Radiative characterization of random fibrous media with optically large long cylindrical fibers

Sophia Haussener

Radiative heat transfer is analyzed in participating media consisting of long cylindrical fibers with a diameter in the limit of geometrical optics. The absorption and scattering coefficients and the scattering phase function of the medium are determined b ...

CFSpro: ray tracing for design and optimization of complex fenestration systems using mixed dimensionality approach

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Mario Geiger

Advanced optical ray tracing software, CFSpro, was developed for the study and optimization of complex fenestration systems (CFSs). Using an algorithm mixing 2D and 3D approaches, accurate computation of large numbers of rays in extruded geometries can be ...

Activated Dissociation of HCl on Au(111)

We report zero-coverage reaction probabilities (S-0) for HCl dissociative adsorption on Au(111) obtained by the seeded molecular beam hot-nozzle method. For measurements at normal incidence with mean translational energies ranging from 0.94 to 2.56 eV (noz ...

Maximal absorption regime in random media

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Volodymyr Koman

Efficient optical energy transfer is key to many technologies, ranging from biosensing to photovoltaics. Here, for the first time we show that by introducing a random medium with appropriate filling factor, absorption in a specific volume can be maximized. ...

Transition of optical regime in miniaturized optical systems: light interactions beyond the refraction limit

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We investigate the transition of optical regimes of miniaturized optical systems using two canonical examples, where the refraction of light limits the system performance. A ball-lens and a solid immersion lens (SIL) are considered, whose refractive respon ...

Microstructured glazing for daylighting, glare protection, seasonal thermal control and clear view

André Gabriel Kostro

The appropriate choice of glazing in a facade depends on many factors. They include amongst other criteria: location, orientation, climatic condition, energetic efficiency, usage of the building, required user comfort, and the architectural concept. On the ...

Multilevel Micro-Structuring of Glassy Carbon for Precision Glass Molding of Diffractive Optical Elements

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Karin Prater

A consumer market for diffractive optical elements in glass can only be created if high efficient elements are available at affordable prices. In diffractive optics the efficiency and optical properties increases with the number of levels used, but in the ...

Electroacoustic absorbers for the low-frequency modal equalization of a room: what is the optimal target impedance for maximum modal damping, depending on the total area of absorbers?

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Sami Driss Karkar, Véronique Adam

Electroacoustic absorbers consist of loudspeakers, shunted with an electrical circuit designed to obtain a given acoustic impedance. Their design and principles are now well understood. Unidimensional experiments, using plane waves under normal incidence i ...
