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.
Two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PhCs) at near-infrared wavelengths are promising candidates for novel integrated optics applications. The main focus being on 'all PhC' monolithically integrated optical circuits. Because of well established fabricat ...
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 ...
Using surface micromachining technology, we fabricated nanofluidic devices with channels down to 10̂nm deep, 200̂nm wide and up to 8̂cm long. We demonstrated that different materials, such as silicon nitride, polysilicon and silicon dioxide, combined with ...
In this paper, we present the design, simulation, fabrication, and some measurement and characterization of a novel 16-bit digital variable optical attenuator (VOA) that attenuates by switching individual mirror of an array as an attempt to achieve input v ...
This paper presents a novel technological and design study of optical guided- wave MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) switch. We work on a concept of hermetic assembly in which a MEMS wafer is covered (top-down) by a crossing optical waveguide wafer. Th ...
Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) Technology is recentlyaddressed to be a key approach among advanced packaging technologies, offering many advantages over its competitors. One of its most attractivefeatures is the ease of 3-D structuration thanks to ...
Micro- and nano-optical structures offer the possibility to control light on a wavelength scale. This allows further miniaturization of integrated optical circuits. Planar photonic crystal waveguides and microcavities are considered basic building blocks f ...
In this paper, planar waveguides produced by He-ion implantation have been demonstrated in undoped and Yb-doped KY(WO4)2 crystals. The effective refractive indices of guided modes in surface planar waveguides were measured by dark m-line spectroscopy and t ...
We report waveguide-enhanced X-ray experiments on thin macromolecular films, such as spin-coated polymer films, self-assembled polyelectrolyte layers, and lipid membranes, prepared on solid surfaces. Upon the deposition of an additional thin inorganic (met ...
In recent years, optical gas detectors based on a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer has become more and more important for monitoring trace gases in atmospheric, medical, and industrial processes. In the medical field, blood gases, essentially pO ...
