A compact 128 Gbit/s DP-QPSK modulator module including driver ICs and polarization multiplexing micro-optics is demonstrated. A dissipation power of only 3.2 W was achieved with a low differential driver output voltage of 2.5 Vpp.
One of the challenges of using bioactive bone cements is adjusting their handling properties for clinical application. To resolve the poorer handling properties of bioactive bone cements we developed a novel bioactive bone cement containing a unique polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) powder, termed SPD-PMMA (40μm in diameter), composed of cohered minute particles of PMMA (0.5μm). The present study aimed...
In this study, we developed three types of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)‐based composite cement with low contents of nonsilanized titania particles (5, 10, and 20 wt % TiO2, respectively: designated T5, T10, and T20). The osteoconductivity, mechanical properties, and handling characteristics of these cements were compared with those of commercially available PMMA cement (PMMAc). The cement was inserted...
This is the first report on electrostatic discharge (ESD)-induced degradation of AlGaInAs/InP buried heterostructure laser diodes. We found that the dominant degradation mechanism was melting of the active layer due to light absorption. We successfully improved ESD tolerance by facet passivation. The cumulative degradation ratio at 1.0 kV ESD tests was decreased from 40 to 0%.
We for the first time fabricated an electroabsorption modulated laser (EML) with a GalnNAs multiple quantum well (MQW) active layer using the butt-joint regrowth technique. Single longitudinal mode operation with side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) of more than 45 dB up to 120degC and the extinction ratio of more than 15 dB up to 100degC were obtained. The 2.5-Gb/s uncooled operation from 25degC to...
First successful operation of a buried-ridge-type GaInNAs-DFB laser was realized. Under CW condition, it oscillated with a threshold current of 18 mA at 25degC, and it could oscillate up to 110degC with good I-L linearity and with SMSR > 40 dB.
Recombinant human calcitonin (rh-CT) has been developed as an agent for patients with excessive bone resorption to replace calcitonins from animal species, which are associated with tolerance problems. In this study, inhibitory effects of rh-CT against bone resorption were examined in thyroparathyroidectomized (TPTX) rats, the animal model of accelerated bone resorption induced by administrating a...
The system performance of a Pr-doped fluoride fibre amplifier was examined for multichannel AM-VSB video signal transmission for the first time. For a CNR of 51 dB, a loss budget of 15.1 dB was obtained with the amplifier, and for a CNR of 46 dB, the loss budget was expanded to 20.1 dB.<<ETX>>
