Flyback Echo-Planar Imaging (EPI) Pulse Sequence with Embedded Chemical-Shift and Field Inhomogeneity Compensation Schemes and Artifact-Free Image Reconstruction Procedures
This technology produces echo-planar imaging (EPI) MRI data free from typical EPI artifact (e.g., Nyquist artifact; chemical-shift artifact; geometric distortion) via two interrelated components. The first is a new algorithm that is used to acquire flyback echo-planar imaging (EPI) data, in which chemical-shift artifact and magnetic field inhomogeneity...

Adaptive Profile Poling of Nanophotonic Lithium Niobate Waveguides for High Overall Nonlinear Efficiency
Innovators at the University of Arizona have overcome the non-uniformity issue of thin-film Lithium Niobate. Adaptive profile poling is promising to realize high nonlinear efficiency with strong material second-order nonlinearity. Nonlinear efficiency can actually increase quadratically with length using this method.
It was shown that the optical momentum...
