Validation of short-pulse reflectometry turbulence measurements with a synthetic diagnostic

Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Oleg Krutkin, Umesh Kumar, Mackenzie Peter-Fulford Van Rossem, Samuele Mazzi

Experimental measurements of the turbulence amplitude utilizing a short pulse reflectometry method are presented. Two discharges with shaped plasma possessing opposite signs of triangularity are considered and a higher turbulence amplitude is found in the ...

Circularly Polarized Transmitarray Antenna for CubeSat Intersatellite Links in K-Band

Anja Skrivervik, Miroslav Veljovic

A circularly polarized transmitarray antenna based on aperture-coupled patches is presented for CubeSat intersatellite-link applications in K-band. The concept of aperture coupling simplifies the design of transmitarray elements, as it omits the need for m ...

Binary zero-order diffractive and anti-reflective optical elements in silicon for the mid-infrared

Hans Peter Herzig, Grégoire Maxime Smolik

We propose a novel method for the design of binary 2-level diffractive optical elements that provide an efficient diffractive function while reducing the reflectivity of a high-index interface. The structure can be fabricated with a single patterning step ...

Digital holographic reflectometry

Christian Depeursinge, Tristan Colomb, Jonas Kühn, Nicolas Pavillon, Ahmet Ata Akatay

Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) is an interferometric technique that allows real-time imaging of the entire complex optical wavefront (amplitude and phase) reflected by or transmitted through a sample. To our knowledge, only the quantitative phase is ...
