1. Manipulation of Light with Transformation Optics
Sammanfattning : Transformation optics, a recently booming area, provides people a new approach to design optical devices for manipulating light. With transformation optics, a lot of novel optical devices are proposed, such as invisibility cloaks, optical wormholes, optical black holes, illusion devices. LÄS MER
2. Opening New Radio Windows and Bending Twisted Beams
Sammanfattning : In ground based high frequency (HF) radio pumping experiments, absorption of ordinary (O) mode pump waves energises the ionospheric plasma, producing optical emissions and other effects. Pump-induced or natural kilometre-scale field-aligned density depletions are believed to play a role in self-focussing phenomena such as the magnetic zenith (MZ) effect, i. LÄS MER
3. Adaptive Optics in Integrated Modeling of Telescopes
Sammanfattning : This thesis present the implementation of a modular adaptive optics (AO) model, as part of an integrated model of extremely large telescopes (ELTs). The purpose of the project has been to establish knowledge within integrated modeling, with emphasis on adaptive optics. LÄS MER
4. Fish Lenses : Anatomy and Optics
Sammanfattning : I have investigated some of the biological regulatory mechanisms governing the development of crystalline lenses. I used fish as model animals because they possess optically interesting lenses, while the geometrical simplicity of fish lenses allows for studies that are difficult or impossible with the lenses of other animals.

5. Spectral Mammography with X-Ray Optics and a Photon-Counting Detector
Sammanfattning : Early detection is vital to successfully treating breast cancer, and mammography screening is the most efficient and wide-spread method to reach this goal. Imaging low-contrast targets, while minimizing the radiation exposure to a large population is, however, a major challenge. LÄS MER
