Resonant Waveguide Gratings for Color-Selective Diffraction

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs), also known as guided mode resonant (GMR) gratings or waveguide-mode resonant gratings, are dielectric structures where these resonant diffractive elements benefit from lateral leaky guided modes and can operate from UV t ...

Monitoring Spontaneous Charge-Density Fluctuations by Single-Molecule Diffraction of Quantum Light

Jérémy Raymond Jean Maurice Rouxel

Homodyne X-ray diffraction signals produced by classical light and classical detectors are given by the modulus square of the charge density in momentum space vertical bar sigma(q)vertical bar(2), missing its phase, which is required in order to invert the ...

Quantification of amorphous siliceous fly ash in hydrated blended cement pastes by X-ray powder diffraction

Karen Scrivener, Ruben Anton Snellings, Xuerun Li

X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD)-based quantitative phase analysis is a common technique for studying the hydration of cementitious systems. Hydrated cements often comprise several amorphous or nanocrystalline phases. This paper presents a protocol for the ...

Contactless optical trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles utilizing SIBA mechanism and EDL force

Mahdi Sahafi

On-chip optical tweezers based on evanescent fields overcome the diffraction limit of the free-space optical tweezers and can be a promising technique for developing lab-on-a-chip devices. While such trapping allows for low-cost and precise manipulation, i ...

Parameter-free image resolution estimation based on decorrelation analysis

Aleksandra Radenovic, Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux, Kristin Stefanie Grussmayer

Super-resolution microscopy opened diverse new avenues of research by overcoming the resolution limit imposed by diffraction. Exploitation of the fluorescent emission of individual fluorophores made it possible to reveal structures beyond the diffraction l ...

Mask-aligner Talbot lithography using a 193 nm CW light source

Wilfried Noell, Toralf Scharf, Raoul Kirner, Andreas Vetter

We present and discuss Talbot mask-aligner lithography, relying on a continuous wave laser emitting at 193nm for the illumination. In this source, a diode laser at 772nm is amplified by a tapered amplifier in master-oscillator power-amplifier configuration ...

On Simple Scattering and Diffraction Models using Point Cloud Maps for Channel Model or Coverage Predictions

Jean-Frédéric Wagen, Karol Jacek Kruzelecki

One of the several challenges for high capacity wireless communications is to find propagation models able to predict as easily and accurately as possible the propagation channel to assess the performance of wide-band wireless systems. An investigation of ...

Feasibility study on a novel daylighting system with embedded micro compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs)

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Jing Gong

A novel glazing system consisting of a polymer layer with embedded micro compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs), which is attached to a glass pane of glazing, is proposed. It aims to reduce the energy consumption due to cooling in buildings, provide dayli ...

Light fields behind microstructures: study of the Babinet-principle in the Fresnel regime

Hans Peter Herzig, Myun Sik Kim, Toralf Scharf, Krishnaparvathy Puthankovilakam

The Babinet’s principle is a general theorem that holds for electromagnetic waves and is often applied to diffraction of light. Diffraction pattern of a body and that of the complement body are compared and the sum of both radiation patterns must be the sa ...

Advanced optical components for mid-infrared applications

Grégoire Maxime Smolik

The mid-infrared wavelength range, defined from 2.5 um to 25 um is of a high scientific and technological interest. One of its main application field is in spectroscopy, since these wavelengths coincidewith the fundamental rotational-vibrational modes of m ...
