Quasi-Phase-Matched Supercontinuum Generation in Photonic Waveguides

February 1, 2018
Author(s)
Daniel D. Hickstein, Grace Kerber, David R. Carlson, Lin Chang, Daron A. Westly, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Abijith S. Kowligy, John Bowers, Scott A. Diddams, Scott B. Papp
Supercontinuum generation in on-chip waveguides is a versatile source of broadband light and the generated spectrum is determined by the phase-matching conditions. Here we show that quasi- phase-matching via periodic modulations of the waveguide structure

Vanadium Transitions in the Spectrum of Arcturus

February 1, 2018
Author(s)
Michael P. Wood, Chris Sneden, James E. Lawler, E. A. Den Hartog, John J. Cowan, Gillian Nave
We derive a new abundance for vanadium in the bright, mildly metal-poor red giant Arcturus. This star has an excellent high-resolution spectral atlas and well-understood atmospheric parameters, and it displays a rich set of neutral vanadium lines that are

Web Microanalysis of Big Image Data

February 1, 2018
Author(s)
Peter Bajcsy, Joe Chalfoun, Mylene H. Simon
This book looks at the increasing interest in running microscopy processing algorithms on big image data by presenting the theoretical and architectural underpinnings of a web image processing pipeline (WIPP). Software-based methods and infrastructure

A Minimum Set of Common Principles for Enabling Smart City Interoperability

January 31, 2018
Author(s)
Angelo Frascela, Arianna Brutti, Nicola Gessa, Piero De Sabbata, Cristiano Novelli, Martin Burns, Vatsal Bhatt, Raffaelle Ianniello, Linghao He
The current investments for smart infrastructure development in cities result in the proliferation of self-consistent and closed applications (often called "silos"), which provide services with strong vertical integration but without ease of mutual

Educating Next-Gen Computer Scientists

January 31, 2018
Author(s)
Jeff Voas, D. Richard Kuhn, Celia Paulsen, Kim B. Schaffer
Just as yeast, flour, water, and salt are to bread, algorithms, data structures, operating systems, database design, compiler design, and programming languages were computer science (CS) education's core ingredients in past years. Then, universities led

High-throughput first principles search for new ferroelectrics

January 31, 2018
Author(s)
Kevin F. Garrity
We use a combination of symmetry analysis and high-throughput density functional theory calculations to search for new ferroelectric materials. We use two search strategies to identify candidate materials. In the first strategy, we start with non-polar
