TLDR
In this paper, a novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) chemical sensor was designed where the cladding structure is made of a steering wheel-shaped large non-circular airhole.Abstract:
In this paper, we design a novel photonic crystal fiber (PCF) chemical sensor wherein the cladding structure is made of a steering-wheel (SW)-shaped large non-circular air-hole. In this PCF, we int...read more

Nanoparticle-enabled terahertz imaging for cancer diagnosis.
TL;DR: The principle of the nanoparticle-contrast-agent-enabled terahertz imaging (CATHI) technique is demonstrated, which yields a dramatic sensitivity of the differential signal from cancer cells with nanoparticles, which can be as good as a few microns and THz endoscopy becomes more feasible.
