Tradurre l'invisibile
2017
Cultura e visibile sono due termini con i quali chi si occupa di design della comunicazione visiva si imbatte continuamente, inciampandoci, girandoci intorno, raccogliendoli e portandoli via con sé, facendoli diventare soggetti più che parole che per nessun motivo possono essere ignorati tanto diventano centrali ed essenziali nel processo progettuale di ogni designer. E tanto accade in ogni fase della costruzione della propria professionalità, ovviamente con una diversa consapevolezza e padronanza delle capacità acquisite, all’inizio durante il percorso di studi, nella struttura della propria formazione, nell’esperienza più matura del progetto, della ricerca, della sperimentazione, nella tr…
ExTTF-Based Dyes Absorbing over the Whole Visible Spectrum
2011
International audience; New push−pull dyes featuring π-extended tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) as the donor group and tricyanofuran (TCF) as the acceptor group were synthesized and characterized. Their broad absorption covers the entire visible spectral range and enters the near-infrared region. Electrochemistry and theoretical calculations provided an understanding of these singular electronic properties. The new dyes are appealing candidates as light harvesters in photovoltaic devices.
Stable Green Electroluminescence from an Iridium Tris-Heteroleptic Ionic Complex
2012
An ionic tris-heteroleptic iridium complex gives green light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) with unprecedented performances for this part of the visible spectrum. The devices are very bright (>1000 cd m–2), efficient (∼3%), and stable (>55 h). The novel complex is prepared using a new and efficient synthetic procedure. We show that there is a mixed orbital formation originating from the two different orthometalating ligands resulting in photophysical properties that lie between those of its two bis-heteroleptic analogs. Therefore, tris-heteroleptic complexes provide new avenues for fine-tunning the emission properties and to bridge gaps between a series of bis-heteroleptic complexes.
Bis-, Tris-, and Tetrakis(squaraines) Linked by Stilbenoid Scaffolds
2001
The oligosquaraines 1−5, with stilbenoid scaffolds, were prepared by multistep syntheses in which the final steps consisted of condensation reactions between the semisquaric acid 21 and multiple resorcinols 12b−15b and 17b. The target compounds exhibit intense (ϵ > 250000 L·mol−1·cm−1) and sharp absorption bands with maxima between 687 to 778 nm, depending on the conjugation in the stilbenoid scaffold. Comparison with the monosquaraine 6 as a model compound reveals intramolecular interactions between different donor−acceptor−donor moieties, which give rise to increased absorption intensities.
Environment recognition applied to particle detectors
2017
Resumen en español Introducción Los detectores de partículas son dispositivos que registran la radiación ionizante, bien de sistemas activos (rayos X, aceleradores, etc.) o bien de isótopos radiactivos. Para poder realizar medidas de precisión con estos instrumentos, es necesario modelar geométricamente el entorno, contorno o escena bajo estudio. Estas condiciones geométricas se pueden determinar de forma más o menos precisa en algunos experimentos de física de partículas/nuclear, y en algunos sistemas de imagen, como las tomografías. Sin embargo, este escenario no es necesariamente el habitual. El propósito principal de este trabajo de tesis es desarrollar técnicas e instrumentos que aport…
Spectrophotometric investigation of the binding of vitamin E to water-containing reversed micelles.
2002
The distribution constants of vitamin E partitioned between apolar organic phase and water-containing reversed micelles of sodium bis (2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT), didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB), soybean phosphatidylcholine (lecithin) and tetraethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C12E4) have been evaluated by a spectrophotometric method. The results suggest that in the presence of domains from apolar organic solvent to surfactant and to water, vitamin E is partitioned between the micellar palisade layer and the organic solvent and also that its binding strength to reversed micelles depends mainly by specific interactions between the head group of vitamin E and that of the sur…
Synthesis of Tetrastilbenylmethanes by Wittig−Horner Reactions
2004
The all-(E)-configured tetrastilbenylmethanes 3a−e and 5a,b can be obtained by fourfold Wittig−Horner reactions. The tetrahedral arrangement of these compounds guarantees independent stilbenoid chromophores with a high chromophore density. Apart from (E)/(Z) isomerization reactions, irradiation leads to a three-dimensional network with isolated unchanged stilbene units. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Investigation of data encryption impact on broadcasting visible light communications
2014
Este trabajo investiga el impacto de la encriptación y desencriptación de datos en un sistema de comunicaciones de luz visible (VLC) de difusión en interiores incrustado en la capa física. Se ha implementado el cifrado RSA para proporcionar una transmisión de datos segura en la capa física. El artículo muestra el rendimiento de la tasa de error de bits (BER) para los sistemas VLC seguros y no seguros (8 y 12 bits) para velocidades de datos de 2 y 12 Mbps. Para una BER de 10e-4 mostramos que hay penalizaciones de potencia de 2-4 dB con las VLC seguras. También se investiga el impacto de la longitud de la clave en la propagación del error y la penalización de potencia. EU Cost Action IC1101 T…
LST retrieval algorithm adapted to the Amazon evergreen forests using MODIS data
2018
Abstract Amazonian tropical forests play a significant role in global water, carbon and energy cycles. Considering the importance of this biome and climate change projections, the monitoring of vegetation status of these rainforests becomes of significant importance. In this context vegetation temperature is presented as a key variable linked with plant physiology. In particular some studies showed the relationship between this variable and the CO2 absorption capacity and biomass loss of these tropical forests proving the potential use of vegetation temperature in the monitoring of the vegetation status. Nevertheless, the use of thermal remote sensing data over tropical forests still has so…
Hybrid VLC/WiFi Architectures with Priority Feedback Channels
2022
In this paper, we consider integrating Visible Light Communication (VLC) and WiFi technologies in an ultra-dense (massive) Internet of Things scenario, where WiFi links are used for complementing VLC links and vice-versa. Indeed, in case of mobility and/or bidirectional communications, limited coverage areas and self-generated interference can be an issue. We consider hybrid VLC/WiFi nodes where the VLC link is used for the majority of (data) traffic and the WiFi link is employed as a feedback channel (e.g. transmitting TCP ACKs). In presence of intense WiFi traffic, the WiFi network may be congested and thus, to fully exploit the VLC bandwidth, we discuss possible priority mechanisms to fu…
