Extreme resistance of superhydrophobic surfaces to impalement : reversible electrowetting related to the impacting/bouncing drop test

P. Brunet, F. Lapierre, V. Thomy, Yannick Coffinier, Rabah Boukherroub

The paper reports on the comparison of the wetting properties of super-hydrophobic silicon nanowires (NWs), using drop impact impalement and electrowetting (EW) experiments. A correlation between the resistance to impalement on both EW and drop impact is shown. From the results, it is evident that…

Blind Channel Equalization Using Constrained Generalized Pattern Search Optimization and Reinitialization Strategy

Abdelouahib Zaouche, Iyad Dayoub, Jean-Michel Rouvaen, Charles Tatkeu

We propose a global convergence baud-spaced blind equalization method in this paper. This method is based on the application of both generalized pattern optimization and channel surfing reinitialization. The potentially used unimodal cost function relies on higher- order statistics, and its…

Optical nanowires for microwave applications

Didier Decoster, Michèle Carette, Marie Lesecq, D. Lauvernier, Malek Zegaoui, D. Bernard, Jean-Pierre Vilcot, Jean Chazelas

In this paper, we propose to take advantage of specific properties of nanophotonics to achieve microwave functions which are difficult to get with more conventional ways. With this goal, we developed new technologies to fabricate III-V nanowaveguides. Two ways were explored: the first one by deep…

Directional beam pattern from a double metal quantum cascade laser with a TEM-horn antenna

Tahsin Akalin, Wilfried Maineult, Emilien Peytavit, P. Jellie, Jean-Francois Lampin, Carlo Sirtori, Stefano Barbieri

We present the operation and the far field radiation pattern of a 2.9 THz double metal quantum cascade laser (QCL) with a micro TEM-horn antenna. An improvement of both the radiation pattern and the collected power level (typically a factor of 2 with f/1 optics) are observed in comparison with the…

Enhanced directional optical transmission

L. Dobrzynski, Abdellatif Akjouj

The system presented here enables transmission of almost all the light intensities injected in four input channels into one output channel. It is conceived in the form of a metallic wire with one central hole and four other holes parallel to the central one. The incident light is injected in the…
