Optical reflectometry has been used to study various concentrations of glucose dissolved in the water. Approach: The self-construction of reflectometer used was of hemi-cylinder aluminum to allow light beam strikes the sample at 70° for sor p-polarization state. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptical Investigation and Electronic Polarizability of Nd3+ Doped Soda-Lime-Silicate GlassesP. Chimalawong, J. Kaewkhao, P. LimsuwanProblem statement: This study researched on different physical and optical properties of Nd3+ doped soda-lime-silicate glass. The glasses containing Nd3+ in (65-x)SiO2: 25Na2O: 10CaO: xNd2O3 (where x = 0.0-5.0 mol%) had been prepared by melt-quenching method. The density and molar volume increase with increasing of Nd2O3 concentration due to increasing of Non Bridging Oxygen (NBOs) in glass matrix. The optical … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Role of Electrical Pulse Shapes in Electrical and Optical Chromatic Dispersion CompensationMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Majid MoghaddasiProblem statement: The performance of the optical network is highly dependent to Chromatic Dispersion (CD). CD has been a big issue when higher bitrate or longer distance is desired. Many methods have been represented to mitigate or eliminate this phenomenon. A wide range of optical and electrical compensation has been investigated. Approach: In this study we evaluate the efficiency of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 25 Oct 2010 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSensorization of Robotic Hand Using Optical Three-Axis Tactile Sensor: Evaluation with Grasping and Twisting MotionsHanafiah Yussof, Jiro Wada, Masahiro OhkaProblem statement: Sensitization of robot hand is still remaining as crucial issue since most of robot hand systems nowadays are only capable to grasp a predefined specific object. It is still difficult for robot hand system to realize human-like tactile sensation. Some common problems in robot hand system are low accuracy sensing device, sensors are not robust enough for long … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,846 accessesView PDFCite
