The Height of Chitinous Ridges Alone Produces the Entire Structural Color Palette

The colorful wings of butterflies result from the interaction between light and the intricate chitinous nanostructures on butterflies’ scales. This study demonstrates that just by reproducing the chitinous ridges present in butterfly scales (i.e., without ...

Microfluidics of binary liquid mixtures with temperature-dependent miscibility

Esther Amstad, Stefan Guldin

Liquid-liquid microfluidic systems rely on the intricate control over the fluid properties of either miscible or immiscible mixtures. Herein, we report on the use of partially miscible binary liquid mixtures that lend their microfluidic properties from a h ...

Inactivation kinetics and mechanisms of viral and bacterial pathogen surrogates during urine nitrification

Tamar Kohn, Ariane Schertenleib, Kai Udert

This paper assesses the inactivation performance and mechanisms in urine nitrification reactors using bacteria and bacteriophages as surrogates for human pathogens. Two parallel continuous-flow moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs) were operated over a two-m ...

Robust image reconstruction from multi-view measurements

Pierre Vandergheynst, Gilles Puy

We propose a novel method to accurately reconstruct a set of images representing a single scene from few linear multi-view measurements. Each observed image is modeled as the sum of a background image and a foreground one. The background image is common to ...
