Apodization of the fibre Bragg gratings by use of phase mask UV exposition
Burian, Tomáš ; Hejátková, Edita (referee) ; Urban, František (advisor)
This thesis describes the problem of fiber gratings, focusing primarily on the use of Bragg's grids in the sensor. It describes the types of fiber mesh production, especially the method of writing with a phase mask. The next part deals with the possibilities of using apodization in fiber optic systems. It deals with the various functions that can be used to describe apodization. The following part describes the moire principle, especially the method of overlapping two phase masks with a different period.

Susceptibility weighted magnetic resonance imaging (SWI)
Bačovský, Jaromír ; Bartušek, Karel (referee) ; Starčuk, Zenon (advisor)
Susceptibility weighted magnetic resonance imaging (SWI) seems to be a very promising method usable in the diagnosis of a number of clinical and biomedical applications. Difusse axonal injuries and neurodegenerative diseases to name a few. The goal of my bachelor's thesis was to study the principal methods of magnetic resonance imaging with particular emphasis on susceptibility weighted imaging. Then use this theoretical knowledge for practical implementation of the SWI method to 4,7T/200mm NMR system located at Institute of Scientific Instruments of the ASCR, v.v.i. It was necessary to create an image calculated software, which is capable of enhancing contrast caused by magnetic susceptibility differences as they manifest themselves in local phase changes between tissues. Few basic problems had to be solved. The phase image was filtered by a high pass filter, a Phase Mask was created from adjusted image, which is generated from phase unwrapped image. To varify the SWI method, samples were designed, which have the desired magnetic properties. During the initial phase of experimenting, hen's eggs were used and then citrus fruits with nanoiron, CaCl2, Zn and AgCl. We investigated basic parametres and settings of the MRI measurements that affect final susceptibility weighted image.
