Multispectral imaging: narrow or wide band filters?
2014
This is an Open Access article. This is the publisher’s PDF originally published in Journal of the International Colour Association: http://aic-colour-journal.org/index.php/JAIC/article/view/149 In every aspect, spectral characteristics of filters play an important role in an image acquisition system. For a colorimetric system, traditionally, it is believed that narrow-band filters give rise to higher accuracy of colour reproduction, whereas wide-band filters, such as complementary colour filters, have the advantage of higher sensitivity. In the context of multispectral image capture, the objective is very often to retrieve an estimation of the spectral reflectance of the captured objects. …
Estimation des Cartes du Temps de Collision (TTC) en Vision Para-catadioptrique
2013
National audience; Le temps de contact ou le temps de collision (TTC) est une information importante pour la navigation et l'évitement d'obtacles. Son estimation a largement été étudiée dans le cas des caméras perspectives. Par contre, très peu de travaux ont été effectués sur ce sujet pour les caméras catadioptriques, alors qu'elles sont très utiles, notamment, en navigation des robots mobiles. L'objectif de cet article, est de proposer un nouveau modèle d'estimation du TTC pour les caméras paracatadioptriques basé sur le flot optique, en adaptant celui développé pour les caméras perspectives. Le calcul du TTC en chaque pixel permet d'obtenir la carte des temps de collision. Nous avons val…
Cosmologie des théories de gravite modifiées
2017
The study of physical cosmology has reached an exciting era. For the first time in human history, a quantitative model for the formation and the evolution of the Universe exists, which explains a wide range of phenomena and has been tested with incredible accuracy during the last century. Moreover, weare approaching a time when a bounty of high quality cosmological data will be available,allowing us to use cosmology as a tool to test fundamental physics.In particular, as the large-scale structures of the Universe are governed by gravity, cosmology can help us to asses the correctness of Albert Einstein’s general relativity. This idea fueledmost of the work described in this manuscript,in wh…
Single-mode room-temperature emission with a silicon rod lattice
2006
The authors experimentally evidence an increase of light emission efficiency at room temperature in a silicon-on-insulator photonic crystal. The photonic crystal is made of a triangular lattice of silicon rods and operates as a single-mode light extractor. It exhibits a luminescence intensity two orders of magnitude higher than silicon-on-insulator substrate. In light of photoluminescence experiments, emission diagram measurements, and finite difference time domain calculations, they identify the different optical properties of the photonic crystal and they demonstrate the existence of at least a fivefold emission efficiency enhancement per surface unit.
Nonlinear femtosecond pulse propagation in all-solid photonic bandgap fiber
2009
Nonlinear femtosecond pulse propagation in all-solid photonic bandgap fiber is investigated experimentally and numerically for both the photonic bandgap guiding in the central silica core and the total internal reflection in germanium doped inclusions.
Bloch mode coupling investigation in silicon-on-insulator W1 photonic crystal waveguide
2004
We report in this paper the study of a W1 photonic crystal waveguide which supports two Bloch modes having different parity. A monomode ridge waveguide etched in a Silicon-On-Insulator substrate and connecting to the photonic crystal waveguide allows us to excite the even Bloch mode. Transmission measurements, performed on a broad spectral range, evidence the even mode propagation along the defect line and experimental spectrum is discussed in light of band diagram and FDTD calculations. Then spectrally resolved near-field patterns obtained by using a scanning near field optical microscope in collection mode for wavelengths inside and outside the multimode region of the photonic crystal wav…
Growth of zinc-blende GaN on muscovite mica by molecular beam epitaxy
2021
Abstract The mechanisms of plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxial growth of GaN on muscovite mica were investigated. Using a battery of techniques, including scanning and transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, cathodoluminescence, Raman spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction, it was possible to establish that, in spite of the lattice symmetry mismatch, GaN grows in epitaxial relationship with mica, with the [11–20] GaN direction parallel to [010] direction of mica. GaN layers could be easily detached from the substrate via the delamination of the upper layers of the mica itself, discarding the hypothesis of a van der Waals growth mode. Mixture of wurtzite (hexagonal) and z…

Comparison of different tillage systems in organic farming : effect of soil structure and organic matter repartition on soil micro-organisms and thei…
2009
Over the last decades, the surface traditionally ploughed has tended to decrease and replaced by shallow working tillage techniques without soil inversion, i.e., no tillage or reduced tillage with tines or discs. These techniques were mostly developed in conventional farming systems but nowadays they are also developed in organic farming systems. Nevertheless, these tillage techniques could generate crop nutrients deficiencies and a deterioration of soil structure, especially during the first years of their application. As the use of synthetic fertilizers is forbidden in organic farming, a decrease of the soil fertility could be very detrimental for crop growth. Indeed, soil micro-organisms…
Etude dynamique et structurale de biomolécules par microscopie à force atomique HS-AFM : application à une petite protéine de choc thermique sHsp
2012
The atomic force microscopy (AFM) gives access to the topography of organic and inorganic samplesat the atomic scale. The latest innovations offer the possiblity to understand the sample nano-mechanicalproperties (elasticity, adhesion...). Its feature set allows overcoming the demands of nanotechnology,both in the fields of physics, chemistry and biology.However, understanding biological processes require faster acquisitions for the atomic forcemicroscopy, less than a second per frame. As conventional equipment does not offer the possibility toovercome the constraint of time for dynamical studies, a prototype of high-speed atomic forcemicroscope (HS-AFM) was developed in partnership with Pr…
