Light Traps
In the February 1992 issue of the American Mathematical Monthly, J. E. Connett [1] asked whether it is possible to construct a 'light trap': a re ective-sided container with the property that a beam of light, shone into it from an appropriate direction, would be re ected inside it over and over again and never escape. Connett suggests that such a trap might be of value as a device to store ligh...
متن کاملComparison of Light Traps and Plankton Tows for Sampling Brachyuran Crab Larvae in an Alaskan Fjord
We compared the effectiveness of light traps and plankton tows for sampling brachyuran crab larvae in Bartlett Cove, Glacier Bay, Alaska, U.S.A. during three nights each in July and August 2001 and June, August, and September 2002. Proportions of species and stages were used to compare larvae caught by light traps and plankton tows. Absolute numbers of larvae are difficult to compare because of...
متن کاملFault Accommodation for Discrete Event Systems Using Petri Nets with Application to Traffic Light Control
This paper discusses the fault tolerant control problem for discrete event systems modeled by Petri nets. The fault is represented by the unobservable transitions. Firstly, an observer-based fault diagnosis method is proposed to estimate the marking with unknown initial markings and meanwhile, to diagnose the faulty behavior. Then, an adaptive fault tolerant controller is designed to maintain t...
متن کاملCapped colloids as light-mills in optical traps
Custom-designed colloidal particles in optical tweezers act as lightmills in a fluid. In particular, aqueous suspensions of capped silica colloids, in which half of the surface is covered with metal layers, are investigated. Due to their asymmetry, the capped colloids can act as rotators when exposed to intense laser fields. Particles of 4.7μm in diameter are observed rotating around the focus ...
متن کاملElectron traps in organic light-emitting diodes
This work presents the effects of electron traps in organic light-emitting diodes using a model which includes charge injection, transport, and recombination. For electron-only devices, the electron current is reduced by the traps for several orders of magnitude at fixed voltage, and the traps strongly increase the transient time. For bipolar devices, due to negative trapped charges, traps enha...
