Konijnenberg, A.P. (author), Adam, A.J.L. (author), Urbach, Paul (author)This book treats optics at the level of students in the later stage of their bachelor or the beginning of their master. It is assumed that the student is familiar with Maxwell’s equations. Although the book takes account of the fact that optics is part of electromagnetism, special emphasis is put on the usefulness of approximate models of optics...book 2024

Vilaboa Pérez, Jesús (author), Georges, Marc (author), Hastanin, Juriy (author), Loicq, J.J.D. (author)We describe the state of the development of a coherence scanning interferometer to measure local changes in topology and local induced vibrations of a mirror at cryogenic temperatures. The metrology instrument incorporates an optical phase mask and a microlenses array, enabling the acquisition of complete white light interferograms within a...journal article 2024

Paul, A. (author), Rafigh Doost, J. (author), Dou, X. (author), Pereira, S.F. (author)Nanostructures with steep side wall angles (swa) play a pivotal role in various technological applications. Accurate characterization of these nanostructures is crucial for optimizing their performance. In this study, we propose a far-field detection method based on coherent Fourier scatterometry (CFS) for accurate quantification of steep swa...journal article 2024

(author), Szekely, Gyorgy (author)Membrane modules for seawater desalination are becoming increasingly important for obtaining clean water with the rising global water scarcity. The productivity of membrane modules is compromised by biofouling on the membrane and feed spacer. Biofouling development can be mitigated by modification of the spacer or membrane surface. The...journal article 2024

(author), Manni, Francesca (author), Edström, Erik (author), Terander, Adrian Elmi (author)In brain tumor surgery, maximal tumor resection is typically desired. This is complicated by infiltrative tumor cells which cannot be visually distinguished from healthy brain tissue. Optical methods are an emerging field that can potentially revolutionize brain tumor surgery through intraoperative differentiation between healthy and tumor...review 2024

Mazza, F. (author), Castellanos, Leonardo (author), Klyukin, Dmitry (author), Bohlin, G.A. (author)Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) spectroscopy has been used to provide gas-phase quantitative scalar information (e.g. temperature, density, and species concentrations) for more than 5 decades. This technique is renowned for its ability to realize non-intrusive in-situ measurements in harsh environments with excellent spatial and...book chapter 2024

Dependence and risk spillovers among clean cryptocurrencies prices and media environmental attentionNdubuisi, G.O. (author), Urom, Christian (author)This paper examines the relationships among cryptocurrency environmental attention and clean cryptocurrencies prices using Time-Varying Parameter Vector Auto-Regression (TVP-VAR) and wavelets techniques. Results show strong connectedness among these variables, implying that the prices of clean cryptocurrencies are influenced by attention on...journal article 2023

Conroy, Philip (author), van Diepen, S.A.N. (author), van Leijen, F.J. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)We introduce the term loss-of-lock to describe a specific form of coherence loss that results in the breakage of a synthetic aperture radar interferometric (InSAR) time series. Loss-of-lock creates a specific pattern in the coherence matrix of a multilooked distributed scatterer (DS) by which it may be detected. Along with identification, we...journal article 2023

Rafigh Doost, J. (author), Kolenov, D. (author), Pereira, S.F. (author)It has been a widely growing interest in using silicon carbide (SiC) in high-power electronic devices. Yet, SiC wafers may contain killer defects that could reduce fabrication yield and make the device fall into unexpected failures. To prevent these failures from happening, it is very important to develop inspection tools that can detect,...journal article 2023

Telang, Pankaj R. (author), Singh, Munindar P. (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Social commitments are recognized as an abstraction that enables flexible coordination between autonomous agents. We make these contributions. First, we introduce and formalize a concept of a maintenance commitment, a kind of social commitment characterized by a maintenance condition whose truthhood an agent commits to maintain. This concept...journal article 2023
