Abstract This paper describes an experimental technique to evaluate the stress distribution around an automotive windscreen ‘chip’, which is created by projectile impact. This stress distribution is measured before and after a typical resin injection repair procedure, and the results indicate a significant reduction i…

To avoid the commonly required regrowth steps in conventional distributed feedback laser fabrication, laterally-coupled distributed feedback (LC-DFB) lasers lithographically pattern the grating out of the ridge waveguide. Using higher order gratings increases the lithographic tolerances, resulting in lasers that are m…
