POF-Based Solar Concentrators Incorporating Dyes and Europium Chelates
(MDPI, 2021-05-19)
In this paper, useful models that enable time-efficient computational analyses of the performance of luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are developed and thoroughly described. These LSCs are based on polymer optical ...
Effects of Fabrication Methods on the Performance of Luminescent Solar Concentrators Based on Doped Polymer Optical Fibers
(MDPI, 2021-01-28)
In this work, we detail two types of fabrication processes of four polymer optical fibers doped with lumogen dyes. The fiber preforms have been manufactured with two different methods: extrusion and casting. We have compared ...
Shortcuts to adiabatic rotation of a two-ion chain
(IOP, 2021-10)
We inverse engineer fast rotations of a transversally tight, linear trap with two ions for a predetermined rotation angle and time, avoiding final excitation. Different approaches are analyzed and compared when the ions ...
New algorithm for the elucidation of functional properties of gelatin-based materials
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2021-10)
In the present work, fish gelatin was employed to develop renewable and biodegradable materials, reducing environmental problems associated with conventional petroleum-based materials. Glycerol was used as plasticizer and ...
Fabrication and characterization of active polymer optical fibers with a ring-doped structure
(Elsevier, 2023-01)
This paper employs the solution-doping technique for the fabrication of polymer optical fibers (POFs) doped with two perylene derivatives, Lumogen Yellow 083 and Lumogen Red 305, in different combinations. With the ...
Gamifying Physics Laboratory Work Increases Motivation and Enhances Acquisition of the Skills Required for Application of the Scientific Method
(MDPI, 2023-03-14)
Although increasing student motivation is widely accepted to enhance learning outcomes, this relationship has scarcely been studied quantitatively. Therefore, this study aimed to address this knowledge gap by exploring the ...
Temperature effects on the emission of polymer optical fibers doped with Lumogen dyes
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
In this paper, we report the temperature effects on the luminescence of polymer optical fibers doped with Lumogen dyes (red and orange). Specifically, we have analyzed the intensity and the average wavelength of the spectra ...
Fast Driving of a Particle in Two Dimensions without Final Excitation
(MDPI, 2022-11-19)
Controlling the motional state of a particle in a multidimensional space is key for fundamental science and quantum technologies. Applying a recently found two-dimensional invariant combined with linear invariants, we ...
Nonlinear Optical Response of a Plasmonic Nanoantenna to Circularly Polarized Light: Rotation of Multipolar Charge Density and Near-Field Spin Angular Momentum Inversion
(ACS, 2023-10)
The spin and orbital angular momentum carried by electromagnetic pulses open new perspectives to control nonlinear processes in light–matter interactions, with a wealth of potential applications. In this work, we use ...
