  2. Armstrong phase modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armstrong_phase_modulator

    In the Armstrong method, the audio signal and the radio frequency carrier signal are applied to the balanced modulator to generate a double sideband suppressed carrier signal. The phase of this output signal is then shifted 90 degrees with respect to the original carrier. The balanced modulator output can either lead or lag the carrier's phase.

  3. Coherent state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherent_state

    If the uncertainty is minimized, but not necessarily equally balanced between X and P, the state is called a squeezed coherent state. The coherent state's location in the complex plane ( phase space ) is centered at the position and momentum of a classical oscillator of the phase θ and amplitude | α | given by the eigenvalue α (or the same ...

  4. Mach–Zehnder interferometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach–Zehnder_interferometer

    In optical telecommunications it is used as an electro-optic modulator for phase and amplitude modulation of light. Optical computing researchers have proposed using Mach-Zehnder interferometer configurations in optical neural chips for greatly accelerating complex-valued neural network algorithms.

  5. Modulational instability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulational_instability

    In the fields of nonlinear optics and fluid dynamics, modulational instability or sideband instability is a phenomenon whereby deviations from a periodic waveform are reinforced by nonlinearity, leading to the generation of spectral-sidebands and the eventual breakup of the waveform into a train of pulses.

  6. Science fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fair

    A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.

  7. Block design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_design

    A partially balanced incomplete block design with n associate classes (PBIBD(n)) is a block design based on a v-set X with b blocks each of size k and with each element appearing in r blocks, such that there is an association scheme with n classes defined on X where, if elements x and y are ith associates, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, then they are together ...

  8. Coupled mode theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupled_Mode_Theory

    Coupled mode theory first arose in the 1950s in the works of Miller on microwave transmission lines, [1] Pierce on electron beams, [2] and Gould on backward wave oscillators. [3] This put in place the mathematical foundations for the modern formulation expressed by H. A. Haus et al. for optical waveguides.

  9. Soliton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soliton

    This theory, developed by de Broglie in 1927 and revived in the 1950s, is the natural continuation of his ideas developed between 1923 and 1926, which extended the wave–particle duality introduced by Albert Einstein for the light quanta, to all the particles of matter. The observation of accelerating surface gravity water wave soliton using ...
