Yu, D. (author), Arora, S. (author), Kuipers, L. (author)We investigate how altering the interface geometry from a zigzag to a glide plane interface between two topologically distinct valley Hall emulating photonic crystals (VPC), profoundly affects edge states. We experimentally observe a transition from gapless to gapped edge states, accompanied by the occurrence of slow light within the...journal article 2024

Clarke, Nicholas (author), Kuipers, M.C. (author)Addressing the complex legacies of the past in architectural education and built constructions, calls for a reconsidering of the principles of architectural design and conservation.

Kuipers, M.C. (author), Clarke, Nicholas (author)Pieter Simon Dijkstra (1884-1968) is regarded as a noted Protestant church designer in South Africa, but his contribution to the built environment in the Netherlands is much less well known. His life and career in the country of his birth are of interest because they are closely aligned with the religious turbulence of the period, in which the...journal article 2023

Kuipers, J.R. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Background: Even though accompanied driving and simulator training are common, clarity on their usage trends and effectiveness is lacking. This research aimed to deepen the understanding of the relationships between personal characteristics, pre-licence accompanied driving, self-reported post-licence driving behaviour, and driving performance...journal article 2023

(author), Kuipers, L. (author), Giessen, Harald (author)The creation and manipulation of optical vortices, both in free space and in two-dimensional systems such as surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), has attracted widespread attention in nano-optics due to their robust topological structure. Coupled with strong spatial confinement in the case of SPPs, these plasmonic vortices and their underlying...journal article 2023

Hernandez-Rueda, Javier (author), Pérez-Benito, Óscar (author), Martínez Maestro, Laura (author), Noordam, M.L. (author), Kuipers, L. (author), Weigand, Rosa (author)Nowadays, the accurate and full temporal characterization of ultrabroadband few-cycle laser pulses with pulse durations below 7 fs is of great importance in fields of science that investigate ultrafast dynamic processes. There are several indirect methods that use nonlinear optical signals to retrieve the complex electric field of femtosecond...journal article 2023

Kuipers, Jeroen (author), Schoenmakers, Gijs (author), Staňková, K. (author)We consider two-player zero-sum differential games of fixed duration, where the running payoff and the dynamics are both linear in the controls of the players. Such games have a value, which is determined by the unique viscosity solution of a Hamilton–Jacobi-type partial differential equation. Approximation schemes for computing the viscosity...journal article 2023

Kuipers, M.C. (author)Een vraag vanuit Zuid-Afrika leidde tot de ontdekking van ir. J.E. Ferguson (1900-1982) en haar bijzondere loopbaan. Zij was een van de eerste professionele architectes in Nederland, maar haar werk is vrijwel onbekend. Samen met haar derde echtgenoot had zij een eigen bureau in achtereenvolgens Johannesburg en Salisbury (nu Harare). In 1961...journal article 2022

Arora, S. (author), Bauer, T.A. (author), Parappurath, N. (author), Barczyk, R.T. (author), Verhagen, E. (author), Kuipers, L. (author)We measure the local near-field spin in topological edge state waveguides that emulate the quantum spin Hall effect. We reveal a highly structured spin density distribution that is not linked to a unique pseudospin value. From experimental near-field real-space maps and numerical calculations, we confirm that this local structure is essential...journal article 2022

Kuipers, T. (author), Su, Renbo (author), Wu, J. (author), Wang, Charlie C.L. (author)Material Extrusion (MEX) systems with dual-material capability can unlock interesting applications where flexible and rigid materials are combined. When chemically incompatible materials are concerned the adhesion between the two might be insufficient. Therefore researchers typically rely on dovetail type interlocking geometries in order to...journal article 2022

(author), Alù, Andrea (author), Kuipers, L. (author)Near-field scanning optical microscopy is a powerful technique for imaging below the diffraction limit, which has been extensively used in biomedical imaging and nanophotonics. However, when the electromagnetic fields under measurement are strongly confined, they can be heavily perturbed by the presence of the near-field probe itself. Here,...journal article 2022
