Fabrication and Characterization of Efficient Optical Filter Arrays Implemented by 3D Nanoimprint
(2016-06-09)
In dieser Arbeit werden optische Filterarrays für hochqualitative spektroskopische Anwendungen im sichtbaren (VIS) Wellenlängenbereich untersucht. Die optischen Filter, bestehend aus Fabry-Pérot (FP)-Filtern für hochauflösende miniaturisierte optische Nanospektrometer, basieren auf zwei hochreflektierenden dielektrischen Spiegeln und einer zwischenliegenden Resonanzkavität aus Polymer. Jeder Filter erlaubt einem schmalbandigem spektralen Band (in dieser Arbeit Filterlinie genannt) ,abhängig von der Höhe der ...

THz Plasma Waves in Field-Effect-Transistors: A Monte Carlo Study
(2016-02-10)
Sensing with electromagnetic waves having frequencies in the Terahertz-range is a very attractive investigative method with applications in fundamental research and industrial settings. Up to now, a lot of sources and detectors are available. However, most of these systems are bulky and have to be used in controllable environments such as laboratories. In 1993 Dyakonov and Shur suggested that plasma waves developing in field-effect-transistors can be used to emit and detect THz-radiation. Later on, it was shown that ...

Optimization in the Technological Steps for the Fabrication of Large Area Micromirror Arrays
(2015-02-23)
Micromirror arrays are a very strong candidate for future energy saving applications. Within this work, the fabrication process for these micromirror arrays has been optimized and some steps for the large area fabrication of micromirror modules were performed. At first the surface roughness of the insulation layer of silicon dioxide (SiO2) was investigated. This SiO2 thin layer was deposited on three different type of substrates i.e. silicon, glass and Polyethylene Naphthalate (PEN) substrates. The deposition ...

Development, Evaluation and Optimization of Fabrication Processes for Daylight Guiding Systems Based on Micromirror Arrays
(2017-01-11)
In this work, fabrication processes for daylight guiding systems based on micromirror arrays are developed, evaluated and optimized.Two different approaches are used: At first, nanoimprint lithography is used to fabricate large area micromirrors by means of Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography (SCIL).Secondly,a new lithography technique is developed using a novel bi-layered photomask to fabricate large area micromirror arrays. The experimental results showing a reproducible stable process, high yield, and is ...

Interferometrisch messender faseroptischer Sensor mit mechanisch oszillierender Sonde
(2015-07-14)
Punktförmig messende optische Sensoren zum Erfassen von Oberflächentopografien im Nanometerbereich werden in der Forschung und Industrie benötigt. Dennoch ist die Auswahl unterschiedlicher Technologien und kommerziell verfügbarer Sensoren gering. In dieser Dissertationsschrift werden die wesentlichen Aspekte eines Messsystems untersucht das über das Potenzial verfügt, zu den künftigen Standardmessmethoden zu gehören. Das Messprinzip beruht auf einem Common-Path-Interferometer. In einer mikrooptischen Sonde wird das ...

Experimentelle Untersuchung des Optimierungspotenzials in der kurzkohärenten Interferenzmikroskopie
(2016-03-17)
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit dem lateralen Auflösungsvermögen in der kurzkohärenten Interferenzmikroskopie. Das 3D-Auflösungsvermögen von Phasenobjekten ist im Gegensatz zu dem von Intensitätsobjekten stark nichtlinear und vom spezifischen Messverfahren abhängig. In diesem Zusammenhang sind systematische Messfehler von entscheidender Bedeutung. Für die kurzkohärente Interferenzmikroskopie ist das Überschwingen an Kanten von besonderem Belang, da sich der Effekt bei der Messung vieler technischer Oberflächen ...

Model Calculations for Characterisation and Implementation of Vertical Thin-Layer Structures with Distributed Cavity Mode for Filter and Laser Applications
(2018-04-11)
This work focusses on the approach of optical thin-layer filters with distributed cavity mode. Fabry-Pérot filters own a single cavity layer in the centre of the stack. In contrast, with chirped filter approach the cavity thickness is distributed over several layers. Model calculation results are applied to characterise the properties of the spectrum and the electric field of chirped filters. The aim of distributing the cavity within the filter stack is to distribute the electric field in the resonance case (transmission ...

Patent DE10 2004 037 519 B4 “Sensor Process and Device for Determining a Physical Value“. A Proof of Concept
(2010-06-11)
At present, a fraction of 0.1 - 0.2% of the patients undergoing surgery become aware during the process. The situation is referred to as anesthesia awareness and is obviously very traumatic for the person experiencing it. The reason for its occurrence is mostly an insufficient dosage of the narcotic Propofol combined with the incapability of the technology monitoring the depth of the patient’s anesthetic state to notice the patient becoming aware.
A solution can be a highly sensitive and selective real time monitoring ...

Large-Size AlGaN/GaN HEMT Large-Signal Electrothermal Characterization and Modeling for Wireless Digital Communications
(2012-03-29)
The rapid growth in high data rate communication systems has introduced new high spectral efficient modulation techniques and standards such as LTE-A (long term evolution-advanced) for 4G (4th generation) systems. These techniques have provided a broader bandwidth but introduced high peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) problem at the high power amplifier (HPA) level of the communication system base transceiver station (BTS). To avoid spectral spreading due to high PAR, stringent requirement on linearity is needed which ...

Optimization-Based Robotic Manipulation for Safe Interaction with Human Operators
(2014-05-02)
This thesis investigates a method for human-robot interaction (HRI) in order to uphold productivity of industrial robots like minimization of the shortest operation time, while ensuring human safety like collision avoidance. For solving such problems an online motion planning approach for robotic manipulators with HRI has been proposed. The approach is based on model predictive control (MPC) with embedded mixed integer programming.
The planning strategies of the robotic manipulators mainly considered in the thesis ...
