This paper presents the new 2D electrostatic particle-in-cell code FENNECS de- veloped to study the formation of magnetized non-neutral plasmas in geometries with azimuthal symmetry. This code has been developed in the domain of gy- rotron electron gun des ...

Modern manufacturing engineering is based on a ``design-through-analysis'' workflow. According to this paradigm, a prototype is first designed with Computer-aided-design (CAD) software and then finalized by simulating its physical behavior, which usually i ...

An accurate solution of the wave equation at a fluid-solid interface requires a correct implementation of the boundary condition. Boundary conditions at acousto-elastic interface require continuity of the normal component of particle velocity and traction, ...

Leveraging wafer-level manufacturing process limitations to increase large scale fused silica microlens array uniformity

Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Raoul Kirner, Jeremy Béguelin

The wafer-level production of Fused Silica microlens arrays is limited by systematic process non-uniformities. The common molten resist-reflow process with subsequent dry-etching allows for manufacturing of microlens arrays on 200 mm wafers. A thorough pro ...

Scaling effect and its impact on wavelength-scale microlenses

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We revisit the scaling laws in micro-optical systems to highlight new phenomena arising beyond a conventional optical regime, especially when the size of the system approaches to the operational wavelength. Our goal is to visualize the impact of the scalin ...

Refraction limit of miniaturized optical systems: a ball-lens example

Hans Peter Herzig, Roland Andreas Bitterli, Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Myun Sik Kim

We study experimentally and theoretically the electromagnetic field in amplitude and phase behind ball-lenses across a wide range of diameters, ranging from a millimeter scale down to a micrometer. Based on the observation, we study the transition between ...

We investigate the transition of optical regimes of miniaturized optical systems using two canonical examples, where the refraction of light limits the system performance. A ball-lens and a solid immersion lens (SIL) are considered, whose refractive respon ...
