    Professsor Ali Adibi from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering presented a lecture at the Nano@Tech Meeting on March 11, 2008 at 12 noon in room 102 of the MiRC buildingRuntime: 60:36 minutesThe development of ultra-compact and sensitive sensing structures with minimal sample requirement for accurate sensing have been of great recent interest for multiple applications including bio and environmental sensing, chemical agent detection, and bio- threat detection. With recent advancement in the development of design and fabrication tools for photonic nanostructures, integrated photonic platforms are a strong candidate for the development of such sensing structures. In this talk, Prof. Ali Adibi first presented the requirements for the development of photonic lab-on-a-chip sensing structures. Then he explained how these requirements are met by two recent developments in our group in the area of silicon photonics, i.e., ultra-high Q micro-resonators, and ultra-compact photonic crystal on-chip spectrometers with orders of magnitude smaller size compared to the other implementations with the same performance. These spectrometers are enabled by dispersion engineering in photonic crystal to simultaneously achieve the superprism effect, negative diffraction, and negative refraction. Details of the design of such structures along with their experimental demonstrations will be presented

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Analytical Approach in Autofrettaged Spherical Pressure Vessels Considering the Bauschinger Effect

    No full text
    This paper presents an analytical study of spherical autofrettage-treated pressure vessels, considering the Bauschinger effect. A general analytical solution for stress and strain distributions is proposed for both loading and unloading phases. Different material models incorporating the Bauschinger effect depending on the loading phase are considered in the present study. Some practical analytical expressions in explicit form are proposed for a bilinear material model and the modified Ramberg-Osgood mode

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Proceedings of SPIE: Wavelength-resolved Purcell enhancement of PbS/CdS quantum dots measured on a chip-based platform

    No full text
    Future quantum optical networks will require an integrated solution to multiplex suitable sources and detectors on a low-loss platform. Here we combined superconducting single-photon detectors with colloidal PbS/CdS quantum dots (QDs) and low-loss silicon nitride passive photonic components to show their combined operation at cryogenic temperatures. Using a planar concave grating spectrometer, we performed wavelength-resolved measurements of the photoluminescence decay of QDs, which were deterministically placed in the gap of plasmonic antennas, in order to improve their emission rate. We observed a Purcell enhancement matching the antenna simulations, with a concurrent increase of the count rate on the superconducting detectors.ImPhys/Optic
