We demonstrate a method of generating short pulses at 1350 nm by exciting Cerenkov radiation in a higher-order-mode fiber with a 1064 nm femtosecond fiber laser. We measure a 106 fs, 0.66 nJ output pulse. Cerenkov radiation in fibers allows for energy transfer between a soliton and a dispersive wave, providing an effective and engineerable platform to shift the wavelength of a femtosecond source. With appropriate design of the higher-order-mode fiber, this method of generating short pulses at 1350 nm can be extended to other wavelengths and to higher pulse energies.

Femtosecond laser pulses are currently regarded as an emerging and promising tool for processing wide bandgap dielectric materials across a variety of high-end applications, although the associated physical phenomena are not yet fully understood. To address these challenges, we propose an original, fully analytical model combined with Two Temperatures Model (TTM) formalism. The model is applied to describe the interaction of fs laser pulses with a typical dielectric target (e.

This paper presents the development of a vital sign monitoring system designed specifically for professional athletes, with a focus on runners. The system aims to enhance athletic performance and mitigate health risks associated with intense training regimens. It comprises a wearable glove that monitors key physiological parameters such as heart rate, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), body temperature, and gyroscope data used to calculate linear speed, among other relevant metrics.

- Alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC) is a rare disorder linked with neurological and heart issues, particularly the ATP1A3-D801N variant, which causes a shorter QT interval and arrhythmia risks.
- A study at Duke University evaluated heart rate (HR) and QT intervals in individuals with AHC, revealing that those with the variant had less QT prolongation at lower HR compared to healthy controls.
- The findings suggest that individuals with ATP1A3-D801N show abnormal heart rhythms, indicating a need for closer monitoring and intervention for potential heart issues.
