In this thesis a new approach for single molecule detection and analysis is explored. This approach is based on the combination of two well established methods, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and total internal reflection fluorescence microsco ...
The weak beam technique is now used widely for the determination of stacking fault energies, in particular for intermetallic alloys, and the accuracy of the approach is critically dependent upon the reliability of the relationship between the image and the ...
Synchrotron radiation induced total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) and conventional 45 degrees energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis (EDXRF) using a 150-nm-thick AP1 (TM) film as sample carrier have been exploited for the elemental analysis o ...
A monolithic silicon integrated optical micro-scanner is presented. The device consists of a mirror located an the tip of a thermal bimorph actuator beam. The fabrication process is very simple and compatible with IC fabrication techniques. The device is e ...
In order to improve the reliability of micro-spot welding of metal parts in production such as e.g. in electron guns for TV picture tubes, real-time information about the evolution of the welding process should be available to allow on-line modification of ...
Highly collimated synchrotron sources are the essential ingredient of novel radiology and micro-radiology techniques for materials science. medicine and biology-with contrast based on the refractive index rather than on absorption. We were able to implemen ...

The objective of this paper is to describe an integral approach—based on the use of a super-resolution frequency estimation method—to phase shifting interferometry, starting from phase step estimation to phase evaluation at each point on the object surface ...
Photon migration has been investigated experimentally in vitro on human breast tissues, bovine liver, tissue phantoms, and theoretically by Monte Carlo simulations and diffusion theory. The spatial intensity profiles have been measured at the output surfac ...
