Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The optical response of a single-mode uncoated fiber tip to a 3D polarized field, including longitudinal components, is investigated. The 3D field is produced by an opportune superposition of TE and TM plane waves. The contribution of the different field c ...
Fully-metal-coated near-field optical probes, based on a cantilever design, have been studied theoretically and experimentally. Numerical simulations prove that these structures allow non-zero modal emission of the electromagnetic field trough a 60 nm thic ...
The evolution path of nanotechnologies moves through the domain of microscopy. Among all the kinds of imaging tools available today, optical imaging systems are of primary importance. When using optical imaging systems, we take profit of the information re ...

A study of the optical properties of microfabricated, fully-metal-coated quartz probes collecting longitudinal and transverse optical fields is presented. The measurements are performed by raster scanning the focal plane of an objective, focusing azimuthal ...
In this thesis work we avail ourselves of optical interferometric techniques for the study of the optical properties of nano-structured materials. As a first step, we set up a multiple heterodyne scanning probe optical microscope (MH-SPOM). This apparatus ...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a widely investigated material for its biological compatibility, high dielectric constant and refractive index, chemical and mechanical resistance, and catalytic activity. Several different techniques are available to produce TiO ...
A new concept for a 1 × 2 micromechanical optical switch with 10 μs of switching speed, 29 dB of ON/OFF ratio, and insertion loss of −7.22 dB for λ = 1550 nm and −4.96 dB for λ = 635 nm is presented. The idea is to insert a micromechanical switching mechan ...
Recently there has been a growing amount of attention devoted to tuneable photonic crystals (PhCs) where the optical response of PhC structures can be dynamically modified. We will show how infiltrating planar PhCs with a synthetic organic material allows ...
GLAZING Field of the invention The present invention relates to glazings which, in particular, may be used in solar collectors. In the present text, the term "glazing" means any material, e.g. glass or polycarbonate, transparent to visible electromagnetic ...
Direct measurements of longitudinal (d(33)) and transverse (d(31)) piezoelectric coefficients have been made on cuboid samples of 001-poled 0.955Pb[Zn1/3Nb2/3]O-3-0.045PbTiO(3) (PZN-4.5PT) and 0.68Pb[Mg1/3Nb2/3]O-3-0.32PbTiO(3) (PMN-32PT) single cryst ...
