Revisiting parallel catadioptric goniophotometers

Marilyne Andersen, Boris Clément Karamata

A thorough knowledge of the angular distribution of light scattered by an illuminated surface under different angles is essential in numerous industrial and research applications. Traditionally, the angular distribution of a reflected or transmitted light ...

The digital design paradox

Russell Alexander Loveridge

The emergence of computation in design is an ongoing evolution, rather than a technological revolution. Contemporary digital tools have influenced the image of architecture, as object, as shelter, and as icon – but digital design has yet to change our unde ...

Spin-to-orbital angular momentum conversion in semiconductor microcavities

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, François Morier-Genoud, Timothy Chi Hin Liew, Konstantinos Lagoudakis, Taofiq Paraïso, Roland Cerna, Francesco Manni

We experimentally demonstrate a technique for the generation of optical beams carrying orbital angular momentum using a planar semiconductor microcavity. Despite being isotropic systems with no structural gyrotropy, semiconductor microcavities, because of ...

Coherent oscillations between polariton vortex and anti-vortex states in an elliptical resonator

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Gaël Nardin, François Morier-Genoud, Barbara Pietka

In this experimental work, we optically excite the eigenmodes of an elliptical resonator in a semiconductor micro-cavity. Using a pulsed excitation, we create a superposition of eigenmodes, and image the time evolution of the coherent emission pattern. Osc ...

A Tectonic Approach for Integrating Kinesis with a Building in the Design Process of Interactive Skins

Jeffrey Huang

Today, interactive architecture plays an increasingly important role in urban milieus. However, in terms of design principles and guidelines in the age of digital architecture, the design and construction of interactive skins has been under-explored. A new ...

If you need to design ultra-high precision devices for mechanisms with multiple axes there are not a lot of ways leading around flexure-based joints. Using this type of articulations totally eliminates backlash and friction and is, by this, providing an ac ...

The presence of giant cloud condensation nuclei (GCCN) within stratocumulus clouds can help the formation of drizzle by acting as collector drops. We propose that the presence of film-forming compounds (FFCs) on GCCN may decrease their growth enough to cea ...

Kinetic limitations on cloud droplet formation and impact oncloud albedo

Athanasios Nenes

Under certain conditions mass transfer limitations on the growth of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) may have a significant impact on the number of droplets that can form in a cloud. The assumption that particles remain in equilibrium until activated may th ...

We use infrared-visible double resonance overtone excitation to prepare HOCl molecules in single, well-characterized rotational levels of high OH stretching states just above the dissociation threshold on the ground potential energy surface. Combined with ...
