This book describes the current state of the art in integrated ring resonators, covering more than two decades in the development of this exciting device. It discusses in depth one of the most fascinating and versatile integrated optical filters, providing readers with a panoramic view spanning from design and simulation to implementation in various material systems. Written by authors with extensive experience in both academia and industry, this second edition offers a much-needed, major update as interest in integrated ring resonators undergoes a global revival. The new edition includes a comprehensive technological update, and a timely discussion of recent advances in new application areas, such as optofluidics and microfluidics, telecom operations and biosensors. This aptly named compendium is the ideal guide for researchers and engineers looking to review the field as a whole while exploring several of its possible and exciting future trajectories.
Das forschungsgetriebene Lehrformat "Projektorientiertes Lernen" wird im Masterprogramm der Fakultät Angewandte Chemie der Hochschule Reutlingen von uns seit nunmehr einer Dekade eingesetzt und stetig weiter entwickelt. Dieses Format hat sich besonders bewährt, um methodische und fachliche Kompetenzen nachhaltig zu vermitteln. Es war uns ein Anliegen, auch anderen an der praxisorientierten Ausgestaltung der Lehre Interessierten unsere Erfahrungen mitzuteilen und unsere Vorgehensweise konkret vorzustellen. Dazu haben wir unsere bisher verwendeten Dokumente und Veröffentlichungen zu diesem Thema redigiert und stellen sie in dem vorliegenden Buch vor. In diesem von uns als "Kurshandbuch" für Anwender gedachten Werk finden sich unsere über Jahre gesammelten Erfahrungen mit der Organisation eines solchen Lehr- und Lernformats.
Optofluidics
(2019)
This introduction into the multidisciplinary area of optofluidics offers the necessary foundations in photonics, polymer physics and process analytics to students, engineers and researchers to enter the field. All basic ingredients of a polymer-based platform as a foundation for quick and compact solutions for chemical, biological and medical sensing and manipulation are developed.
This book investigates and highlights the most critical challenges the pharmaceutical industry faces in an increasingly competitive environment of inflationary R&D investments and tightening cost control pressures. The authors present three sources of pharmaceutical innovation: new management methods in the drug development pipeline; new technologies as enablers for cutting-edge R&D; and new forms of cooperation and internationalization, such as open innovation in the early phases of R&D. New models and methods are illustrated with cases from Europe, the US, and Asia. This third fully revised edition was expanded to reflect the latest updates in open and collaborative innovation, the greater strategic importance of venture capital and early stage investments, and the new range of emerging technologies now being put to use in pharmaceutical innovation.
This practical guide for advanced students and decision-makers in the pharma and biotech industry presents key success factors in R&D along with value creators in pharmaceutical innovation. A team of editors and authors with extensive experience in academia and industry and at some of the most prestigious business schools in Europe discusses in detail the innovation process in pharma as well as common and new research and innovation strategies. In doing so, they cover collaboration and partnerships, open innovation, biopharmaceuticals, translational medicine, good manufacturing practice, regulatory affairs, and portfolio management. Each chapter covers controversial aspects of recent developments in the pharmaceutical industry, with the aim of stimulating productive debates on the most effective and efficient innovation processes. A must-have for young professionals and MBA students preparing to enter R&D in pharma or biotech as well as for students on a combined BA/biomedical and natural sciences program.
Decorative laminates are the most important class of surface-finished engineered wood products. However, while there are numerous scientific publications published dealing with the technology of wood, wood-based products and also liquid coating systems, there is practically no scientific research work available in the field of paper-based laminates. In view of an ever increasing global competition it is time to systematically apply and pursue scientific approaches in this field. The present work is based on a knowledge-based manufacturing paradigm. The application of scientific methodology (e.g. instrumental analysis, process analytics, design of experiments, chemometrics, process modeling) to the preparation of decorative laminates covering the whole process chain from resin synthesis to paper impregnation and to final laminate should enable a targeted design of material functionality.
