van der Waals Materials for Overcoming Fundamental Limitations in Photonic Integrated Circuitry

With the advance of on-chip nanophotonics, there is a high demand for high-refractive-index and low-loss materials. Currently, this technology is dominated by silicon, but van der Waals (vdW) materials with a high refractive index can offer a very advanced ...

Overview of the MOSAiC expedition—Atmosphere

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Radiance Flore Aurore Calmer, Michael Lonardi, Hélène Paule Angot, Markus Frey, Thomas Krumpen

With the Arctic rapidly changing, the needs to observe, understand, and model the changes are essential. To support these needs, an annual cycle of observations of atmospheric properties, processes, and interactions were made while drifting with the sea ic ...

Effects of multiple scattering on angle-independent structural color in disordered colloidal materials

Sofia Magkiriadou

Disordered packings of colloidal spheres show angle-independent structural color when the particles are on the scale of the wavelength of visible light. Previous work has shown that the positions of the peaks in the reflectance spectra can be predicted acc ...

Spatial and Morphological Control of Cyanine Dye Thin Films

Nicolas Alexandre Serge Leclaire

Cyanine dyes are organic semiconductor compounds with light absorption and emission properties useful for emerging technologies such as solar cells and light-emitting devices. The characteristics of these materials in the solid state depend on their organi ...

Validation of Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 algorithms for atmospheric correction on Lake Geneva

Sonia Joëlle Dupuis

Remote-sensing of water surfaces such as large lakes is a useful tool for monitoring and understanding large-scale processes. Suspended particles in lakes can have various sources such as autochthonously produced organic matter, urban or agricultural runof ...

Experimental verification of the method for producing a three-dimensional cross-pairs metamaterial structure based on a dielectric AlN cube

Przemyslaw Andrzej Gorski

This paper presents a method of manufacturing 3D metamaterial structures using laser radiation. Our proposed material, aluminum nitride (AlN), by interaction of a high-energy laser beam undergoes a direct metallization process, a result of which a conducti ...

Airborne hyperspectral sensor radiometric self-calibration using near-infrared properties of deep water and vegetation

Bertrand Merminod, Vincent Maurice Nouchi, Kevin Sylvain Barbieux

Retrieving the water-leaving reflectance from airborne hyperspectral data implies to deal with three steps. Firstly, the radiance recorded by an airborne sensor comes from several sources: the real radiance of the object, the atmospheric scattering, sky an ...

A new smoothness based strategy for semi-supervised atmospheric correction: application to the Léman-Baïkal campaign

Bertrand Merminod, Manuel Simon Paul Cubero-Castan, Yosef Akhtman, Dragos Constantin, Vincent Maurice Nouchi, Kevin Sylvain Barbieux

The estimation of reflectance from hyperspectral data, a process called atmospheric correction, is a critical first step. Most of the methods need measurements of ground reflectances or atmosphere. When no information is available, unsupervised methods as ...

Extreme Ultraviolet Transient Grating Measurement of Insulator-Metal Transition Dynamics in VO2

Jakob Grilj

We demonstrate spectrally resolved transient grating (TG) spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) near the M-edge of vanadium dioxide. Time-dependent and broadband EUV-TG measurements separate the index of refraction change due to the insulator to me ...
