We present an experimental technique to characterize back-scattering in silicon microring resonators, together with a simple analytical model that reproduces the experimental results. The model can extract all the key ...

A systematic study of noise barriers based on sonic crystals made of cylinders that use recycled materials like absorbing component is reported here. The barriers consist of only three rows of perforated metal shells filled ...
We present an experimental and theoretical characterization of single cigar-shaped nanopores with pH-responsive carboxylic acid and lysine chains functionalized on the pore surface. The nanopore characterization includes ...
Theoretical results on sound transmission through plates perforated with compound periodic hole arrays are presented. Calculations are obtained by means of a model under the rigid-solid assumption, which is thoroughly ...
