Integrated heterodyne laser Doppler vibrometer based on stress-optic frequency shift in silicon nitride
We demonstrate a compact heterodyne Laser Doppler Vibrometer (LDV) based on the realization of optical frequency shift in the silicon nitride photonic integration ! platform (TriPleX). The system comprises a dual-polarization coherent detector...
Hybrid integration of Polymer PICs and InP optoelectronics for WDM and SDM terabit intra-DC optical interconnects
This paper presents a hybrid photonic integration concept based on the use of a polymer motherboard, InP EML arrays and InP PD arrays to realize WDM and SDM Terabit optical engines operating at 100-Gb/s or even at 20! 0-Gb/s per lane. The optical...
AudioMNIST: Exploring Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Audio Analysis on a Simple Benchmark
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is targeted at understanding how models perform feature selection and derive their classification decisions. This paper explores post-hoc explanations for deep neural networks in the audio domain....
Highly Sensitive Switchable Sensors for Hydroxide on Glass Surfaces Based on Isoquinolinium-Quinolinium-substituted Acetylenes
Bi-substituted acetylenes with a quinolinium and an isoquinolinium substituent are described, which reversibly form intensely colored adducts with O-nucleophiles and thus enable the detection of >0,5 ppm hydroxide on the surfaces of various...
A Performance Comparison of OFDM and Pulsed PHY Modulations in Optical Wireless Communications
Experimental tests of the OFDM and OOK-based PHYs in the Li-Fi standard IEEE 802.15.13-2023 show that the higher peak data rates of OFDM and the longer reach of OOK make them suitable for deployment in down- and uplink use cases, respectively.
Full-Duplex Operation of ISAC: Self-Interference Reduction from the Lens of IRS
This paper addresses the self-interference problem in full duplex operation by leveraging an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) to provide spatial separation of the transmitted and the received (i.e. reflected) signal in a monostatic sensing...
