Ultraviolet-visible light-induced solarisation in silica-based optical fibres for indoor solar applications
2021
Abstract The transmission performances of pure- and doped-silica (a-SiO2) optical fibres are compared during the exposure to a high-power broadband light source approximating the solar spectrum. From the Gaussian decomposition of the attenuation spectra, we found that Al- and P-doped fibres show a fast solarisation effect which leads to transmission degradation in the ultraviolet-visible range. Similarly, Ge-doped fibres undergo photoinduced colour-centre formation which, however, does not prevent visible-light propagation. One of the two tested pure-silica fibres results completely unaffected by light exposure whereas the other shows an absorption band probably due to the presence of chlor…
Photoprotection and photoreception of intraocular lenses under xenon and white LED illumination.
2016
Objective. To analyze the photoprotection and phototransmission that various intraocular lenses (10Ls) provide under the illumination of a xenon (Xe) lamp and white LEDs (light emitting diode). Methods. The spectral transmission curves of six representative 10Ls were measured using a Perkin-Elmer Lambda 35 UV/VIS spectrometer. Various filtering simulations were performed using a Xe lamp and white LEDs. The spectral emissions of these lamps were measured with an ILT-950 spectroradiometer. Results. The 10Ls analyzed primarily show transmission of nearly 100% in the visible spectrum. In the ultraviolet (UV) region, the filters incorporated in the various 10Ls did not filter equally, and some o…
Analysis of multiple internal reflections in a parallel aligned liquid crystal on silicon SLM
2014
Multiple internal reflection effects on the optical modulation of a commercial reflective parallel-aligned liquid-crystal on silicon (PAL-LCoS) spatial light modulator (SLM) are analyzed. The display is illuminated with different wavelengths and different angles of incidence. Non-negligible Fabry-Perot (FP) effect is observed due to the sandwiched LC layer structure. A simplified physical model that quantitatively accounts for the observed phenomena is proposed. It is shown how the expected pure phase modulation response is substantially modified in the following aspects: 1) a coupled amplitude modulation, 2) a non-linear behavior of the phase modulation, 3) some amount of unmodulated light…
Modeling of light pipes for the optimal disposition in buildings
2019
A light pipe is an excellent solution to transport and distribute daylight into environments without or with little lighting, guaranteeing comfort inside the rooms. As stated in the literature, the evaluation of the performances of light pipes presents numerous complexities, making the work very difficult for technicians and designers. This study is aimed to present a methodology that is able to identify the potential of light pipes using indices such as daylight autonomy (DA), continuous daylight autonomy (DAc), and useful daylight illuminance (UDI). This paper presents an analysis of daylight obtained by several configurations of simple models of light pipes installed into a 5 ×

Rīgas apgaismes tehnikas rūpnīcas darbība no 1958.-1991.gadam
2016
PSRS rūpniecības vēsture ir interesanta un maz pētīta nozare, kas aktuāla arī mūsdienās, jo sekas atstājušas ietekmi ne tikai uz ekonomiku, bet arī uz lielas sabiedrības daļas domāšanas veidu. Tādēļ nepieciešami jauni pētījumi, kas raksturotu un analizētu PSRS ekonomikas pozitīvos un negatīvos aspektus. Uzmanība pievērsta konkrētam rūpniecības uzņēmumam - Rīgas apgaismes tehnikas rūpnīcai. Rūpnīcas darbībā redzamas problēmas, ko sagādāja ekonomikas plānošana pa piecgades periodiem, kas bija jāizpilda par katru cenu, neraugoties uz neprecīzajiem aprēķiniem un nepielāgojoties tirgus situācijai. Tas noveda pie izejmateriālu deficīta, sliktas kvalitātes ražojumiem un nespējas konkurēt ne tikai …

LeptonInjector and LeptonWeighter: A neutrino event generator and weighter for neutrino observatories
2021
We present a high-energy neutrino event generator, called LeptonInjector, alongside an event weighter, called LeptonWeighter. Both are designed for large-volume Cherenkov neutrino telescopes such as IceCube. The neutrino event generator allows for quick and flexible simulation of neutrino events within and around the detector volume, and implements the leading Standard Model neutrino interaction processes relevant for neutrino observatories: neutrino-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering and neutrino-electron annihilation. In this paper, we discuss the event generation algorithm, the weighting algorithm, and the main functions of the publicly available code, with examples.

Integrated experimental and theoretical study on the phase transition and photoluminescent properties of ZrO2:xTb3+ (x=1, 2, 4 and 8 mol %)
2021
Abstract Zirconia (ZrO2) has been intensively studied as an important ceramic material, and numerous technological applications have been found. The present work deals with synthesizing and characterizing the phase transition (cubic vs tetragonal) and photoluminescence emissions of ZrO2:xTb3+ (x = 1,2,4 and 8 mol%). The samples formed by the complex polymerization were thoroughly characterized for physicochemical properties such powder by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Raman and diffuse reflectance spectroscopies. First-principle calculations at the density functional theory level were performed to complement and rationalize the experimental results. An energy transfer mechanism which promote…
