In the mode-division multiplexing (MDM) optical transmission system, a mode multi/demultiplexer is an important key device for excitation, multiplication, and separation of light signals which have distinct modes. In this report, we propose a fiber-type mode multi/demultiplexer based on selective phase matching between different cores/modes. Design method and device characteristics of 1x4 mode ...

We experimentally show that two-photon path-entangled states can be coherently manipulated by multi-mode interference in multi-mode waveguides. By measuring the output two-photon spatial correlation function versus the phase of the input state, we show that multi-mode waveguides perform as nearly-ideal multi-port beam splitters at the quantum level, creating a large variety of entangled and sep...

The purpose of this problem is to choose a set of project activities for crashing, in a way that the expected project time, cost and risk are minimized and the expected quality is maximized. In this problem, each project activity can be performed with a specific executive mode. Each executive mode is characterized with four measures, namely the expected time, cost, quality and risk. In this pap...

A multi-functional, three-mode, self-exciting pneumatic vibroactuator was investigated. The special feature of this is that it consists two excitation chambers connected by an elastic synchronizing chain. mathematical model the created, which solved numerical methods. laws (modes) movement working organ have been determined: harmonic, non-harmonic, and pulsating. results experimental research a...

the aim of a multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem (mrcpsp) is to assign resource(s) with the restricted capacity to an execution mode of activities by considering relationship constraints, to achieve pre-determined objective(s). these goals vary with managers or decision makers of any organization who should determine suitable objective(s) considering organization strategi...
