The physics of 3D printing with light

Christophe Moser

The goal of 3D printing is to realize complex 3D structures by locally adding material in small volume elements called voxels - in contrast to successively subtracting material by etching, milling or machining. This field started with optics-based proposal ...

Toward Metantennas: Metamaterial-Based Antennas for Wireless Communications

Yuanyan Su

Antennas have historically been the most common electromagnetic (EM) technology for wireless communication systems. Antenna as hardware is entirely dependent on the EM properties of the materials used, mostly related to the permittivity and permeability. I ...

Modeling of the response function of CdTe detectors for a hard X-ray synthetic diagnostic

Stefano Coda, Joan Decker, Dahye Choi, Seçilcan Uyaniker

The response function of CdTe detectors used in a hard X-ray spectrometer system (HXRS) on the TCV tokamak fusion experiment is modeled based on the measured energy spectra from multiple gamma-ray sources. The response function consists of an asymmetric Ga ...

Nonlinear dynamics of the near-shore boundary layer of a large lake (Lake Geneva)

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, Andrea Cimatoribus

We examine near-shore and pelagic current variability in Lake Geneva, a large and deep lake in western Europe, using observations from several measurement locations and a three-dimensional numerical model for the period 2014-2016. Linear internal seiche mo ...

Novel manufacturing methods for optical antennas : controlling light down to the single nanometer scale

Valentin Flauraud

The resonant excitation of free electrons in metallic nanostructures enables extreme near field intensities along with a deep sub-wavelength localization of the electromagnetic energy. This has been exploited to enhance light-matter interaction down to the ...

Collapse phenomena of deformed cavitation bubbles

Outi Supponen

Cavitation bubbles are a topic of long-standing interest owing to the powerful phenomena associated with their collapse. Their unique ability to focus energy typically causes damage in hydraulic machinery (turbines, pumps, propellers, ...) but, if managed ...

Dynamics of gas phase Ne* + NH3 and Ne* + ND3 Penning ionisation at low temperatures

Andreas Osterwalder, Justinas Jankunas, Benjamin Bertsche

Two isotopic chemical reactions, Ne* + NH_3, and Ne* + ND_3, have been studied at low collision energies by means of a merged beams technique. Partial cross sections have been recorded for the two reactive channels, namely, Ne* + NH_3 → Ne + NH^+_3 + e −, ...
