Hair replacement in the guinea‐pig and in man

TL;DR: In the human scalp, post-partum hair loss may be an effect of hormones circulating during pregnancy and their subsequent withdrawal, and in the guinea-pig, topically applied oestradiol has been shown to prevent regrowth of hair on denuded, patches.
Book ChapterDOI

Applications of low coherence interferometry to dynamic oil film thickness measurement

TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for measuring the thickness of dynamic thin oil films in a bearing simulator rig is presented and the resolution achieved is ~1μm over a 500μm range.
Journal ArticleDOI

High temperature Fabry-Perot probe interrogated with tunable fibre ring laser

TL;DR: In this paper, a high temperature fiber-optic based probe is described based on a miniature Fabry-Perot with a maximum operating temperature of ~700degC limited by the gold coated fibre transceiver link connecting the optical source to the probe.

Control: Application to Faraday Rotation

TL;DR: In this paper, an all-fiber-optic system for the control and modulation of the azimuth of a linearly polarized beam is described, which is basically that of a Mach-Zehnder interfer- ometer but with the birefringence of the two fiber arms controlled to produce orthogonal circular states of polarization which recombine in the final directional coupler.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vibration immunity for a triangular faraday current sensor

TL;DR: In this paper, a common-mode rejection scheme for a bulk-optic triangular Faraday current sensor that can eliminate optical noise induced by fiber-link vibration was demonstrated, and the noise floor before applying common rejection was about 30 dB for a 100A Faraday signal and transceiver vibration levels of approximately 30 g.
