This paper presents and verifies the mathematical model of an electric field senor based on the whispering gallery mode (WGM). The sensing element is a dielectric microsphere, where the light is used to tune the optical modes of the microsphere. The light undergoes total internal reflection along the circumference of the sphere; then it experiences optical resonance. The WGM are monitored as sharp dips on the transmission spectrum. These modes are very sensitive to morphology changes of the sphere, such that, for every minute change in the sphere’s morphology, a shift in the transmission spectrum will happen and that is known as WGM shifts. Due to the electrostriction effect, the applied electric field will induce forces acting on the surface of the dielectric sphere. In turn, these forces will deform the sphere causing shifts in its WGM spectrum. The applied electric field can be obtained by calculating these shifts. Navier’s equation for linear elasticity is used to model the deformation of the sphere to find the WGM shift. The finite element numerical studies are performed to verify the introduced model and to study the behavior of the sensor at different values of microspheres’ Young’s modulus and dielectric constant. Furthermore, the sensitivity and resolution of the developed WGM electric filed sensor model will be presented in this paper.

AbstractAn electrically tunable whispering gallery mode (WGM) microresonator based on an HF-etched microstructured optical fiber (MOF) infiltrated with dual-frequency liquid crystals (DFLCs) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for the investigation of the crossover frequency and Freedericksz transition of DFLCs. Experimental results indicate that for applied electric field with operation frequency below the crossover frequency, WGM resonance wavelength decreases with the increment of applied electric field strength. On the contrary, for applied electric field with operation frequency beyond the crossover frequency, WGM resonance dips show red shift as the applied electric field intensity increases. The proposed electrically tunable microcavity integrated with DFLCs is anticipated to find potential applications in optical filtering, all-optical switching, and electrically manipulated bi-directional micro-optics devices.

A mathematical model describing the interaction of cancer cells with the urokinase plasminogen activation system is represented by a system of partial differential equations, in which cancer cell dynamics accounts for diffusion, chemotaxis, and haptotaxis contributions. The mutual relations between nerve fibers and tumors have been recently investigated, in particular, the role of nerves in the development of tumors, as well neurogenesis induced by cancer cells. Such mechanisms are mediated by neurotransmitters released by neurons as a consequence of electrical stimuli flowing along the nerves, and therefore electric fields can be present inside biological tissues, in particular, inside tumors. Considering cancer cells as negatively charged particles immersed in the correct biological environment and subjected to an external electric field, the effect of the latter on cancer cell dynamics is still unknown. Here, we implement a mathematical model that accounts for the interaction of cancer cells with the urokinase plasminogen activation system subjected to a uniform applied electric field, simulating the first stage of cancer cell dynamics in a three-dimensional axial symmetric domain. The obtained numerical results predict that cancer cells can be moved along a preferred direction by an applied electric field, suggesting new and interesting strategies in cancer therapy.

We report a quasi-semicircle GaN ultraviolet microcavity laser. Poincaré map of the quasi-semicircle cavity shows periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic optical trajectories. Finite-element-method optical near-field distribution patterns of the periodic optical modes agree with the optical loops in the quasi-semicircle cavity. Based on the numerical results, optically pumped lasing experiment shows that ultraviolet multimode lasing action from different optical resonance modes can be effectively stimulated at low pumping intensity in the quasi-semicircle GaN cavity, and the side-mode suppression phenomenon can be obtained at high pumping intensity. Because the possible period optical loops are quasi-periodic and unstable, the quasi-whispering-gallery mode lasing with higher quality factor prefer to dominate the lasing action under high pumping. The experimental and simulated lasing modes suggest that side-mode suppression phenomenon can be caused by the mode competition between quasi-whispering-gallery modes and other quasi-periodic modes.

In considering of the triangle cantilever beam can improve the problem of stress concentration in rectangular cantilever beam, the piezoelectric power generating mathematical model of triangle cantilever piezoelectric vibrator is build base on piezoelectric equation and material mechanics. The effect of structure size on the electricity generating capacity is simulated with numerical The result shows that the applied electric field have less effect on the output voltage, and the substrate thickness and length of cantilever beam have bigger influence on the output voltage.

Starting with one-cavity side-coupled with waveguide system, we theoretically study on transmission spectrum for a two-cavity side-coupled with waveguide system based on coupled mode theory by using light-tracing method. Interesting effects called all-optical analog to EIT appear in some cases. 3D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method provides optical modes distributions at different wavelengths, including the EIT-like wavelength. Influences of different parameters on the narrow EIT-like peak such as cavity quality factors Q, frequency difference detuning Δω, and phase difference detuning between cavities ΔΦ are discussed. Compared with previous studies, this method is easier to understand and can be used as a model for both standing cavities like line-defect photonic crystal cavities and whispering gallery modes cavities like microring cavities.

Model was developed for the prediction of polarization characteristics in a dielectric material exhibiting piezoelectricity and electrostriction based on mathematical equations and MATLAB computer simulation software. The model was developed based on equations of polarization and piezoelectric constitutive law and the functional coefficient of Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) crystal material used was 2.3×10-6 m (thickness), the model further allows the input of basic material and calculation of parameters of applied voltage levels, applied stress, pressure, dielectric material properties and so on, to generate the polarization curve, strain curve and the expected deformation change in the material length charts. The mathematical model revealed that an application of 5 volts across the terminals of a 2.3×10-6 m thick dielectric material (PZT) predicted a 1.95×10-9 m change in length of the material, which indicates piezoelectric properties. Both polarization and electric field curve as well as strain and voltage curve were also generated and the result revealed a linear proportionality of the compared parameters, indicating a resultant increase in the electric field yields higher polarization of the dielectric materials atmosphere.
