InAs/InP quantum dot VECSEL emitting at 1.5 mu m

Elyahou Kapon, Alexandru Mereuta, Andrei Caliman, Grigore Suruceanu

A high-power InAs quantum dot (QD) vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser emitting at 1.5 mu m is reported. The active region employs 20 layers of high-density Stranski-Krastanow InAs quantum dots on an InP substrate. The QD density and emission w ...

Slickwater hydraulic fracture propagation: near-tip and radial geometry solutions

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Haseeb Zia

We quantify the importance of turbulent flow on the propagation of hydraulic fractures (HF) accounting for the addition of friction reducing agents to the fracturing fluid (slickwater fluid). The addition in small quantities of a high molecular weight poly ...

Adaptive locomotion of artificial microswimmers

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Fazil Emre Uslu

Bacteria can exploit mechanics to display remarkable plasticity in response to locally changing physical and chemical conditions. Compliant structures play a notable role in their taxis behavior, specifically for navigation inside complex and structured en ...

When droplets deform, break up and propel microswimmers

Giacomo Gallino

This thesis investigates the motion and breakup of droplets in low-Reynolds-number flows, focusing on two aspects. In the first part, we study the breakup of droplets in subcritical flow conditions, when there exists a linearly stable solution for the drop ...

Large-scale coherent flow structures in rough-bed open-channel flow observed in fluctuations of three-dimensional velocity, skin friction and bed pressure

Ulrich Lemmin, Fereshteh Bagherimiyab Hunkeler

The dynamics of large-scale coherent structures (LSCS) are investigated in a rough-bed flow over the whole water column and longitudinal and transverse turbulent fluxes of momentum are compared. The relation between LSCS and fluctuations of skin friction a ...
