Hou, D. (author), Han, B. (author), Chen, W. (author), Liang, H. (author), Su, Q. (author), Dorenbos, P. (author), Huang, Y. (author), Gao, Z. (author), Tao, Y. (author)A series of Ce3+ doped ?-Sr2?2xCexNaxP2O7 phosphor compounds has been prepared using a high-temperature solid-state reaction technique. The luminescence properties under vacuum ultraviolet-UV and x-ray excitation were studied. Luminescence spectra reveal three UV-emitting peaks at about 310, 330, and 350 nm from which we conclude that Ce3+...journal article 2010

Fumarola, M. (author), Huang, Y. (author), Tekinay, C. (author), Seck, M.D. (author)Simulation models are often used to analyze the behavior and performance of infrastructure systems. The use of simulation models in multi-actor design processes is restricted to the analysis phase after conceptual designs have been completed. To use simulation models throughout the design process, simulation environments need to be adapted to...conference paper 2010

Testa, G. (author), Huang, Y. (author), Zeni, L. (author), Sarro, P. (author), Bernini, R. (author)We report the design and the fabrication of an integrated optofluidic ring resonator based on liquid core antiresonant reflecting optical waveguide (ARROW) operating around ?=635nm with a water filled core (nc=1.33). This waveguide permits a strong coupling between light and analyte as the same microchannel can be used for delivering sample and...conference paper 2011

Huang, H.Y. (author), Hsu, S.H. (author)For face representation, the illumination effect is an important factor, in order to reduce illumination factor, we propose a facial feature location method based on improved active shape model (IASM) to reduce the drawback of intensity contrast and to enhance edge information. First, the face images are preprocessed by the proposed illumination...conference paper 2011

Su, J.F. (author), Wang, X.Y (author), Huang, Z. (author), Zhao, Y.H. (author), Yuan, X.Y. (author)Microencapsulated phase change materials (microPCMs) have been widely applied in solid matrix as thermal-storage or temperature-controlling functional composites. The thermal conductivity of these microPCMs/matrix composites is an important property need to be considered. In this study, a series of microPCMs have been fabricated using the in...journal article 2011

Huang, Y. (author), Pandraud, G. (author), Sarro, P.M. (author)A promising concept for a photonic crystal sensor for liquid sensing applications is introduced. The two dimensional photonic crystals are fabricated using a recently developed Atomic layer deposition ARrays Defined by Etch-back technique (AARDE) to obtain large functional surfaces and dense pillar arrays. Photonic signals are collected by means...journal article 2011

Huang, X. (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author)We derive two types of saddlepoint approximations for expectations in the form of E[(X - K)+], where X is the sum of n independent random variables and K is a known constant. We establish error convergence rates for both types of approximations in the independently and identically distributed case. The approximations are further extended to...journal article 2011

Pedaci, F. (author), Huang, Z. (author), Van Oene, M. (author), Dekker, N.H. (author)The optical torque wrench is a laser trapping technique that expands the capability of standard optical tweezers to torque manipulation and measurement, using the laser linear polarization to orient tailored microscopic birefringent particles. The ability to measure torque of the order of kBT (?4 pN nm) is especially important in the study of...journal article 2012

Testa, G. (author), Huang, Y. (author), Zeni, L. (author), Sarro, P.M. (author), Bernini, R. (author)In this work we review recent results of our work on optofluidics. We show that single mode optofluidic waveguides with low loss can be realized using antiresonant reflecting optical confinement (ARROW). These waveguides can be fabricated using full standard silicon technology or hybrid silicon-polymer processes. ARROW waveguides have been used...conference paper 2012

Huang, Y. (author), Pandraud, G. (author), Sarro, P.M. (author)We propose and experimentally demonstrate a reflectance-based photonic crystal (PC) liquid sensor. The PC is made of two-dimensional TiO2 nanopillar arrays. Such a reflectance-based structure with large functional area not only simplifies the optical guiding but also enhances the sensor signal. A linear shift of reflectance peaks is found for...journal article 2012
