Orbital angular momentum modes by twisting of a hollow core antiresonant fiber
Published 2017Generation and use of orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light is finding more and more interest in a wide variety of fields of photonics: communications, optical trapping, quantum optics, and many more [1]. In the investigation ...Open AccessConference paper -
Pulse wave velocity measurement with soft-polymer optical fibers for wearable continuous blood pressure monitoring
Published 2020Soft-polymer fibers allow strong conformal contact with the skin and are extremely sensitive for deformation, despite high propagation loss. This enables pulse wave velocities measurements. Blood pressure can then be ...Open AccessConference paper -
OAM generation, tunable metamaterials and sensors with highly deformable fibers
Published 2018A flexible fiber-drawn material, i.e. polyurethane, allows for novel applications from THz to the visible. We exploit its elastic properties to generate orbital angular momentum modes, to make pressure sensors and to ...Open AccessConference paper -
Multimaterial and Flexible Devices Made by Fiber Drawing
Published 2020The ability to co-process different materials at the same time in a thermal process opens up the possibility of scalable fabrication of volumetric multimaterial and multifunctional devices with operation spanning from the ...Open AccessConference paper -
Predicting the unpredictable: how dynamic COVID-19 policies and restrictions challenge model forecasts
Published 2021Abstract Introduction To retrospectively assess the accuracy of a mathematical modelling study that projected the rate of COVID-19 diagnoses for 72 locations worldwide in 2021, and to identify predictors of model accuracy. ...Preprint
