We present a fringe projection system to measure glowing hot hybrid components in between production processes. For this a high power green light projector, based on TI DLP technology, is used to create the highest possible ...

Stacks of hydrogen-lean aluminum oxide, deposited via plasma-assisted atomic-layer-deposition, and hydrogen-rich plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited silicon nitride (SiNx) are applied to boron-doped float-zone silicon ...

This article reports about nanocomposites, which refractive index is tuned by adding TiO2 nanoparticles. We compare in situ/ex situ preparation of nanocomposites. Preparation procedure is described, properties of nanocomposites ...

Here we use multipole decomposition approach to study optical properties of a silicon nanocylinder in different lossless media. We show that resonant peaks of multipole moments experience red shift, smoothing and broadening. ...

Advances in photomedicine and optogenetics have defined the problem of efficient light delivery in vivo. Recently, hydrogels have been proposed as alternatives to glass or polymer fibers. These materials provide remarkable ...

In the manufacturing process of Tailored Forming components, the inline inspection of the joining zone directly after each single process step can yield advantages - such as early error detection and real-time process ...

Based on the z-scan method, an interferometric set-up for measuring the optical Kerr-effect was engineered and optimized. Utilizing a Mach-Zehnder configuration, the wave front deformation caused by the Kerr induced ...

We measure and discuss the complex refractive index of conventional ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and an EVA with enhanced UV-transmission based on spectroscopic ellipsometry, transmission and reflection measurements over ...

We evaluate the optical performance of PV modules with respect to an increase in short circuit current density. Our evaluation is based on the combination of ray tracing simulations and measurements on test modules with ...

Straight and bent self-written waveguides (SWWs) are formed within a photomonomer mixture by means of a self-trapping effect when a single laser beam or two laser beams with tilt are propagated inside. These SWWs can be ...
