As a novel electromagnetic imaging technique that combined the feature of microwave imaging and ultrasound imaging, microwave-induced thermoacoustic tomography (MITAT) has seen a rapid growth in numerous biomedical applications during the past decades. For the application in transcranial brain hemorrhage detection, the major challenge of MITAT is the big acoustic inhomogeneity induced by the ...

Waveguide array is one of the fundamental building blocks for integrated photonics, a branch of study that examines the ability of integrated devices on a single chip to achieve faster and more efficient transmission and processing of information. A dense waveguide array could enable a high-density integration of waveguide components and significantly reduce on-chip occupancy area and cost. This c...
