Laser-based manufacturing of freeform glass micro-optics through topological transformation

Samuel Youcef Benketaf

Glass has been the material of choice for making optical elements, in large part due to its intrinsic properties: a temperature-dependent viscosity, which enables shaping the material into a broad variety of functional and artistic glassware. Silica glass ...

Thermally reconfigurable metalens

Giulia Tagliabue, Fateme Kiani Shahvandi, Anna Archetti, Theodoros Tsoulos, Nathanaël Restori, Ren-Jie Lin

Reconfigurable metalenses are compact optical components composed by arrays of meta-atoms that offer unique opportunities for advanced optical systems, from microscopy to augmented reality platforms. Although poorly explored in the context of reconfigurabl ...

Analytical and Machine Learning Methods for the Complete Safe Coordination of Astrobot Swarms

Matin Macktoobian

The recent generations of massive spectroscopic surveys aim at the ray collection from a multitude of cosmological targets in the course of observations. For this purpose, astrobots are used to change the configuration of optical fibers from one observatio ...

Camera Calibration Models and Methods for Corridor Mapping with UAVs

Jan Skaloud, Davide Antonio Cucci, Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Camera calibration refers to the modeling of the relationship between the coordinates of object points and their projections on the image plane. This is usually done by parametric models that describe the physical properties of the lens systems and camera ...

DeepFocus: a Few-shot Microscope Slide Auto-Focus using a Sample Invariant CNN-based Sharpness Function

Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Adrian Shajkofci

Autofocus (AF) methods are extensively used in biomicroscopy, for example to acquire timelapses, where the imaged objects tend to drift out of focus. AF algorithms determine an optimal distance by which to move the sample back into the focal plane. Current ...

Thermal influences on macroscale rock damage

Fracture processes in rock have widespread implications in the geohazard, geomorphologic, and civil and mining engineering communities. Propagation of fractures reduces overall rock mass strength, can lead to large-scale gravitational instabilities, and ca ...

In this work we study the evolution of the photonic nanojet (PNJ) phenomenon as the ratio of the sphere's diameter over the illumination wavelength changes, for microspheres with diameters from 2 mu m to 100 mu m. We measure the focal point position by usi ...
