We investigate the Gouy phase anomaly of light in the focus of refractive plano-convex microlens arrays by using longitudinal-differential (LD) interferometry and a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation. We put emphasis on determining the amount ...
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 ...
A new finite element method for the efficient discretization of elliptic homogenization problems is proposed. These problems, characterized by data varying over a wide range of scales cannot be easily solved by classical numerical methods that need mesh re ...
Nanoscale photonic systems involve a broad variety of light-matter interaction regimes beyond the diffraction limit and have opened the path for a variety of application opportunities in sensing, solid-state lighting, light harvesting, and optical signal p ...
We present the fabrication of a microlens array which can be integrated into a microfluidic device. In the demonstrated technique, a microwell array is firstly fabricated in a Parylene-C layer by a standard cleanroom process. Afterwards, the optically tran ...
Seen through the ‘frankly eutopian’ lens of Patrick Geddes’ regional survey methods – encompassing both his pragmatic involvement with existing cities and his regional ambitions – this essay considers several practical interpretations of the term ‘genius’ ...
Surface plasmons are able to generate extremely strong and confined optical fields at a deep-subwavelength scale, far beyond the diffraction limit, and now play a central role in nanosciences. A proper combination of plasmonic nanostructures can support Fa ...
It is important to consider the microstructure of a material when studying the macroscopic mechanical properties. Although special equipments have been used for micromechanics study through experimental tests, it is limited by instruments and reproducibili ...
Adaptive optics is used to abate aberrations with a wavefront correction. It is widely used in astronomy and is starting to expand into applications of laser focusing and imaging with high numerical apertures, e.g. microscopy. The physical background of fo ...
The four ITER Electron Cyclotron Upper Launchers (UL) are designed to control Magneto-Hydrodynamic instabilities with the deposition of Electron Cyclotron power. According to the present design, each launcher comprises two rows of four input waveguides, wh ...
