Fiber-optic sensor reads strain through electrical signals, skipping optical analyzers
Scientists have demonstrated a new fiber-optic sensing method that detects strain and displacement by reading interference patterns directly in the electrical spectrum of a photodetected signal. The ...
I am always on the lookout for ideas for simple test and measurement instruments that can be used on my workbench. Over the years, I have built dozens of little test instruments and home lab ...
Aging degradation and seismic damage of civil infrastructure pose a serious problem for society. One promising technology for monitoring the condition of structures is optical fiber sensing. By ...
Carbon nanotube: these structures have been used to create a new and flexible light sensor. (Courtesy: iStock/theasis) A flexible, ultrathin optical sensor that uses carbon nanotubes to convert light ...
[POSTECH-ETRI joint research team develops a real-time humidity sensing optical sensor.] [The response time of the new sensor is 10,000 times faster than the conventional sensors and can be ...
