All-fiber short-wavelength tunable mode-locked fiber laser using normal dispersion thulium-doped fiber by Chen, Shaoxiang, Chen, Yuhao, Liu, Kun, Sidharthan, Raghuraman, Li, Huizi, Chang, Chen Jian, Wang, Qi Jie, Tang, Dingyuan, Yoo, Seongwoo

“…By changing the bending diameter of the fiber, we demonstrated a tunable mode-locked Tm-doped fiber laser with a very wide tunable range of 152 nm spanning from 1740 nm to 1892 nm. Pulses at a central wavelength of 1755 nm were able to be amplified in an all-fiber configuration using the W-type NDTDF, without the use of any artificial short-pass filter or pulse stretcher. …”

Imaging sodium dendrite growth in all‐solid‐state sodium batteries using 23Na T2‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging by Rees, GJ, Spencer Jolly, D, Ning, Z, Marrow, T, Pavlovskaya, GE, Bruce, P

“…A spalling dendritic morphology is observed and confirmed by more conventional post‐mortem analysis; X‐ray tomography and scanning electron microscopy. A significantly larger 23Na T2 for the dendritic growth, compared with the bulk metal electrode, is attributed to increased sodium ion mobility in the dendrite. 23Na T2‐contrast MRI of metallic sodium offers a clear, routine method for observing and isolating microstructural growths and can supplement the current suite of techniques utilised to analyse dendritic growth in all‐solid‐state cells.…”
