Electric lighting is responsible for a significant fraction of electricity consumption within non-residential buildings. Making daylight more available in office and commercial buildings can lead as a consequence to important electricity savings, as well a ...
The “Green Lighting” research project, initiated at the Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory (LESO-PB) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), is aiming at an energy efficient integration of advanced daylighting and electri ...
Lanthanide ions possess fascinating optical properties and their discovery, first industrial uses and present high technological applications are largely governed by their interaction with light. Lighting devices (economical luminescent lamps, light emitti ...
We propose a self-commissioning, user-adaptive blinds and electric lighting controller for small office rooms. Self-commissioning, in this context, means that the controller builds an internal representation of the room, in particular of the room's dayligh ...
The photogoniometer is composed of a computer-controlled movable mechanical support, presenting two main rotation axes that are powered by DC motors. It uses an accurate and reliable gear technology (harmonic drivers) and is controlled by a micro-computer. ...
La protection de l’environnement fait aujourd’hui partie des préoccupations majeures de notre société ; dans ce contexte, la nécessité de réduire la consommation énergétique dans le bâtiment se place comme une priorité. Dans le domaine de l’éclairage, et p ...
Progress in photodynamic therapy (PDT) depends on the development of: (1) photosensitizers, (2) optical devices among which are lasers and light delivery systems, and (3) clinical procedure. The light delivery systems which are the focus of this article ar ...
Automated shading systems have the potential to exploit daylight in buildings to save energy of artificial lighting and cooling loads and improve occupants'f visual comfort. This paper investigates the daylighting performance of automated Venetian blinds b ...
Reasonable consistency between experimental data for the ambipolar diffusion length and experimental data for the photoconductivity is demonstrated for steady-state measurements performed on a-Si:H layers. This consistency is obtained based on the ''standa ...
