In the infrared, photodetectors are the key components in a wide-variety of applications such as thermal imaging, remote sensing, spectroscopy with newer technologies added to the list such as LiDaR and ...
Martínez-Denegrí Sánchez, Guillermo (Date of defense: 2021-09-29)
The environmental issues associated with the use of conventional fuels necessitates the utilisation of renewable energy sources, as well as the implementation of energy efficient designs, in order to ...
Almeida, Jessica Oliveira de (Date of defense: 2022-07-28)
Quantum optics experiments are currently the most advanced techniques to under- stand, verify and simulate quantum phenomena. However, to access all the perfor- mance available in quantum states of ...

With the double pass (DP) technique it is possible to quantify the optical quality of a patient's eye by measuring its point spread function. Due to the low reflectivity of the retina a high-intensity, ...
Pozas Kerstjens, Alejandro (Date of defense: 2019-10-15)
Quantum theory, as counter-intuitive as a theory can get, has turned out to make predictions of the physical world that match observations so precisely that it has been described as the most accurate ...
Kumar, Shubham (Date of defense: 2017-06-21)
Dynamical instabilities which lead to spontaneous pattern formation are present in a wide variety of nonlinear dynamical systems, both in nature as well as in technological areas. The instabilities may ...

The non-invasive and, often, continuous measurement of the hemodynamics of the body, and for the main purposes of this thesis, the brain, is desired because both the instantaneous values and their changes ...
Padhye, Anuja Arun (Date of defense: 2020-06-04)
The ability to manipulate frequency of light, through parametric frequency conversion sources based on X(2) nonlinear materials, offers an effective route to spectral regions unapproachable by conventional ...
