Radio-frequency reflectometry of nanodevices requires careful separation of signal quadratures to distinguish dissipative and dispersive contributions to the device impedance. A tunable phase shifter for this purpose is described and characterized. The phase shifter, consisting of a varactor-loaded transmission line, has the necessary tuning range combined with acceptable insertion loss across a frequency band 100 MHz - 1 GHz spanning most radio-frequency experiments. Its operation is demonstrated by demodulating separately the signals due to resistance and capacitance changes in a model device.

A wide-band current preamplifier based on a composite operational amplifier is proposed. It has been shown that the bandwidth of the preamplifier can be significantly increased by enhancing the effective open-loop gain of the composite preamplifier. The described preamplifier with current gain 10$^7$ V/A showed the bandwidth of about 100 kHz with 1 nF input shunt capacitance. The current noise of the amplifier was measured to be about 46 fA/$sqrt{rm Hz}$ at 1 kHz, close to the design noise minimum. The voltage noise was found to be about 2.9 nV/$sqrt{rm Hz}$ at 1 kHz, which is in a good agreement with the value expected for the operational amplifier used in the input stage. By analysing the total noise produced by the preamplifier we found the optimal frequency range suitable for the fast lock-in measurements to be from 1 kHz to 2 kHz. To get the same signal-to-noise ratio, the reported preamplifier requires roughly 10% of the integration time used in measurements made with a conventional preamplifier.
Microwave reflectometry is a non-intrusive plasma diagnostic tool which is widely applied in many fusion devices. In 2014, the microwave reflectometry on Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) had been upgraded to measure plasma density profile and fluctuation, which covered the frequency range of Q-band (32-56 GHz), V-band (47-76 GHz) and W-band (71-110 GHz). This paper presented a dedicated data acquisition and control system (DAQC) to meet the measurement requirements of high accuracy and temporal resolution. The DAQC consisted of two control modules, which integrated arbitrary waveform generation block (AWG) and trigger processing block (TP), and two data acquisition modules (DAQ) that was implemented base on the PXIe platform from National Instruments (NI). All the performance parameters had satisfied the requirements of reflectometry. The actual performance will be further examined in the experiments of EAST in 2014.

A resonant two level atom doped in one dimensional waveguide behaves as a mirror, but this single-atom mirror can only reflect single photon perfectly at a specific frequency. For a one dimensional coupled-resonator waveguide, we propose to extend th e perfect reflection region from a specific frequency to a wide band by placing many atoms individually in the resonators in a finite coordinate region of the waveguide. Such a doped resonator array promises us to control the propagation of a practical photon wave packet with certain momentum distribution instead of a single photon, which is ideally represented by a plane wave with specific momentum. The studies based on the discrete-coordinate scattering theory display that such hybrid structure indeed provides a near-perfect reflection for single photon in a wide band. We also calculated photon group velocity distribution, which shows that the perfect reflection with wide band exactly corresponds to the stopping light region.
We present Doppler-corrected position and velocity measurement with a fiber-coupled COFDR system based on the FMCW radar principle for high precision localization applications. A high measurement accuracy and the ability to track targets are demonstrated.
The digital signal processing has greatly simplified the process of phase noise measurements, especially in oscillators, but its applications are largely confined to the frequencies below 400 MHz. We propose a novel transpose frequency technique, whi ch extends the frequency range of digital noise measurements to the microwave domain and beyond. We discuss two basic variations of the proposed noise measurement technique, one of which enables characterization of phase fluctuations added to the passing signal by the particular microwave component, for example by an amplifier, while another one is intended for measurements of phase fluctuations of the incoming signal itself.
