Patent number: 10838129Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for an ultrathin optical metasurface with an array patterning formed on an optical fiber facet that enables manipulation of light passing therethrough, such as focusing and steering the light, and controlling a polarization state of light. The patterning can be non-uniform to selectively direct light passing through the metasurface. Array structures can vary in size, angle, shapes, and other non-uniform aspects. Further, the array can include materials that can be electrically activated and controlled to variably tune the metasurface characteristics for increased ability to manipulate the light passing therethrough. The materials can include a conductor, a dielectric, or a composite of a conductor, insulator, and dielectric formed on the optical fiber.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2019Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: Baylor UniversityInventors: Ho Wai Howard Lee, Jingyi Yang, Indra Ghimire

Publication number: 20200333297Abstract: Method and system are disclosed for characterizing and quantifying composite laminate structures. The method and system take a composite laminate of unknown ply stack composition and sequence and determine various information about the individual plies, such as ply stack, orientation, microstructure, and type. The method and system can distinguish between weave types that may exhibit similar planar stiffness behaviors, but would produce different failure mechanisms. Individual ply information may then be used to derive the laminate bulk properties from externally provided constitutive properties of the fiber and matrix, including extensional stiffness, bending-extension coupling stiffness, bending stiffness, and the like. The laminate bulk properties may then be used to generate a probabilistic failure envelope for the composite laminate.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2020Publication date: October 22, 2020Applicant: Baylor UniversityInventors: David A.

Publication number: 20200284975Abstract: The present disclosure provides an optical waveguide design of a fiber modified with a thin layer of epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) material. The design results in an excitation of a highly confined waveguide mode in the fiber near the wavelength where permittivity of thin layer approaches zero. Due to the high field confinement within thin layer, the ENZ mode can be characterized by a peak in modal loss of the hybrid waveguide. Results show that such in-fiber excitation of ENZ mode is due to the coupling of the guided fundamental core mode to the thin-film ENZ mode. The phase matching wavelength, where the coupling takes place, varies depending on the refractive index of the constituents. These ENZ nanostructured optical fibers have many potential applications, for example, in ENZ nonlinear and magneto-optics, as in-fiber wavelength-dependent filters, and as subwavelength fluid channel for optical and bio-photonic sensing.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2020Publication date: September 10, 2020Applicant: Baylor UniversityInventors: Ho Wai Howard LEE, Khant MINN, Jingyi YANG, Oleksiy ANOPCHENKO

Patent number: 10761067Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for characterizing and quantifying composite laminate structures, including structures with surfaces that are curved in two and three dimensions.

Patent number: 10698134Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for a tunable ENZ material that can vary the absorption of radiant energy. The tunable ENZ material can act as a broadband absorber advantageously using a stack of ultrathin conducting layers having an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) regime of permittivity at different wavelengths. The conducting materials can include at least partially transparent conducting oxide or transition metal nitride layers with different electron concentrations and hence different ENZ frequencies for a broadband range of energy absorption. The layer(s) can be directly tuned to various frequencies to achieve high levels of absorption at deep subwavelength ENZ thicknesses. An applied electric bias can create electron accumulation/depletion regions in an ENZ semiconductor device and allows control of plasma frequency and hence high levels of absorption in the device. Further, for a stack of layers, the carrier concentration can be altered from layer to layer.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Baylor UniversityInventors: Oleksiy Anopchenko, Ho Wai Howard Lee

Patent number: 10643828Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for mass spectrometry imaging in a multi-stage ionization applying different technologies by decoupling the desorption and ionization events. At a first stage, a primary beam, such as an ion beam, desorbs one or more molecules of a targeted sample, and at a second stage the desorbed molecules are ionized. The system and method can act independent of a matrix application to the target sample for a direct analysis and has the spatial resolution needed to operate in nano-meters resolution for a cell-by-cell analysis, if desired. The first stage desorption applies a first technique that allows neutral molecules of the target sample to become desorbed from the surface without requiring the molecules to be ionized during the desorption. The second stage ionizes the neutral molecules after the desorption in the first stage, when the defined target molecules have been volatilized.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2016Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: Baylor UniversityInventor: Touradj Solouki

Patent number: 10595742Abstract: A system and method for classifying body activities through an on-body antenna measuring changes in reflected power and the resulting reflection coefficients, in contrast to two antenna systems that measure transmission power therebetween. A single on-body antenna can be attached or held in close proximity to the body. The antenna can be calibrated based on changes in the reflection coefficients for various calibration activities for the location at which the antenna is placed on the body. Magnitude changes and patterns of the reflection coefficients at a given frequency for a given activity can be compared with calibrated data to correlate a given activity. Further accuracy can be gained by comparing both magnitude and phase changes and patterns at a given frequency with calibrated data for a given activity. The antenna can use power losses from a transmitted signal to measure the changes in the reflected power to minimize power requirements.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2017Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: Baylor UniversityInventors: Yang Li, Youngwook Kim
