Abstract:
introduced into the system or atom, the electrons seem to be stationary only transferring energy from one electron to the other and also because the mass and size of electron is small, it requires microscope to view it. So when one views a particular electron in the tube, we think we are viewing a particular electron but what we are seeing is the next electron and in reality what we are seeing is simply energy moving from one electron to the other inform of waves with a supposed speed of light (3.0x10*8). Since the speed of energy transfer from one electron to the other is fast enough (3.0x10*8), and electron being a point particle with a mass of 9.11x10'3, one could understand that the time it takes energy to pass through electron should be close to order of planck time and reaching 5 seconds more than dozens electrons has been penetrated. So because of the fastness of the light energy and size of electron(point), it shows that when we are looking at an electron we think we are looking at a particular one rather than more and this is so because electrons are fused together without a dot separation from each other and since electrons are fused, detection of a particular energy in electron seems difficult.
The difficulty in detecting a particular electron with energy on it occurs as follows:
1.The size of a single electron is too negligible to detect.
2.Since electrons appear to fuse together, detection of a particular electron with a fast moving energy(3.0x10*8) at an instant of time seems difficult because electrons are identical with each other and one must always conclude that the electrons aremoving but they do not.

Title: Optical characterization of ZnO, ZnSe and ZnSe/ZnO heterostructure
Biography:
Universite Tunis El Manar, Faculte des Sciences de Tunis,
Departement de Physique.
Abstract:
ZnSe layers were grown on ZnO substrates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition technique (MOCVD). ZnO, ZnSe and ZnO/ZnSe heterostructure were investigated by Raman spectroscopy and absorption. From the absorption spectra, we deduced the type II character of the ZnSe/ZnO heterostructure. Type II structures are very useful in photovoltaic conversion.

Title: Spectroscopic properties of fluorotellurite glasses modified by Bi2O3 and BaO

Abstract:
We have investigated the spectroscopic properties of Er3+-doped fluorotellurite glasses with the basic molar composition 75%TeO2-10%P2O5-10%ZnO-5%PbF2, modified by replacing 5%TeO2 by metal oxides. The thermal stability of fluorotellurite glasses was improved by the incorporation of other components in the glass matrix. Upon 980 nm excitation, intense luminescence emission around 1,5 mm was observed. It appears that the quantum efficiency of the 4I13/2 / 4I15/2 transition is quite high. The absorption and fluorescence spectra have been analyzed in terms of the standard Judd–Ofelt theory along with the photoluminescence decay of the 4I13/2 and 4S3/2 levels of the Er3+ ion. The absorption and emission spectra of the 4I15/2 ↔ 4I13/2 infrared transition have been analyzed within the McCumber theory to yield the peak emission cross-section and figure of merit (FOM) for the amplifier gain. A new simple method to calculate the mean transition energy of the McCumber approach as the arithmetic average of the barycenter wavelengths of absorption and emission spectra was presented.

Title: Ellipsometric studies of thin polymer layers forming part of organic photovoltaic cells
Biography:
Natalia Nosidlak has complited her PhD in 2013 from Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences. In 2014, for six months, she worked at the AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków at the Department of Electronics, then from October 2014 until today she works at the Institute of Physics at the Cracow University of Technology. She has published more than 10 papers in reputed journals.
Abstract:
In this work we present the results of the ellipsometric studies of thin films, that are part of the organic photovoltaic cell. The investigated cell, as the active layer, contains a traditional donor-acceptor structure in the form of a bulk-heterojunction (BHJ). The tested photovoltaic cell have the following structure: ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT+PQ/Al. The active layer is a blend of the P3HT (Poly (3-hexylthiophene-2-diyl)) and a low molecular weight compound from the pyrazoloquinolines group marked as PQ (1,3-phenyl-6-fluorine-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline). The ITO layer, act as the hole collecting electrode. The PEDOT:PSS (Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) layer has been used to smooth the ITO and facilitate the transport of holes. The presented layers have been tested using spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) method.
The paper presents the results of our investigation that determined the spectral dispersion of optical constants in a wavelength range of 190-1700 nm by using SE technique.
The appropriate theoretical models have been fitted to the results of the SE measurements, which allowed to determine the thickness of the layers and the dispersion relation of refractive and extinction indices.
Furthermore, we are showing here the temperature dependence of refractive indices of polythiophene films for a heating and a cooling process in a temperature range of 25-110°C. Additionally, thermo-optic coefficients and an optical gap were established and presented in the paper, followed by a discussion on the conditions of thermal stability of presented layers and reversibility issues in thermal processes.

Title: Quantification of breast cancerous tissue using high resolution full-field optical coherence tomography
Biography:
Kavita Dubey, Electrical and Instrumentation Engineering Department, Thapar University Patiala ,The e-corresponding should be addressed: *vishalsrivastava17@gamil.com
Abstract:
Conventional optical coherence tomography system is based on point-by-point scanning which consumes more time for large volume acquisition and also suffers poor resolution (10 µm). In this study, we used low coherence full field optical coherence tomography (FFOCT) system based on Mirau interferometer, which provide 3D micron level resolution. The system is used for the quantification of normal and malignant breast tissue. Transverse cross-section (en-face, or XY) images can be obtained in real time with better than 2-microm axial (Z) resolution and 1.0-microm transverse (XY) resolution. 10 tissue samples (5 normal, 5 malignant) were imaged with the FFOCT system and six features were extracted by analyzing the 40 FFOCT images, based on the differences in the morphology of the normal and malignant tissue samples. A k-nearest neighbor (k-nn) classifier was trained using 24 images, and sensitivity of 91.6 % and specificity of 83.33 % was obtained. The pathological structures were distinguished from the normal structure. The principle, experimental details and results for breast cancer analysis, and will be later presented.

Abstract:
It is well known that the Lamb dip characterizing the emitted line shape at the output of a low gain gas laser, can be used as a good frequency standard. It is for this reason that it continues to arouse the interest of scientists in view of the different applications that it may have, particularly in the spectral characterization of materials, spectroscopy, plasma physics and metrology. However, the line shape is generally asymmetrical and, in this case, the frequency of the Lamb dip does not coincide with the resonant frequency of the laser. It is essential, for a good standard, that these two frequencies . When this is the case, the line shape is symmetrical. For this, several models of laser cavities, called "stabilized cavities", have been proposed in the literature. These models are supposed to give rise to symmetrical lineshapes.
In this work, we revisit some of these models in order to highlight the limit of their validity and then, through an appropriate choice of the geometry of the cavity, a "stabilized" cavity model giving rise to a symmetrical lineshape will be proposed. such a cavity can serve as a good standard of frequencies and lengths.

Title: Broadband tunable SESAM-based mode-locked fiber laser source for parametric generation in photonic crystal fiber (PCF) applied to CARS microscopy.
Biography:
Inaki Aporta Litago received the degree in telecommunication engineering from the University of Cantabria, Spain, in 2014. Since then, he has been working toward the Ph.D. degree at the Photonics Engineering Group (GIF), Department of electronic Technology Industrial Automation and System Engineering. His main research is on Fiber lasers: random distributed feedback lasers, ultrafast pulsed lasers and its applications.
Abstract:
A broadband tunable pulsed fiber laser for parametric generation in PCF applied to CARS microscopy is presented. The Fig.1 shows the experimental set-up of the ytterbium-based oscillator. The laser (seed) emitts a stable pulsed signal in a 40 nm range as is depicted in Fig. 2, when the pump reaches the threshold of 73 mW. This source has an output power which varies between 1.5 to 3.5 mW (depending on the wavelength emission), a repetition rate of 3.5 MHz, a 3-dB spectral width of 80 pm and a pulse duration of 25 ps. Furthermore, the laser structure allows self-started mode-locking at any wavelength in the whole tuning range and the continous tunability of the wavelength emission with no need of polarization control. Due to the source capability of being tuned with a precision of 0.01 nm and that is free of polarization control thanks to the use of a slow-axis in-line polarizer, the laser source becomes ideal for optical parametric generation in PCF through Four-Wave Mixing (FWM). This non-linear process allows generating the Anti-Stokes component, which implies a frequency difference with the seed that matches with a concrete CARS resonance. This way, owing to the wavelength tunability of the source, the desired frequency difference could be precisely adjusted to match the CARS resonance of interest. Moreover, this laser structre is well-suited for communication, sensing and non-linear applications
