  1. 1. Blue Laser Source for Laser-Induced Fluorescence

    Author : Jesper Holm; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Second Harmonic Generation; Lasers; PPKTP; ALA; Tapered laser diodes; External cavity lasers; Laser-induced fluorescence; photodynamic therapy; mTHPC;

    Abstract : Laser-induced fluorescence is a clinical diagnostic tool, used for tumor demarcation and detection. The technique relies on the injection or topical application of a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer. This substance has the ability to be accumulated to higher concentrations in cancer cells than in normal cells. READ MORE

  2. 2. Electrical and Optical Properties of AlGaAs/GaAs Aperiodic Superlattices and Resonant Tunneling Diodes. Theory, Design and Applications

    Author : Simon Mang Cao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; exciton-assisted transport; miniband; high-speed quantum electronics; optical properties; ultrafast optoelectronics; field-induced transport; irregular superlattices; nanometer-scale heterostructures; laser diodes; resonant tunneling;

    Abstract : The objective of the work presented in this thesis is to study quantum transport and optical properties of aperiodic superlattices and resonant tunneling diodes using III-V semiconductor heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The study follows a procedure of theoretical modeling, computer-aided design and simulation, sample growth, and measurements. READ MORE

  3. 3. Long-Wavelength Vertical-Cavity Lasers : Materials and Device Analysis

    Author : Sebastian Mogg; KTH; []
    Keywords : VCL; VCSEL; vertical-cavity laser; semiconductor laser; long-wavelength; DBR; characterization; analysis; InP; InGaAs; quantum well; numerical modeling;

    Abstract : Vertical-cavity lasers (VCLs) are of great interest as lightsources for fiber-optic communication systems. Such deviceshave a number of advantages over traditional in-plane laserdiodes, including low power consumption, efficient fibercoupling, on-chip testability, as well as potential low-costfabrication and packaging.

  4. 4. Optical detection of joint position in zero gap laser beam welding

    Author : Morgan Nilsen; Anna-Karin Christiansson; Fredrik Sikström; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Laser beam welding; Optical sensors; Joint tracking; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents an experimental study on how to track zero gaps between metal sheets to be joined by laser beam butt welding. Automated laser beam welding is gaining interest due to its ability to produce narrow and deep welds giving limited heat input and therefore less distortions compared to other processes, such as arc-welding.
