  • Patent number: 12292287
    Abstract: An improved fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG) is proposed for enhancing the optical measurement sensitivity through the application of a heterodyne effect. The improved FOG is characterized by the use of a dual-injection polarization-maintaining 3×3 directional coupler which is configured to receive a pair of source light beams that are injected thereinto in a bi-directional manner. The forward-injected light beam is used to be split into a pair of interrogating beams for use by a coiled optical fiber to implement the detection and measurement of the Sagnac effect due to a rotational movement. On the other hand, the backward-injected light beam is used to be mixed with the paired interrogating beams that have passed through and returned from the coiled optical fiber to thereby provide a heterodyne effect that can boost the differential optical power amplitude of the paired interrogating beams, thereby enhancing the optical measurement sensitivity of the FOG application.

  • Publication number: 20250134446
    Abstract: A device is provided to excite and locate methylene blue two-photon fluorescence (MB-2 PF) signals under skin surface. The device comprises a laser source, a nonlinear optical microscope unit, a beam-splitter unit, an optical-signal capturing and observing unit, and an image processing unit. Second harmonic generation (SHG) signals and the MB-2 PF signals are combined and observed simultaneously to form images of nerve fiber structures at different depths under the surface of human skin. The MB-2 PF signals directly observe the nerve fiber structure under the skin surface. The SHG signals reflects the signals of collagen fibers in dermal layer of the skin. The junction between the dermal layer and the epidermal layer are located to divide the dermis and epidermis layers for determining whether the nerve fiber structure passes through the epidermis and dermis layers. Thus, the density of intraepidermal nerve fiber is calculated in a non-invasive way.
