Hybridization of single-walled carbon nanotubes with plasmonic metamaterials leads to photonic media with an exceptionally strong ultrafast nonlinearity. This behavior is underpinned by strong coupling of the nanotube excitonic response to the weakly radiating Fano-type resonant plasmonic modes that can be tailored by metamaterial design.

Jones matrix computation is one of the widely used methods in nonlinearitycalculation in laser interferometers. In this paper, the nonlinearity error in developedthree-longitudinal mode heterodyne interferometer (DTLMI) has been mathematicallymodeled at various speeds, by using Jones matrix calculations. This review has been donedespite the fact that simultaneously the main factors including no...

We investigate the propagation of short, intense laser pulses in arrays of coupled silica waveguides, in the anomalous dispersion regime. The nonlinearity induces trapping of the pulse in a single waveguide, over a wide range of input parameters. A sharp transition is observed for single waveguide excitation, from strong diffraction at low powers to strong localization at high powers.

In this note, small amplitude free vibration of a double-beam system in presence of inner layer nonlinearity is investigated. The nonlinearity is due to inner layer material and is not related to large amplitude vibration. At first, frequencies of a double-beam system with linear inner layer are studied and categorized as synchronous and asynchronous frequencies. It is revealed that the inner l...

Integral nonlinearity (INL) should be main source of ADC's harmonic distortion. The basic question is importance of dynamic INL. There are still open questions how to describe dynamic INL and if the dynamic corrections of ADC have sense. Key-Words: ADC, testing, static, dynamic, INL, hysteresis

Measurement of integral non-linearity (INL) and differential non-linearity (DNL) of an A/D converter using the histogram method incurs large test time. This test time can be a significant percentage of the total test time, especially for high resolution and low sampling-speed A/D converters. This paper describes a test methodology for measuring the INL and DNL specifications of A/D converters b...
