Article Abstract

We present a novel, to the best of our knowledge, white light interferometric fiber-optic gyroscope (IFOG) scheme using a fiber-optic rhombic optical path difference (OPD) bias structure to interrogate with a sensing coil to realize rotation rate measurement without a phase modulator. The OPD bias structure composed of four (2×1) 3 dB single-mode fiber couplers was constructed to implement non-reciprocal OPD bias. White light interferometric demodulation was utilized to acquire the change in OPD due to the Sagnac-phase shift. Absolute linear output can be obtained. We produced the principle prototype of rhombic OPD bias white light IFOG without utilizing a phase modulator. An experimental demonstration of the IFOG prototype system achieves linear output with respect to the OPD difference in detecting rotation rate.

Land use and cover changes lead to fragmentation of the natural habitats of sand flies and modify the epidemiological profile of leishmaniasis. This process contributes to the infestation of adjacent rural settlements by vector sand fly species with different degrees of adaptation, promoting leishmaniasis outbreaks. This study aimed to assess land use and cover changes over a 12-year period and investigate the diversity and abundance of sand fly assemblages in the rural area of Codó, Maranhão State, Brazil.

Halide perovskites are used to fabricate energy-efficient optoelectronic devices. Determining which compositions yield desired chromatic responses is challenging, especially when doping strategies are used. Here, we report a way of mapping the compositional space of halide perovskites to generate a light emission or "chromaticity" palette.

Dentistry still faces difficulties in diagnosing oral precancer and cancer, especially when it comes to early phase changes or disease detection, evaluation, and treatment. In essence, oral lumenography is the process of identifying oral lesions using a chemiluminescent light source and a toluidine blue labeling system. Since neoplastic epithelial cells have a changed nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio, acetic acid dehydration brings out this nuclear density and gives the tissue an "acetowhite" look.

Low indoor light in urban housing can disrupt health and wellbeing, especially in older adults who experience reduced light sensitivity and sleep/circadian disruptions with natural aging. While controlled studies suggest that enhancing indoor lighting may alleviate the negative effects of reduced light sensitivity, evidence for this to be effective in the real world is lacking. This study investigates the effects of two light conditions on actigraphic rest-activity rhythms and subjective sleep in healthy older adults (≥ 60 years) living at home.
