    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

    A Unified Shell model for Buoyancy-Driven Turbulence

    No full text
    We construct a unified shell model for stably stratified and convective turbulence. Shell model simulation of stably stratified flow in turbulent regime exhibit Bolgiano-Obukhbov (BO) scaling in which the kinetic energy spectrum varies as k11/5k^{-11/5}. However, simulation of convective turbulence shows Kolmogorov's spectrum. These results are consistent with the direct numerical simulations of Kumar {\em et al.} [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 90}, 023016 (2014)]. We also observe a dual scaling (k11/5k^{-11/5} and k5/3k^{-5/3}) for a limited range of parameters in stably stratified flow

    Generated holographic stereograms in photorefractive polymer

    No full text
    Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, Program in Media Arts and Sciences, 2012.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 77-80).This thesis aims to assess the feasibility of an updatable three-dimensional display based on the direct fringe writing of computer-generated holographic gratings into a novel photorefractive polymer. The photorefractive polymer in question has been developed by Nitto Denko Technical Corporation and has many attractive properties for the 3-D display application, including long image persistence, rapid erasure, high diffraction efficiency, and large area; however, current holographic display systems based around its use involve interference methods that complicate their optical and computational architectures. The direct fringe writing architecture under question is poised as a simplifying and enhancing alternative to previous demonstrations of updatable holographic displays in photorefractive polymeric materials based around such conventional interference-based holographic stereogram techniques. In addition to simplifying optical architectures, direct fringe writing can allow for complete control of recorded hologram characteristics; interference fringes can be computed to simulate any arbitrary reference beam geometry and wavefront curvature. The system concept - comprised of fringe pattern generation on computer, fringe pattern transfer from SLM to photorefractive polymer, and spatial multiplexing for large-image generation - reintroduces accommodation cues to the resulting holographic images and represents a reduction of system footprint, complexity, and cost relative to the current interference-based systems. The adaptation of the Diffraction Specific Coherent Panoramagram fringe computation method - originally developed to drive AOM-based holographic displays at video rates while preserving all depth cues, including accommodation - to the current display architecture is presented and methods for direct fringe transfer from SLM to photorefractive polymer are depicted. Such methods for direct fringe writing are explored in simulation and experiment. Theoretical arguments for system performance are formulated in the context of a wave optics-based system analysis. Preliminary results of horizontal parallax-only images on this display are presented and directions for performance improvements and system extensions are explored.by Sundeep Jolly.S.M

    A commercial approach towards fabrication of bulk and nano phosphors converted highly-efficient white LEDs

    No full text
    Herein, we report a strategy to synthesize a highly efficient yellow light emitting Y3−xAl5O12:Cex (x = 0.03 to 0.3) based bulk as well as nano (rod-shaped) phosphors, which are the main component of solid state white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). The as-synthesized phosphors were well characterized by several experimental techniques related to material characterization and spectroscopy. The bulk and nano phosphors emit with maximum photoluminescence intensities at 549 and 530 nm, respectively, upon excitation at a wavelength of 468 nm. These phosphors exhibit higher photoluminescence intensity as compared to commercially available bulk phosphors coated on WLED strips. Moreover, the integration of commercially available InGaN blue LED strips with the synthesized bulk and nano phosphors demonstrates better CIE coordinates and lower colour temperature with high brightness (&gt;81% quantum yield) compared to commercially available WLED-based strips, lanterns and torches. These highly efficient light-emitting phosphors are a feasible candidate for potential use in commercial WLED applications

    Holographic augmented reality : towards near-to-eye electroholography via guided wave acousto-optics

    Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, Program in Media Arts and Sciences, 2019Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 121-128).Near-to-eye displays act to directly project imagery into a viewer's eye and can range in instantiation from extremely simple (such as an optical viewfinder) to more complex immersive displays for applications in virtual and augmented reality. Many current schemes for near-to-eye display employ stereoscopic techniques; however, such instantiations do not consistently present correct accommodation and vergence cues to the viewer, limiting their potential for seamless, comfortable augmented reality applications. Recent techniques based around light-field display methods show promise in the delivery of consistent depth cues although their applicability in presenting scenery with jointly high spatial and angular resolution is limited.Electroholographic displays have been shown to provide the highest degree of visual realism and consistency amongst cues to depth relative to all competing technologies for 3-D display, and several recent instantiations based around pixelated spatial light modulators have shown their utility for near-to-eye display applications. However, constraints on available space-bandwidth product in such pixelated modulators limit the usable system dtendue, resulting in reduced eyebox or field of view. In contrast, waveguide spatial light modulators offer the potential for displays with extremely high space-bandwidth product, compact form factors, and full-color operation via frequency-division multiplexing. This dissertation aims to assess the feasibility of waveguide-based electroholography for near-to-eye augmented reality display.In particular, such feasibility is assessed through (i) a static set of near-to- eye holograms computed via iterative Fresnel domain techniques and fabricated via grayscale electron-beam lithography and(2) the design and analysis of a fully monolithic photonic platform for transparent, flat-panel holographic display requiring no supporting optics and implemented via anisotropic leaky-mode coupling in conjunction with integrated Bragg-regime diffractive combiner optics in lithium niobate. Furthermore, this dissertation presents a fabrication modality for multiscale, transparent, flat-panel holographic video displays based around femtosecond direct laser writing. Methods for and results in the integration of anisotropic waveguides, volume Bragg reflection holograms, and surface acoustic wave transducers in a lithium niobate substrate are depicted.by Sundeep Jolly.Ph.
