An intense solar energetic particle (SEP) event was detected in September 2004 by near-Earth spacecraft and by Ulysses at 5.4 AU.
The influence of laser phase noise on a 400MB/s optical DPSK system is experimentally investigated with linewidths ranging from 1.2MHz to 8MHz.
We investigate experimentally the effect of measurement conditions on the accuracy of polarization-mode dispersion vectors obtained using the polarization-dependent signal delay method.
In this paper, we compare the experimentally and theoretically obtained single-mode responses of a cantilever beam.
Simulations and measurements at 40Gbit/s show that RZ-DPSK is more robust to narrow-band optical filtering than on/off keying (OOK), in particular if balanced DPSK detection is employed.
Introduction rates of dominant defects have been determined for electron-irradiated, p-type silicon as a function of oxygen and boron concentration.
An oxalate precursor precipitate is prepared by reacting carbonate, hydroxide and/or oxides with oxalic acid in heated aqueous solution.
A solder joint reliability evaluation was conducted for PBGA packages assembled with Pb-free SAC solder balls and paste.
Prolonged higher temperature passivation anneals are purported to minimize metal coverage induced transistor mismatch in multi-level-metal (MLM) CMOS circuits.
Polarization dependent loss and polarization mode dispersion have been treated as separate phenomena in optical transmission systems.
