Optical frequency comb based parallel fm lidar

Tobias Kippenberg, Anton Lukashchuk

In a LIDAR device (100) a laser light source (110) generates first laser light having a first laser frequency which is frequency modulated with a first frequency modulation. A non-linear optical element (120) receives the first laser light and generates th ...

Design-to-Fabrication Workflow for Raw-Sawn-Timber using Joinery Solver

Petras Vestartas

Currently, the Swiss timber industry in mountain areas largely exports unprocessed lumber and imports finished timber products due to the lack of digital tools. By using new digital design-to-production workflows, it is possible to investigate new building ...

Additive manufacturing of a precious bulk metallic glass

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Güven Kurtuldu, Antonia Neels, Navid Sohrabi, Annapaola Parrilli

For the first time, a high-density amorphous and crack-free bulk metallic glass (BMG) based on a precious metal (PdCuNiP) was produced via additive manufacturing (AM). Laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) was used for the fabrication of the samples, and led to a ...

Nondestructive characterization of laser powder bed fusion parts with neutron Bragg edge imaging

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Nikola Kalentics, Markus Strobl

Laser powder bed fusion is an efficient technique for additive manufacturing of metallic materials. The quality of the material produced depends on the optimization of a large range of build parameters and the complex thermo-mechanical build process is pro ...

Fusion of Photo with Airborne Laser Scanning

Jan Skaloud, Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Photogrammetry and Laser-Scanning are usually considered as complementary. Integration of these two observation methods has the potential to blend their individual advantages. The resulting benefit is likely to be higher in drone airborne mapping, which pa ...

Microresonator Dual-Comb Coherent FMCW LiDAR

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Maxim Karpov, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Anton Lukashchuk

We introduce a novel architecture for parallel frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) laser ranging (LiDAR). Using dual soliton microcombs, we demonstrate a parallel distance measurement with 24 channels requiring only a single FMCW pump laser and cohe ...

Massively parallel coherent laser ranging using a soliton microcomb

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Maxim Karpov, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Wenle Weng, Anton Lukashchuk

Coherent ranging, also known as frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) laser-based light detection and ranging (lidar)(1) is used for long-range three-dimensional distance and velocimetry in autonomous driving(2,3). FMCW lidar maps distance to frequenc ...

Lidar measurements of yawed-wind-turbine wakes: characterization and validation of analytical models

Fernando Porté Agel, Peter Andreas Brugger, Haohua Zong

Wake measurements of a scanning Doppler lidar mounted on the nacelle of a full-scale wind turbine during a wake-steering experiment were used for the characterization of the wake flow, the evaluation of the wake-steering set-up, and the validation of analy ...

The Pavilions at the Alhambra’s Court of the Lions: Graphic Analysis of Muqarnas

Ignacio Ferrer Perez-Blanco

This research documents and graphically analyzes the pavilions muqarnas at the Court of the Lions in the Alhambra in Granada, a World Heritage Site. In order to cast some light on the understanding and preservation of these 14th century architectural eleme ...

Ultra-Broadband and Omnidirectional Perfect Absorber Based on Copper Nanowire/Carbon Nanotube Hierarchical Structure

Giulia Tagliabue, Fateme Kiani Shahvandi, Theodoros Tsoulos

Zero reflection and complete light absorption are required in a wide range of applications ranging from sensing devices to solar heaters and photoelectrodes. However, simultaneously satisfying the requirements of the broadband spectrum, omnidirectionality, ...
