Low-cost optical manipulation using hanging droplets of PDMS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose and demonstrate a low-cost optical micromanipulation system that makes use of simple microfrabricated components coupled to a smartphone camera for imaging. Layering hanging droplets of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) on microscope coverslips, and

Chirality in optical trapping and optical binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Optical trapping is a well-established technique that is increasingly used on biological substances and nanostructures. Chirality, the property of objects that differ from their mirror image, is also of significance in such fields, and a subject of much ...

Beyond Lambertian light trapping for large-area silicon solar cells: fabrication methods

open access: yesOpto-Electronic Advances, 2022
Light trapping photonic crystal (PhC) patterns on the surface of Si solar cells provides a novel opportunity to approach the theoretical efficiency limit of 32.3%, for light-to-electrical power conversion with a single junction cell.

Angular constraint on light-trapping absorption enhancement in solar cells

open access: yes, 2010
Light trapping for solar cells can reduce production cost and improve energy conversion efficiency. Understanding some of the basic theoretical constraints on light trapping is therefore of fundamental importance.

Light trapping in ultrathin plasmonic solar cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We report on the design, fabrication, and measurement of ultrathin film a-Si:H solar cells with nanostructured plasmonic back contacts, which demonstrate enhanced short circuit current densities compared to cells having flat or randomly textured back ...

Comparison of Phototactic Behavior between Two Migratory Pests, Helicoverpa armigera and Spodoptera frugiperda

open access: yesInsects, 2022
The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important migratory pest, causing great losses to agricultural production. Light trapping is a pesticide-free method for pest control and is influenced by many factors, especially ...

Interference scheme to measure light-induced nonlinearities in Bose-Einstein condensates

open access: yes, 2003
Light-induced nonlinear terms in the Gross-Pitaevskii equation arise from the stimulated coherent exchange of photons between two atoms. For atoms in an optical dipole trap this effect depends on the spatial profile of the trapping laser beam.
