Electro-elastic coupling modelling from multiple wavelengths imaging microscopy

A Novel Electro-Optic Measurement System using Multiple Wavelengths

In this thesis, I present a novel, replicated multi-wavelength electro-optic measurement system. In the proposed system, multiple laser sources at different wavelengths go through an electro-optic modulator at the same time to measure a single electrical pulse. The primary aim is to increase the number of temporal measurement points beyond what can be achieved by conventional methods. Since the...

Electro-optical imaging microscopy of dye-doped artificial lipidic membranes.

Artificial lipidic bilayers are widely used as a model for the lipid matrix in biological cell membranes. We use the Pockels electro-optical effect to investigate the properties of an artificial lipidic membrane doped with nonlinear molecules in the outer layer. We report here what is believed to be the first electro-optical Pockels signal and image from such a membrane. The electro-optical dep...

Non-linear electro-elastic coupling in highly strained zinc-blende compounds: InGaP/GaP [111] quantum wells

Performance of electro-optical plasmonic ring resonators at telecom wavelengths.

In this work we report on the characteristics of an electro-optical dielectric-loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide ring resonator. By doping the dielectric host matrix with an electro-optical material and designing an appropriate set of planar electrodes, we measured a 16% relative change of transmission upon application of a controlled electric field. We have analyzed the temporal respo...

Nonlinear Local Electro-Vascular Coupling

In Riera et al. (2006), a Local Electro-Vascular Coupling (LEVC) model was proposed to explain the continuous dynamics of electrical and vascular states within a cortical unit. These states produce certain mesoscopic reflections whose discrete time series can be reconstructed from ElectronEncephaloGram (EEG) and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). In this paper, we develop a recursive...
