Microstructure for Thermal Impedance Spectroscopy for Biofuel Composition Measurement
Thermal impedance spectroscopy has been investigated as a non-destructive technique to determine the composition of ternary mixtures of biofuels. The principle of the thermal conductivity detector has been extended for measuring both the thermal conductivity and the thermal capacity of biofuel in the range between 1 to 100 Hz, using an AC-operated polysilicon heater for injecting a sinusoidal h...
متن کاملCavity ring-up spectroscopy for ultrafast sensing with optical microresonators
Spectroscopy of whispering-gallery mode microresonators has become a powerful scientific tool, enabling the detection of single viruses, nanoparticles and even single molecules. Yet the demonstrated timescale of these schemes has been limited so far to milliseconds or more. Here we introduce a scheme that is orders of magnitude faster, capable of capturing complete spectral snapshots at nanosec...
متن کاملOptical Fiber Sensing Based on Reflection Laser Spectroscopy
An overview on high-resolution and fast interrogation of optical-fiber sensors relying on laser reflection spectroscopy is given. Fiber Bragg-gratings (FBGs) and FBG resonators built in fibers of different types are used for strain, temperature and acceleration measurements using heterodyne-detection and optical frequency-locking techniques. Silica fiber-ring cavities are used for chemical sens...
متن کاملAltering Lignin Composition to Improve Biofuel Production.
Through the wonders of fermentation, simple sugars derived from enzymatic degradation of cellulose and hemicellulose in the plant cell wall are converted to the biofuel cellulosic ethanol, an attractive alternative to fossil fuels and grain-derived ethanol (Solomon et al., 2007). Before this fermentation takes place, however, the rigid lignin network in the cell wall must be loosened with hot a...
متن کاملHEAT TREATMENT AND OPTICAL SPECTROSCOPY OF CR4+:GGG FOR PASSIVELY Q-SWITCHING ND:GARNET LASERS
High quality GGG:Cr,Ca crystal for passive Q-switching Nd:garnet lasers has been grown by the Czochralski method. Thermal treatment of GGG crystals co-doped with Cr4+ and Ca2+ at different temperatures is investigated. The absorption spectra were resolved into different peaks, of modified Gaussian line-shape. Transition from octahedral sites to tetrahedral ones is thermally activated. An...
