Specular reflectance of anodized 6061-T6 aluminum alloyStrauss, Jon January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Chemical Engineering / John Schlup / This study investigated the specular reflectance properties of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy anodized in accordance with military specification MIL-A-8625 as a function of both etch process time and anodization process potential. Both process parameters affect the specular reflectance characteristics when measured using a 660 nm, collimated diode laser source. The etch process time, when varied between 0.5 to 20 minutes, resulted in a decrease in specular reflectivity with increasing time. The anodization process potential was varied between 10 and 21 volts, with a 15 volt condition producing samples with the greatest specular reflectivity. Between the two parameters, the etch time had the greater effect. Additionally, the dependence of the incident beam angle on specular reflectivity was shown not to have a significant effect when compared to the etch process time and process potential.

On the Effect of Thin Film Growth Mechanisms on the Specular Reflectance of Aluminium Thin Films Deposited via Filtered Cathodic Vacuum ArcRincón-Llorente, G., Heras, I., Guillén Rodríguez, E., Schumann, E., Krause, M., Escobar-Galindo, R. 07 May 2019 (has links)
The optimisation of the specular reflectance of solar collectors is a key parameter to increase the global yield of concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. In this work, the influence of filtered cathodic vacuum arc deposition parameters, particularly working pressure and deposition time, on the specular and diffuse reflectance of aluminium thin films, was studied. Changes in specular reflectance, measured by ultraviolet–visible and near-infrared spectroscopy (UV-vis-NIR) spectrophotometry, were directly correlated with thin film elemental concentration depth profiles, obtained by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), and surface and cross-sectional morphologies as measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and profilometry. Finally, atomic force microscopy (AFM) provided information on the roughness and growth mechanism of the films. The two contributions to the total reflectance of the films, namely diffuse and specular reflectance, were found to be deeply influenced by deposition conditions. It was proven that working pressure and deposition time directly determine the predominant factor. Specular reflectance varied from 12 to 99.8% of the total reflectance for films grown at the same working pressure of 0.1 Pa and with different deposition times. This transformation could not be attributed to an oxidation of the films as stated by RBS, but was correlated with a progressive modification of the roughness, surface, and bulk morphology of the samples over the deposition time. Hence, the evolution in the final optical properties of the films is driven by different growth mechanisms and the resulting microstructures. In addition to the originally addressed CSP applications the potential of the developed aluminium films for other application rather than CSP, such as, for example, reference material for spectroscopic diffuse reflectance measurements, is also discussed.

Reconstructing specular objects with Image Based Rendering using Color CachingChhabra, Vikram 27 April 2001 (has links)
Various Image Based Rendering (IBR) techniques have been proposed to reconstruct scenes from its images. Voxel-based IBR algorithms reconstruct Lambertian scenes well, but fail for specular objects due to limitations of their consistency checks. We show that the conventional consistency techniques fail due to the large variation in reflected color of the surface for different viewing positions. We present a new consistency approach that can predict this variation in color and reconstruct specular objects present in the scene. We also present an evaluation of our technique by comparing it with three other consistency methods.

Evolution of IR Absorber for Integration in an IR Sensitive CO2 DetectorAshraf, Shakeel January 2011 (has links)
The maximum sensitivity of a thermal IR sensor can be available either by means of the sensor material, having its own absorbing properties, or by the deposition of an additional absorber structure on the detector surface. In this thesis, the theory of two absorption structures is discussed. The first is called the interferometric absorber structure. The second structure under investigation uses a lead selenide layer for the IR absorption. In the interferometric structure, a new epoxy material SU8-2002 was used as a dielectric medium. This material has a very low thermal conductivity of 0.3 W/mK, which makes it suitable for thermal detectors. The interferometric structure is based on three layers, a 40–60 Å thick Ti layer, a SU8–2002 layer with a thickness of 2000 Å thick and a 2000Å Al layer. Using standard cleanroom processing an interferometric structure was fabricated. Transfer matrix theory was used in order to simulate the interferometric structure and the lead selenide was fabricated by means of an argon-plasma sputtering process. Both fabricated samples were characterized through Fourier transfer infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy together with a specular reflectance accessory. The thicknesses of the added layers were measured using Atomic force microscopy (AFM) for both the interferometric and lead selenide structure. It was determined that by changing the reflective index value of the SU8-2002 from the reported value of 1.575 to about 2.40 that this provided a better agreement with the experimental results. The absorption results for the interferometric structure were determined to be approximately 82–98% for the wavelength region of 2-20µm at 30 degree. The PbSe absorption spectra showed 30%–50% absorption for the wavelength region 2.5 – 6.67μm.
