Photonic Thermometer Module Assembly And Performing Photonic Thermometry

NIST Inventors
Nikolai Klimov , Tobias Herman and Zeeshan Ahmed
A photonic thermometer module assembly includes: a sheath; a sheath bottom plug; a sheath top flange; a top sealing flange; a heat exchanger; a photonic thermometer disposed on the heat exchanger such that the photonic thermometer determines a temperature of the sheath; and an optical fiber array in

Photonic Resonator Analyzer And Characterizing A Photonic Resonator

NIST Inventors
Zeeshan Ahmed
We describe a method for distinguishing optical modes of a resonator based on the characterization of the temperature sensitivity of a mode’s resonance frequency and its dispersion characteristics. This method requires an interrogator (made up of a tunable laser, broadband light source, frequency

PH Photothermal Spectrometer And Performing PH Photothermal Spectroscopy

NIST Inventors
Zeeshan Ahmed
A pH photothermal spectrometer includes a container that receives an analyte medium and pH-sensitive chromophore. An excitation fiber and optical thermometer are disposed in the container. The optical thermometer include a light receiver disposed on a temperature detector fiber.
