Based on a modified Huygens-Fresnel principle valid in the near field, we analytically verify the exponential wave decay of evanescent waves. This field decay along the propagation direction can be considered as the result of interference between elementar ...
The problem of fragmentation prediction is at the origin of various analytical models. Among them, we focus on the ones introducing the idea of obscured zones. They assume that when a crack initiates at a defect, a stress release wave propagates away from ...
When aliquid drop approaches a flat solid surface, the airbeneath it is compressed,flattening the bottom of the drop andforcing initial contact to occur in aring-shape, trapping a pocketof air in its center as two wetting frontsrapidly expand botho ...
The Colladon symposium is a public event that will honor the physicist Jean-Daniel Colladon (1802-1890). He was a scientist born in Geneva and well known for his measurements of the speed of sound in the lake of Geneva, his development of tunnel drilling m ...
Plasmonic dipole antennas are powerful optical devices for many applications since they combine a high field enhancement with outstanding tunability of their resonance frequency. The field enhancement, which is mainly localized inside the nanogap between b ...

Bragg gratings with reflectivity > 93% were fabricated in Bi-Al co-doped H-2-loaded optical fibers. Average index changes as high as +2.5x10(-3) were obtained. Positive core stress changes indicate a compaction contribution to the total index change. ...
We experimentally engineer Nanojets produced by dielectric spheres by varying the illumination and observe the effect with a high-resolution interference microscope (HRIM). Converging and diverging spherical wavefronts and Bessel- Gauss beams are considere ...

The splashing of a droplet when impacting a solid surface is common to our everyday experience as well as to industrial applications that require controlled deposition of liquid mass. Still the mechanism for splashing is not well understood. A recent study ...
The photosensitivity of germanium free Bi-Al-doped silica fibers with different bismuth concentrations was investigated using ArF excimer laser radiation at 193 nm and fiber grating formation. For the fiber with the highest bismuth concentration maximum re ...
