Helmholtz solitons in optical materials with a dual power-law refractive index (2010)
Journal Article
Christian, J., McDonald, G., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2010). Helmholtz solitons in optical materials with a dual power-law refractive index. Journal of Nonlinear Optical Physics and Materials, 19(3), 389-405. https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218863510005340

A nonlinear Helmholtz equation is proposed for modelling scalar optical beams in uniform planar waveguides whose refractive index exhibits a purely-focusing dual powerlaw
dependence on the electric field amplitude. Two families of exact analytical s... Read More about Helmholtz solitons in optical materials with a dual power-law refractive index.

Diffusive benefits of cylinders in front of a Schroeder diffuser (2010)
Journal Article
Pogson, M., Whittaker, D., Gehring, G., Cox, T., Hughes, R., & Angus, J. (2010). Diffusive benefits of cylinders in front of a Schroeder diffuser. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 128(3), 1149-1154. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3463817

A numerical investigation is performed into the diffusive effects of cylinders positioned in front of a Schroeder diffuser. A regular line of cylinders is shown to offer notable improvements to diffusion from a periodic Schroeder device, provided lat...

Estimation of changes in the volume of ice making up Gornergletscher since the little ice age maximum (2010)
Thesis

Few estimates of glacier volume and changes in mass over the past 150 years are
available for the Swiss Alps. This thesis aims to estimate changes in the mass of ice
making up Gornergletscher since the Little Ice Age maximum extent (LIAM) in 1860... Read More about Estimation of changes in the volume of ice making up Gornergletscher since the little ice age maximum.

Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure (2010)
Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., De Coensel, B., Botteldooren, D., Berglund, B., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2011). Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure. Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 16(1), 15-22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2010.07.012

Using data from a realistic experiment conducted using recorded traffic sounds, the relationship
between indicators of magnitude, spectrum, and temporal evolution of the sonic
environment and the reported annoyance are analyzed. The exposure is cha... Read More about Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure.

The PAGE (Page Analysis and Ground-Truth Elements) format framework (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

There is a plethora of established and proposed document representation formats but none that can adequately support individual stages within an entire sequence of document image analysis methods (from document image enhancement to layout analysis to...

Phagocytosis of biocompatible gold nanoparticles (2010)
Journal Article
Krpeticc, Z., Porta, F., Caneva, E., Dal Santo, V., & Scarì, G. (2010). Phagocytosis of biocompatible gold nanoparticles. Langmuir, 26(18), 14799-14805. https://doi.org/10.1021/la102758f

We report the evidence for the cellular uptake of gold nanoparticles via the phagocytosis mechanism in murine macrophage cells strongly supported by TEM and optical microscopy. Nanoparticles were prepared using several biocompatible molecules of choi... Read More about Phagocytosis of biocompatible gold nanoparticles.

Spectroscopy of bismuth-doped lead–aluminum–germanate glass and yttrium–aluminum–silicate glass (2010)
Journal Article
yttrium–aluminum–silicate glass. Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 356(44-49), 2302-2309. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jnoncrysol.2010.03.043

In this work we make a comparison between the spectroscopy of bismuth-doped lead–aluminum–
germanate (Bi:PAG) glass and bismuth-doped yttrium–aluminum–silicate (Bi:YAS) glass. We report the
variation in Bi absorption, emission and lifetime as the P... Read More about Spectroscopy of bismuth-doped lead–aluminum–germanate glass and yttrium–aluminum–silicate glass.

Wavelength selective coupler on silicon for applications in wavelength division multiplexing (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A wavelength selective add/drop filter based on coupled vertical gratings is proposed for applications in wavelength division multiplexing on silicon. We demonstrate tailoring of device bandwidth and channel location.

Properties of CuInSe2 and Mo thin films produced by pulsed d.c magnetron sputtering for solar cell fabrication (2010)
