We have numerically demonstrated an efficient mode multiplexer which can tailor the input field patterns by using a phase controller and a mode coupler formed by four single-mode fibers (SMFs). By connecting the mode multiplexer to a multimode fiber (MMF), two orthogonal higher-order modes of the MMF can be simultaneously excited to form two communication channels. The simulated results show that very low modal interference between the two excited modes can be achieved by using the proposed mode multiplexer. We have also discussed the effect of the distance and size of the SMFs in the mode coupler on the performance of the proposed mode multiplexer.

An innovative biosorbent-based water remediation unit could reduce the demand for freshwater while protecting the surface and groundwater sources by using saline water resources, such as brine, brackish water, and seawater for irrigation. Herein, for the first time, we introduce a simple, rapid, and cost-effective iron(III)-tannate biosorbent-based technology, which functions as a stand-alone fixed-bed filter system for the treatment of salinity, heavy-metal contaminants, and pathogens present in a variety of water resources. Our approach presents a streamlined, cost-efficient, energy-saving, and sustainable avenue for water treatment, distinct from current adsorption desalination or conventional membrane techniques supplemented with chemical and UV treatments for disinfection.

() is one of the most prevalent threats, capable of inducing diverse illnesses and presenting a serious threat to public health. Herein, we demonstrate a novel dual-mode colorimetric/fluorescence biosensor based on the xponential mplification reaction and trand isplacement eactions (EASDR), which has multiplexing capability that significantly promotes the anchoring and trapping of Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) and fluorescent dyes for sensitive detection of (). The method works by targeting specific bacteria with aptamers and promoting repeated EASDR to affect the immobilization of Pt NPs and fluorescent dyes in the orifice plate, which could produce changes in fluorescence and colorimetric signals.

Since the modal decomposition is carried out optically, this approach is able to obtain the modal content at speeds up to the GHz level. In order to demonstrate such performance, we have applied this approach to the modal analysis of a -switched pulse generated in a multimode fiber with alternating intra-pulse mode content.

A pair of in-house developed PLs is spliced into the cavity in a back-to-back structure. This PL-based structure functions as a mode multiplexer/demultiplexer to generate higher-order spatial modes.

The scheme utilizes DM-OFDM-IM, where subcarriers within each subblock are divided into two groups, each modulated by distinct signal constellations. DM-OFDM-IM leverages the sequential information from the modulated constellation to transmit extra information, leading to a substantial enhancement in spectral efficiency.
