller devices, the morphological perfection of the devices' surfaces, and the related characterization techniques, have become increasingly important for micro-electromechanical systems, nanoelectronics, opto-electronic, and even more critically, photonic devices, due to the significant effects surface topography has on the device performance. A...

There is an acute need for non-invasive measurements of viscosity in bioactive solutions (formulations). Transition times from a stationary sample to a solid body rotation carry information on viscosity. We demonstrate a portable NMR measurement to detect transition times as a proof-of-principle, with further improvements in the works.

Experimental apparatuses in atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics require precise control of the free-space alignment of optical components. Such control is often achieved by actuating micrometer screws on various optical mounts. Fluctuations in environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity, necessitate re-optimization of the alignment.
Motorized kinematic mounts enable...

Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) are increasingly adopted as the photosensors of choice in next-generation dark matter experiments due to their high photodetection efficiency and low operating voltage. In large detector arrays, however, SiPM performance can be significantly degraded by correlated noise processes, particularly external cross-talk, in which photons emitted from the triggering of...
