Ultra-high resolution Fourier domain optical coherence tomography for resolving thin layers in painted works of art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
While OCT has been applied to the non-invasive examination of the stratigraphy of paint layers in recent years, it has been recognized that the resolutions of commercially available OCT cannot compete in depth resolution with conventional microscopic ...

Case Report: Two Cases of Salivary Duct Carcinoma in Workers With a History of Chromate Exposure

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Background: Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC), one subtype of the 22 different salivary gland cancers, is a rare malignancy. Risk factors for the development of salivary gland cancer and SDC are largely unknown, although pollution has been described as one ...

Inactivation and spike protein denaturation of novel coronavirus variants by Cu x O/TiO2 nano-photocatalysts

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
In order to reduce infection risk of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), we developed nano-photocatalysts with nanoscale rutile TiO2 (4–8 nm) and Cu x O (1–2 nm or less). Their extraordinarily small size leads to high dispersity and good optical transparency,

Long wavelength optical coherence tomography for painted objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Optical Coherence Tomography has been successfully applied to the imaging of painted objects in recent years. However, a significant limitation is the low penetration depth of OCT in paint because of the high opacity of paint due to either scattering or ...

Learning to Paint With Model-Based Deep Reinforcement Learning [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2019
We show how to teach machines to paint like human painters, who can use a small number of strokes to create fantastic paintings. By employing a neural renderer in model-based Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), our agents learn to determine the position ...

Intense terahertz generation in two-color laser filamentation: energy scaling with terawatt laser systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
We investigate high-power terahertz (THz) generation in two-color laser filamentation using terawatt (TW) lasers including a 0.5 TW, 1 kHz system, as well as 2 and 30 TW systems both operating at 10 Hz.
