Daylight affects human thermal perception

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

Understanding the factors that affect human thermal responses is necessary to properly design and operate low-energy buildings. It has been suggested that factors not related to the thermal environment can affect thermal responses of occupants, but these f ...

Influence of indoor temperature and daylight illuminance on visual perception

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

This paper details the results of an experimental study investigating the combined effect of indoor temperature (19 ℃, 23 ℃ and 27 ℃) and horizontal illuminances (∼140 lx, ∼610 lx and ∼1440 lx) on visual perception, with daylight as the only source of ligh ...

High power ultraviolet LED illumination systems: coherence properties and applications in photolithography

Johana Bernasconi

Mask-aligner photolithography is a technology used to replicate patterns from a mask to a photosensitive substrate. It is widely used in the fabrication of MEMS and micro-optical components, and for other applications with dimensions in the micrometer rang ...

High power modular LED-based illumination system for lithography applications

Hans Peter Herzig, Marcel Groccia, Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Raoul Kirner, Johana Bernasconi

Mask-aligner lithography is a technology used to transfer patterns with critical dimensions in the micrometer range from below 1 micron for contact printing to a dozen of microns in proximity printing. This technology is widely used in the fabrication of M ...

On the integration of Non-Image-Forming effects of light on venetian blinds and electric lighting control

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Laurent Deschamps, Ali Motamed, Marta Benedetti

Light induces important “Non-Image-Forming” (NIF) effects on human physiology and behavior, such as improvement of alertness, cognitive performance and mood. Considering these effects in office lighting can improve well-being and productivity of the occupa ...

On-site monitoring and subjective comfort assessment of a sun shadings and electric lighting controller based on novel High Dynamic Range vision sensors

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Laurent Deschamps, Ali Motamed

Electric lighting is responsible of about one fifth of the electricity demand of buildings in Switzerland. Therein, integrated control of sun shadings and artificial lighting can mitigate the electricity demand while maintaining the user comfort and perfor ...

Integrated Daylighting and Artificial Lighting Control based on High Dynamic Range Vision Sensors

Ali Motamed

One fifth of the electricity consumption of Swiss buildings is due to electric lighting. Integrated control of sun shading and artificial lighting can mitigate this demand while maintaining user comfort. However, the drawback of existing building control a ...

Swiss school typologies from a daylighting perspective between 1945 and 2015

Jean-Denis Bernard Marie Ghislain Thiry

The research consists of three successive and interdependent parts. The 1st part seeks to reconstruct the typological evolution of primary schools and their associated daylighting strategies between 1945 and 2015 in Switzerland – a country widely recognize ...

Biocompatible Amphiphilic Hydrogel–Solid Dimer Particles as Colloidal Surfactants

Esther Amstad, Jing Fan

Emulsions of two immiscible liquids can slowly coalesce over time when stabilized by surfactant molecules. Pickering emulsions stabilized by colloidal particles can be much more stable. Here, we fabricate biocompatible amphiphilic dimer particles using a h ...

Nanoporous silicon tubes: the role of geometry in nanostructure formation and application to light emitting diodes

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Heidi Andrea Potts, Luca Francaviglia, Jelena Vukajlovic Plestina, Francesca Amaduzzi

Obtaining light emission from silicon has been the holy grail of optoelectronics over the last few decades. One of the most common methods for obtaining light emission from silicon is to reduce it to a nanoscale structure, for example by producing porous s ...
