Determination of Coherency and Rigidity Temperatures in Al-Cu Alloys Using In Situ Neutron Diffraction During Casting

Jean-Marie Drezet, Bastien Gilbert Pierre Mireux

The rigidity temperature of a solidifying alloy is the temperature at which the solid phase is sufficiently coalesced to transmit tensile stress. It is a major input parameter in numerical modeling of solidification processes as it defines the point at whi ...

On Micro Optical Elements for Efficient Light Diffusion

Roland Andreas Bitterli

Efficient light management is one of the key issues in modern energy conversion systems, be it to collect optical power or to redistribute light generated by high power light emitters. This thesis touches mainly on the subject of efficient light redistribu ...

Phase Anomalies in Micro-Optics

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We present a comprehensive review on the latest research activities that explore the Gouy phase and indicate the recent experimental progresses for its observations in studies that rely on a longitudinal-differential interferometer. The latter is a far-fie ...

Talbot images of wavelength-scale amplitude gratings

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

By means of experiment and simulation, we achieve unprecedented insights into the formation of Talbot images to be observed in transmission for light diffracted at wavelength-scale amplitude gratings. Emphasis is put on disclosing the impact and the interp ...

Plasticization of polylactide foams for tissue engineering

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, John Christopher Plummer, Matthieu Cuénoud

Supercritical CO2 foaming of amorphous and semicrystalline polylactides plasticized by blending with 20 wt% polyethylene glycol has been investigated as a means of producing low-stiffness bioresorbable scaffolds for tissue engineering. For a given set of f ...

Fourier optics analysis of grating sensors with tilt errors

Muhammed Fatih Toy, Onur Ferhanoglu

Dynamic diffraction gratings can be microfabricated with precision and offer extremely sensitive displacement measurements and light intensity modulation. The effect of pure translation of the moving part of the grating on diffracted order intensities is w ...

High-resolution hard-x-ray microscopy using second-order zone-plate diffraction

Giorgio Margaritondo

Odd-order diffraction of zone plates (ZPs) is already used for x-ray microscopy but the potential offered by even-order diffraction must still be fully exploited. Width differences between lines and interline spaces transfer intensity from odd-order to eve ...

Opportunities in microstructured photonics

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Tristan Sfez

The progress in novel light sources, detectors, materials and technology enable new opportunities and challenges for diffractive optics and nanoscale photonics. Important are also analysis tools, such as near-field imaging (SNOM). Only structures that can ...

Mechanical spectroscopy in carbon nanotube reinforced ABS

Daniele Mari, Robert Schaller

Mechanical spectroscopy has been used to qualify possible improvements of the mechanical properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene-carbon nanotubes (ABS-CNTs) composites. The properties of ABS matrix are first investigated. Two relaxations that mark th ...

Advanced passive micro-optical elements

Micro-optical elements are optical elements having size or details in the range of the micrometer scale. The emergency of such elements is strongly linked to the development made in the fabrication techniques during the nineties to follow the still actual ...
