    • Fiber Coil Resonator for Optical Gain 
      Laxton, Steven R; Bravo, Tyler E (2014-09-19)
      We have developed a cheap design for a device using 3D printed parts and simple motors to fabricate a rare earth metal doped fiber coil amplifier. We also have measurements for bending losses in a small coil and absorption ...
    • Fiber Optic Coil - Fabrication and Characterization 
      Barber, Louis William (2015-09-29)
      The goal is to develop a device which periodically couples a pump signal to a signal propagating within a fiber such that the highest amount of optical gain is observed. This idea is based off the proposition that using ...
    • Fresnel Lens Characterization for Solar Concentration Efficiency 
      Hallam, Mark; Harris, William (2014-09-17)
      Due to the inexpensive and light weight nature of Fresnel lenses, they are key components in many solar energy concentration systems. Thus, the ability to effectively characterize Fresnel lenses over large areas is essential ...
    • Intelligent Solar Mapping Tool 
      Adepoju, Adekunle (2014-09-22)
      The goal of this thesis is to develop an overall cost effective methodology for regional tracking and measuring solar patterns and intensities, for use in solar concentration. The idea is to create a system that is modular, ...
    • Light Fidelity Tracking System 
      Quinn, Ryan A; Sporkin, Michael; Aboujaoude, Amanda (2021-04-26)
      The proposed project will establish a baseline for a LiFi system through the implementation of a restorable stationary link to transmit an acceptable amount of power between a stationary base module and a mobile user module ...
    • Small-scale Concentrating Solar Thermal System Design 
      Mohamed El-Mahdy, Tasnim Ahmed (2014-09-21)
      In recent years, the growth of technology has caused the world energy consumption to skyrocket due to an increase in demand and an increase in available energy. Small renewable energy systems are often targeted for developing ...
