Integrated photonic sensors are promising devices for various sensing applications due to their low cost, small size, and high sensitivities that can be reached. In this thesis, ring resonators and three-port Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) devices fabricated on Silicon-On-Insulator were compared for …

Richard Barbrook and Andy Cameron’s The Californian Ideology, originally published in 1995 by Mute magazine and the nettime mailinglist, is the iconic text of the first wave of Net criticism. The internet might have fundamentally changed in the last two decades, but their demolition of the neoliberal …

From Springer description: "We present the design considerations of an autonomous wireless sensor and discuss the fabrication and testing of the various components including the energy harvester, the active sensing devices and the power management and sensor interface circuits. A common materials platform, …

Dit boek beschrijft hoe Nederlandse ondernemers in Silicon Valley een bedrijf zijn begonnen. Waarom daar? Wat is er zo geweldig en anders aan ondernemen in dit walhalla van innovatie? Peter Ester en Arne Maas interviewden meer dan 20 Nederlandse ondernemers. Dit boek gaat over die ondernemers. Over de …

1e alinea column: Ik wil een paar dingen kwijt over singularity en de hele horde van buitengewoon slimme mensen die daar vorm aan geven. Aanleiding hiervoor is de speech van Peter Diamandis, cofounder en chairman of the Singularty University, Nasa Research Park, Silicon Valley, die hij vorige week in …

A new gravitation wave observatory is being built in Japan. This facility is a big Michelson interferometer where the mirrors and sensors will be made cryogenic down to 4 K. The problem is that: the heat cannot be transported out of the mirror by its surroundings because the whole system is in an ultra-high …

This report is written to guide the reader step by step through the process of developing a heating stage and a iron mapping device for a photoluminescence setup, used to measure the lifetime of silicon wafers in solar cells. Subject specific terms will be explained throughout the report. First, research …

De Twente Index geeft een beeld van de toestand van Twente in het afgelopen jaar. De index is zeven jaar geleden in het leven geroepen na een bezoek van regionale bestuurders aan Palo Alto (Silicon Valley) waar een dergelijke index veel inzicht verschafte in de veranderingen in de regionale economie. …
