Abstract – A new and accurate refractive index profile synthesis method for optical waveguides is demonstrated using the transmitted near electric field data. This method is based on an inverse transmission line technique. From Maxwell’s equations, we derive a transmission line equivalent circuit for the refractive index profile of a cylindrical dielectric waveguide. We demonstrate how to use t...

A new edge beam emission polarimetry diagnostic dedicated to the measurement of the magnetic field line angle has been installed on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak. The new diagnostic relies on the motional Stark effect and is based on the simultaneous measurement of the polarization direction of the linearly polarized π (parallel to the electric field) and σ (perpendicular to the electric field) lin...

A true plane wave is often not physically realizable in a laboratory environment. Therefore, wavefront curvature introduces a form of systematic error into Free-space material characterization methods. Free-space material characterization is important to the determination of the electric permittivity and magnetic permeability of conductor-backed and in situ materials. This paper performs an err...

In this paper, the capacitance and inductance of a four-line transmission structure is characterized. The procedure used was developed by Ymeri et al for general analysis of multilayer multiconductor interconnects for specific applications in microelectronics. The characterization is based on the determination of the quasi-static electric scalar potential in the structure making up the four-lin...

The aim of this work is to forecast total electric demand of Turkey one day in advance using neural networks. Starting with random weights and getting unrealistic forecasts could not be acceptable for a real-time operation; therefore, available past data, which is the actual load data obtained from Turkish Electricity Authority, is used o.-line and the model is prepared for on-line forecasts. M...

The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra for the I=3/2 23Na cation dissolved into filamentous bacteriophage Pf1 solutions display line splittings and relaxation times consistent with an interaction between the 23Na nuclear quadrupole moment and the electric field gradient produced by the negatively charged Pf1 particles. The 23Na NMR line splittings and relaxation rates corresponding to mag...

A voltage transformer, as voltage signal detection equipment, plays an important role in a power system. Presently, more and more electric power systems are adopting potential transformer and capacitance voltage transformers. Transformers are often large in volume and heavyweight, their insulation design is difficult, and an iron core or multi-grade capacitance voltage division structure is gen...

Long-range interactions between cold Rydberg atoms are being investigated for neutral-atom quantum computing, quantum simulations, phase transitions in cold Rydberg gases and other applications. Fine tuning of the interaction strength can be implemented using Förster resonances between Rydberg atoms controlled by an electric field. The observation of the Stark-tuned Förster resonances between R...

We show experimentally that poly-crystalline TiO2 spheres, 20-30 μm in diameter, exhibit a magnetic dipole Mie resonance in the terahertz (THz) frequency band (1.0-1.6 THz) with a narrow line-width (<40 GHz). We detect and investigate the magnetic dipole and electric dipole resonances in single high-permittivity TiO2 microspheres, using a near-field probe with a sub-wavelength (~λ/50) size aper...

This letter is concerned with an interfacial edge crack in a piezoelectric bimaterial wedge interacting with a screw dislocation under antiplane mechanical and in-plane electric loading. In addition to a discontinuous electric potential across the slip plane, the dislocation is subjected to a line-force and a line-charge at the tip. The out-of-plane displacement and electric potentials are obta...
