Article Use of Laser-Induced Bubbles in Intraocular Pressure Measurement: A Preliminary Study(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2018-11-23) Altindis, Fatih; Ozdur, Ibrahim T.; Mutlu, Sait N.; Yilmaz, BulentThis work investigates the feasibility of a novel approach for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) by analyzing micron-level laser-induced bubble characteristics in the intraocular fluid. We believe that this concept may be used as a non-invasive alternative for measuring a patient's IOP by analyzing the laser-induced bubble volume in the intraocular fluid in the anterior chamber of the eye. The behavior of laser-induced bubbles was examined under differing fluid pressure levels and at differing laser pulse energy levels. An intraocular medium-like environment was imitated and an imaging system was designed in order to capture laser-induced bubbles with their movements. The video recordings of the bubbles were processed using custom software, and the volume of the bubbles was estimated using three different approaches. The bubble volumes were estimated more accurately by using the rising velocity of the bubble rather than its direct radii appearances on the images. An inversely proportional relationship was observed between the laser-induced bubble volume and the fluid pressure. IOP can be measured with a non-invasive technique using laser-induced bubble volume. Deeper and detailed studies, including clinical studies, may lead to the use of lasers for measuring IOP.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Performance Improvements of Photonic Lantern Based Coherent Receivers(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014-12) Ozdur, Ibrahim T.; Toliver, Paul; Woodward, Ted K.In this work, the signal-to-noise ratio improvement of photonic lantern-based coherent receivers over single-mode coherent receivers is demonstrated. The signal-to-noise ratio is improved by a factor of 2.8 when other parameters kept constant. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 50Citation - Scopus: 63Optical Detection of Microplastics in Water(Springer Heidelberg, 2021-01-19) Iri, Ahmet H.; Shahrah, Malek H. A.; Ali, Ali M.; Qadri, Sayed A.; Erdem, Talha; Ozdur, Ibrahim T.; Icoz, KutayUnfortunately, the plastic pollution increases at an exponential rate and drastically endangers the marine ecosystem. According to World Health Organization (WHO), microplastics in drinking water have become a concern and may be a risk to human health. One of the major efforts to fight against this problem is developing easy-to-use, low-cost, portable microplastic detection systems. To address this issue, here, we present our prototype device based on an optical system that can help detect the microplastics in water. This system that costs less than $370 is essentially a low-cost Raman spectrometer. It includes a collimated laser (5 mW), a sample holder, a notch filter, a diffraction grating, and a CCD sensor all integrated in a 3D printed case. Our experiments show that our system is capable of detecting microplastics in water having a concentration less than 0.015% w/v. We believe that the designed portable device can find a widespread use all over the world to monitor the microplastic content in an easier and cost-effective manner.
