Abstract

A novel simple fiber sensor to sense liquid level is presented. The operation principle is based on the relative Fresnel reflective intensity. The sensor consists of a fiber splitter with the configuration of one input to multiple fiber outputs, i.e. 1×4, 1×8 and 1×12 arrangements that act as a discrete liquid level. A broadband source (BBS) is used as the light source supply. The total reflected power intensity is measured using a power meter. Experimental results show that the power intensity decreases as the level of liquid is increased. The sensor has a simple configuration, low cost, and it can be customized for a wide height measurement range spanning from a few centimeters up to a hundred meters.

Abstract

In this paper, a low-cost fiber optic displacement sensor (FODS) using a bundle of plastic optical fiber (POF) as a probe is developed and presented. The sensor consists of a high power light emitting diode (LED) as light source, a probe with multiple receiving plastic optical fiber and a photodiode detector. The sensor is characterized at millimeter distance and the sensor output is analyzed from 0 mm to 13 mm displacement. The sensitivity of the sensor is found to be 5.38 mV/mm over 2.6 mm sensing range. The sensor is very useful for close distance target since it is highly sensitive at the front slope. The low development cost, high degree of sensitivity and simplicity of the design make it suitable for wide range of industrial applications.

Abstract

A graphene-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite saturable absorption is demonstrated at 2000 nm region. Graphene suspension is produced using low-cost electrochemical exfoliation process. The suspension is mixed with PVA host polymer in 1:1 ratio and left evaporated at room temperature which finally produced graphene-PVA thin film. Thulium doped fiber (TDF) gain medium has been shown to produce a stable Q-switched pulse with a highest repetition rate of 54 kHz, a short pulse duration of 2.89 µs, a maximum peak power of 16 mW, and an estimated maximum pulse energy of 49 nJ. Apparently, at 2000 nm region, superior performances of graphene-PVA composite have been recorded which was largely contributed by meticulous composite preparation and homogenous mixture with PVA host.

Abstract

Wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductor devices such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) enable higher switching frequencies, greater efficiency, and increased power density, but their fast-switching transients and steep dv/dt and di/dt characteristics generate substantially elevated electromagnetic interference (EMI). This review synthesizes peer-reviewed studies to quantitatively compare EMI mitigation outcomes across source-side modulation, gate-driving, filtering, packaging, and AI-based techniques for WBG converters. Packaging-integrated common-mode screens cut CM current by up to 26 dB while raising partial-discharge inception voltage by 53%. Chaotic PWM with passive filtering reaches up to 50 dB attenuation with a 74% reduction in inductor volume. AI-based closed-loop adaptation attains up to 19.2 dB average attenuation with 98.5% CISPR 25 compliance, while RL-based filters reach 25-30 dB across wide frequency ranges. Active gate-driving reduces peak EMI by 19-39 dB. No single technique simultaneously delivers the highest suppression, efficiency, and lowest cost. Hybrid Si/WBG design currently offers the most balanced trade-off. These outcomes are consolidated into a taxonomy of propagation mechanisms, mitigation techniques, application-specific strategies across five domains, and open gaps in standardized testing and validation. These findings provide a practical, quantitative reference for engineers designing next-generation, EMC-compliant WBG power electronic systems.
