Efficient room-temperature laser operation was obtained in the wavelength range from 2117 nm to 2134 nm with Ho:Lu(2)O(3) and Ho:Y(2)O(3) as the active materials. With an FBG-stabilized Tm-doped fiber laser as the pump source, the maximum slope efficiency and output power of the Ho:Y(2)O(3) laser were 63% and 18.8 W, respectively. With Ho:Lu(2)O(3) the respective values were 76% and 25.2 W. With Ho:Sc(2)O(3) as the active material the accessible wavelength range could be expanded to 2158 nm in a diode-pumped setup.

A method using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) was developed and validated to quantify the innovative tool LightSpot®-FL-1, a selective permeability-glycoprotein (P-gp)-targeted fluorescent conjugate used to measure P-gp expression in cell samples. Quantifying P-gp is a major challenge in oncology as its overexpression in many cancer cells results in Multidrug Resistance (MDR) associated with chemotherapy failure. To develop the method reported herein, both sample preparation and analysis parameters were investigated.

This research proposes an all-metal metamaterial-based absorber with a novel geometry capable of refractive index sensing in the terahertz (THz) range. The structure consists of four concentric diamond-shaped gold resonators on the top of a gold metal plate; the resonators increase in height by 2 µm moving from the outer to the inner resonators, making the design distinctive. This novel configuration has played a very significant role in achieving multiple ultra-narrow resonant absorption peaks that produce very high sensitivity when employed as a refractive index sensor.

Single-Photon Avalanche Photodiodes (SPADs) are increasingly utilized in high-temperature-operated, high-performance Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems as well as in ultra-low-temperature-operated quantum science applications due to their high photon sensitivity and timing resolution. Consequently, the jitter value of SPADs at different temperatures plays a crucial role in LiDAR systems and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) applications. However, limited studies have been conducted on this topic.

In situ X-ray reciprocal space mapping was performed during the interval heating and cooling of InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) grown via metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). Our detailed in situ X-ray analysis enabled us to track changes in the peak intensities and radial and angular broadenings of the reflection. By simulating the radial diffraction profiles recorded during the thermal cycle treatment, we demonstrate the presence of indium concentration distributions (ICDs) in the different QWs of the heterostructure (1.

In this study, TiO-P25 films on FTO substrates were synthesized using the sol-gel process and studied using Variable Angle Spectroscopy Ellipsometry (VASE) to determine their optical constants and thickness. The measurements were carried out at room temperature in the wavelength range of (300-900) nm at incident angles varying from 55° to 70°. The resulting thicknesses were found to be around 1000 nm.
