(author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Sarro, Pasqualina M (author)The next generation of satellites will need to tackle tomorrow's challenges for communication, navigation and observation. In order to do so, it is expected that the amount of satellites in orbit will keep increasing, form smart constellations and miniaturize individual satellites to make access to space cost effective. To enable this next...journal article 2023

(author), Pérez-Galacho, Diego (author)On-chip spatial and polarization multiplexing has emerged as a powerful strategy to boost the data transmission capacity of integrated optical transceivers. State-of-the-art multiplexers require accurate control of the relative phase or the spatial distribution among different guided optical modes, seriously compromising the optical...journal article 2023

Jahangiri, M. (author), Sberna, P.M. (author), Sammak, A. (author), Nihtianova, S. (author)A clear understanding of the spectral components of an irradiated beam, or captured optical emission, is essential to optimize an optical system and increase its performance. Logically, for this purpose a grating-based spectrometer could be the first choice. However, in the case of a wide range spectrum, and for radiation with one dominant...conference paper 2023

Dutta, S. (author), Hueting, Raymond J.E. (author), Verbiest, G.J. (author)We report an avalanche-mode light-emitting transistor (AMLET) in silicon (Si), based on a lateral bipolar junction, which emits light near 760 nm optical wavelength with a record low bandwidth of 38 nm. The AMLET, designed in a CMOS-compatible silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photonics platform, is optically confined within a 0.21 ∼\μ m thick SOI...journal article 2022

(author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Leijtens, Johan (author), Sarro, Pasqualina M (author)In this paper we present a sun position sensor platform with a scalable approach for the 3D integration of the sensor optics. This would facilitate the sun position sensor miniaturization, reduces fabrication cost and mitigates the need for sensor calibration. The sun position sensor platform is implemented in a seven mask BICMOS technology with...conference paper 2021

Loozen, G.B. (author), Karuna, A. (author), Rafiee Fanood, M.M. (author), Schreuder, Erik (author), Caro-Schuurman, J. (author)We realized integrated photonics multi-waveguide devices for optical trapping and Raman spectroscopy of particles in a fluid. In these devices, multiple beams directed towards the device center lead to a local field enhancement around this center and thus counteract the effect of light concentration near the facets, which is a disadvantage of...journal article 2020

Xin, Yu (author), Pandraud, G. (author), French, P.J. (author)In this Letter, a slope transfer method to fabricate vertical waveguide couplers is proposed. This method utilises wet etched Si as a mask, and takes advantage of dry etching selectivity between Si and SiC, to successfully transfer the profile from the Si master into SiC. By adopting this method, a <2° slope is achieved. Such a taper can...journal article 2019

(author), Verweij, M.D. (author), Kooiman, Klazina (author)Ultrasound contrast agents consist of gas-filled coated microbubbles that oscillate upon ultrasound insonification. Their characteristic oscillatory response provides contrast enhancement for imaging and has the potential to locally enhance drug delivery. Since microbubble response depends on the local acoustic pressure, an ultrasound...journal article 2018
