In recent years, ultra-cold atomic gases have emerged as a novel platform for the study of quantum many-body systems. Exploiting these gases, it is possible to synthesize quantum matter of highly controllable properties ...

Absorption spectroscopy is a useful technique to detect the presence of specific elements in samples. However, its usefulness can be severely limited in certain frequency bands due to technological limitations, such as the ...

Sensor calibration can be done by identifying known points of interest of a calibration pattern into the intensity images captured with the sensor. If the same exact points are identified using multiple sensors, then ...

High-resolution time measurement is a fundamental building block on a wide variety of applications such as time-of-flight based systems, single-photon microscopy and quantum communications. FPGA-based TDCs are the preferred ...

To properly account for imperfections in fabrication of lenses and mechanics as well as optics alignment limitations, it is necessary to run a tolerance analysis during the optical design process. But it is often unclear ...

Extensively researched in the last years, the Microwave Photonics Technology field has a number of potential advantages including extremely wide bandwidth, very low frequency constant losses, light weight, immunity to EMI ...

In surface colonization, microorganisms tend to form complex biological structures containing cells and adhesion molecules, called biofilms, which provide them with high stability and resistance to biocide compounds. These ...

When light strikes on a diffuser surface a new energy redistribution is created. The diffusion patterns depends on the material of the diffuser and how light reach the diffuser. The aim of this project is to characterize ...

Light control inside a sample is central in areas as relevant as life sciences and material sciences. Traditionally, this is achieved by using external devices, which can be limited by a short focal depth, scattering-limited ...
