Three-dimensional Texturing Using Lattices
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a way to perform realistic three-dimensional texturing of ray-traced objects with irregular surfaces. Such texturing has been done in the past with texture mapping, particle systems, or volumetric methods. We propose an alternative to these called a lattice. Lattices work as fast but inexact ray tracers. As long as lattices are used for small objects, though, the inexactness doesn’t show on the scale of the display, and the result is acceptable. The paper shows how lattices can be integrated with a more traditional ray tracer, with several examples. Time and memory space considerations are major constraints on lattices, preventing widespread practical application at the present time. The paper discusses these limitations and how they might be reduced.

Notes on some Distance-Based Invariants for 2-Dimensional Square and Comb Lattices
We present explicit formulae for the eccentric connectivity index and Wiener index of 2-dimensional square and comb lattices with open ends. The formulae for these indices of 2-dimensional square lattices with ends closed at themselves are also derived. The index for closed ends case divided by the same index for open ends case in the limit N →&infin defines a novel quantity we call compression...

We derived explicit formulae for the eccentric connectivity index and Wiener index of 2-dimensional square-octagonal TUC4C8(R) lattices with open and closed ends. New compression factors for both indices are also computed in the limit N-->∞.
متن کاملUsing colloidal lithography to fabricate and optimize sub-wavelength pyramidal and honeycomb structures in solar cells.
The external quantum efficiency of solar cells can be improved by using texturing pyramid- and honeycomb-like structures with minimum reflection. In this study, we investigated the reflection properties of texturing structures through rigorous coupled-wave analysis and the three-dimensional finite-difference time domains (FDTD) method to analyze close-packed texturing structures. We also demons...
