▼ Fundamental particles are always observed to carry charges which are integral multiples of one-third charge of electron, e /3. While this is a well-established experimental fact, the theoretical understanding for the charge quantization phenomenon is lacking. On the other hand, there exist numerous theoretical models that naturally allow for existence of particles with fractional electromagnetic charge. These particles, if existing, hint towards existence of physics beyond the standard model. Multiple high energy, optical, cosmological and astrophysical considerations restrict the allowable mass-charge parameter space for these fractional charges. Still, a huge unexplored region remains. The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS-II), located at Soudan mines in northern Minnesota, employs germanium and silicon crystals to perform direct searches for a leading candidate to dark matter called Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). Alternately, the low detection threshold allows search for fractional electromagnetic-charged particles, or Lightly Ionizing Particles (LIPs), moving at relativistic speed. Background rejection is obtained by requiring that the magnitude and location of energy deposited in each detector be consistent with corresponding “signatures” resulting from the passage of a fractionally charged particle. In this dissertation, the CDMS-II data is analyzed to search for LIPs, with an expected background of 0.078±0.078 events. No candidate events are observed, allowing exclusion of new parameter space for charges between e /6 and e /200. With primary aim to increase sensitivity to detect WIMPs, it is necessary to expand the detector count and mass by more than two orders of magnitude over CDMS-II. This also increases sensitivity to detect LIPs. It becomes imperative to obtain repeatability in the detection sensor quality over multiple detectors. In this dissertation, we also describe the improvements and process flow optimizations implemented to obtain higher yield in fabrication of useful detectors with homogeneous sensor properties within each detector and among different batches. It also allows for reduction in fabrication time, cost and removal of avoidable cost-intensive steps like ion-implantation. Most important is the control in obtaining tungsten thin film with desired superconducting transition temperature and improvements in photolithographic steps for sensor fabrication.

La compression directe est l’une des méthodes de fabrication de comprimés les plus communes et économiques de l’industrie pharmaceutique. Cependant, l’utilisation de ce procédé requiert souvent un changement de formulation. Puisque le séné, un extrait naturel de plante, n’est pas un matériel compressible, des méthodologies de conception d’expériences et de qualité par conception ont été utilisées pour développer une formulation convenable pour la compression directe des comprimés de séné. Le nouveau produit formulé a démontré plusieurs bénéfices reliés au temps de fabrication, aux besoins en main d’œuvre et aux besoins en machineries. De plus, la stabilité du produit, emballé dans des bouteilles de polyéthylène exposées à des conditions extrêmes pendant six mois, a démontré des résultats conformes aux limites spécifiées à l’interne. Cependant, il reste quelques défis à relever concernant la détermination de la vitesse de fabrication à grande échelle et de la stabilité du produit à long terme. Néanmoins, l’implémentation du procédé de compression directe démontre suffisamment de bénéfices à long terme pour remplacer le procédé courant de granulation humide.

Direct compression is becoming one of the most common and economical method of tablets manufacturing in the pharmaceutical industry. However, the feasibility of this process often results in formulation change. Since senna powder, a natural plant extract, is not a compressible material, methodologies such as Design of Experiments (DOE) and Quality by Design (QbD) were used in this project to develop a suitable formulation for the direct compression process of senna tablets. The newly formulated product demonstrated benefits with regards to process time, manpower and machinery requirements. Furthermore, product stability in high density polyethylene bottles exposed to accelerated conditions over a six months period, demonstrated results that conforms to the limits specified in-house. Nevertheless, a few challenges remain in terms of establishing the process speed in large scale manufacturing and establishing the product shelf life upon completion of long term stability studies. In spite of these challenges, implementing the direct compression process to manufacture senna tablets instead of continuing with the wet granulation process demonstrated sufficient benefits to adopt this new process for the long run.

Recent advances in micro fabrication technology have resulted in proliferation of microscale mechanical devices, most of which are applied in the biomedical field and clinical diagnostics. One of the most promising technology platform is microflow cytometry, which requires biological cells to be focused in single file and presented in front of a detection system. The heart of a microflow cytometer is the generation of a sample stream with a diameter of the order of the particles to be measured. In order to be successfully analysed and to reduce measurement errors, particles should be focused in all three dimensions. Limitation in fabrication capability at reduced scales has resulted in adapting the macroscopic approach to a more simplified planar one. In recent years, a number of three dimensional flow focusing devices have been documented, but the "perfect" system still has to come. The primary objective of this research thesis is to demonstrate that a microdevice for 3D hydrodynamic focusing can be fabricated at a dimension achievable from cost effective CNC manufacture. In order to do so, two devices of same design but different scale have been fabricated. CFD and confocal experiments demonstrated the ability of the proposed design to fully control size and dimension of the focused stream. The sample stream diameter were ten to twenty times smaller than the channel dimensions. Horizontal and vertical hydrodynamic focusing can be obtained independently and the flow remains stable until Re=30, which is six times higher than the appropriate operating condition of previously presented devices. The injection of microbeads proved that a stable cells/particles line-up can be achieved with 90% efficiency. The proposed device was also successfully employed with biological cells. A simple approximation of the theoretical model to predict the size of the focused stream is also presented. An automated fluorescence-based optical counting technique was integrated with the system and evaluated using two different cell lines. This method compares favorably to the Trypan blue exclusion assay and to the visual count of the cells from the digital picture. In order to further improve the efficiency of the technique, the proposed device was employed to vertically focus the cells in a narrow region in the centre of the channel and therefore reduce fluorescence variability. Cell aggregation and sedimentation into the cell dispensing apparatus was reduced without reducing cell viability by developing a novel magnetic stirrer

Le feu peut causer de graves dégâts matériels et humains. Par conséquent, il est important de mettre au point de nouvelles protections contre le feu. Pour concevoir de nouveaux systèmes toujours plus efficaces, une approche scientifique innovante a été envisagée au sein de cette thèse. Elle consiste à combiner différents concepts et matériaux, tout en jouant sur leur design plutôt que leur formulation pour atteindre de meilleures propriétés de protection thermique. Ainsi, deux nouveaux multi-matériaux de protection contre le feu ont été élaborés, visant dans un cas à limiter la réaction au feu, et dans l’autre cas à augmenter la résistance au feu d’un substrat. Dans une première partie, la fabrication additive s’est révélée être un procédé de choix pour concevoir le matériau ayant une faible réaction au feu. Un design à structure sandwich original inspiré du vivant (nid d’abeille) a été conçu, imprimé en 3D, et optimisé par la combinaison de nombreux concepts (système inhibiteur d’oxygène, barrière physique, revêtement basse émissivité). Grâce à cette association de design et concepts, le multi-matériau, exposé à un flux de chaleur radiatif externe de 50 kW/m2 basé sur la norme ISO 13927 du cône calorimètre, a montré une très faible réaction au feu avec notamment une rapide extinction de flamme et un faible dégagement de chaleur total (inférieur à 10 kW/m2), témoignant de son excellente efficacité. Dans une seconde partie, un système faisant office de barrière thermique a été développé afin de protéger un substrat face à une exposition au feu de 116 kW/m2 (test « burn-through » représentatif du standard aéronautique ISO2685). Cette barrière, combinant les phénomènes d’intumescence et de délamination au sein d’un même design, a permis de réduire considérablement la propagation de la chaleur au sein du système. Le substrat a ainsi été protégé, avec une température en face arrière restant inférieure à 250°C après plus de 15 minutes d’exposition au feu. L’efficacité de ce système optimisé a ensuite été validée sur d’autres substrats. Cette étude prouve que la modification du design de divers matériaux constitue une voie prometteuse pour améliorer la performance des systèmes de protection contre le feu.

Fire can cause severe material damage as well as human casualties. The development of new fire protective systems is thus of prime importance. In order to conceive new and more efficient systems, an innovative scientific approach has been considered within this PhD work. It consists in combining various concepts and materials while changing their design rather than their chemistry to achieve superior fire protection. In this way, two novel fireproofing multi-materials were developed and aimed on the one hand to limit the reaction to fire, and on the other hand to increase the fire resistance of a substrate. In the first part, additive manufacturing was selected as a process of choice for designing a material with a low reaction to fire. An original bio-inspired sandwich design (honeycomb-like structure) was elaborated,…

Carbon is the most versatile element in the periodic table, owing to the type, strength and number of bonds it can form with many different elements. The diversity of bonds and their corresponding geometries enable the existence of structural isomers, geometric isomers and enantiomers. Carbon nanostructures have attracted a great deal of interest due to the discovery of fullerenes. Widely recognized as the quintessential nanomaterial, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have already compiled an impressive list of superlatives since their discovery in 1991 by Sumio Iijima. The present study involves hydrothermal synthesis of Si-MCM-41, Cr-MCM-41, Fe-MCM-41, Zn-MCM-41 and Zn-Fe-MCM-41 molecular sieves with Si/M ratios of 50, 75, 100 and 125, where M = Cr, Fe, Zn and Zn-Fe. The transition metals such as Fe, Co, Mn, Ni, Ti, Ru and Pd were loaded with 0.2 wt. % individually over Cr-MCM-41 by wet impregnation method. The growth of SWCNTs or MWCNTs was carried out using the above synthesized catalytic materials by CVD method using acetylene as carbon precursor. In general, neat epoxy resins pose some major disadvantages such as low peel, low impact and tensile strength at elevated temperatures and also low chemical resistance. The thermo-mechanical properties of the neat epoxy resin have been improved by the addition of MWCNTs or f-MWCNTs. The fabricated epoxy resins with MWCNTs and f-MWCNTs were compared with one another to study the dispersion behaviour. The experimental research work reveals that the above said metal containing mesoporous MCM-41 and KIT-6 materials can be a convenient eco-friendly alternative to all other catalyst for the formation of SWCNTs and MWCNTs with high quality and large quantity. Especially, metal containing mesoporous KIT-6 materials were suitable candidate for the large scale production of well graphitized MWCNTs. Fabricated nanocomposites by using MWCNTs/f-MWCNTs exhibited good thermo-mechanical properties which might be a good opening for new avenues to various industrial applications. newline

▼ MR fluids are smart materials that respond to a magnetic field by changing their rheological properties. This change in the yield shear stress of MR fluids is proportional to the magnetic field applied. Dampers with MR fluid as the working fluid have a damping response comparable to conventional synthetic oil dampers. The smart nature of MR fluid enables real time semi-active control of damping, which makes them particularly suitable for motorcycle steering. This project involves the study of MR fluid, its application as a shock absorbing device and the total design and manufacture of an MR fluid steering damper for a motorcycle. Motorcycle steering and the causes of erratic steering motions are investigated and a comparison between a manually adjustment damper and the proposed MR damper are discussed. The design principles are discussed and applied to optimize the design of the MR valve using finite element analysis. A full chapter is dedicated to a total bottom-up design of an MR fluid steering damper, while the chapter on design covers every aspect of the design, including the concept, the selection of material and components, design embodiment, the design of structural members, and technical production drawings. The testing stage enabled the working range and functionality of the completed damper to be established and documented, and served to investigate any shortcomings in the design and lay the groundwork for further improvement in areas such as the damping force range, optimization of the MR valve, size and weight reduction, and reliability. Finally, the project was concluded on an understanding that this design can be used as a foundation for future work with the aim of a commercial damper design that is effective (as an controllable damper in semi-active suspension systems), lightweight, aesthetically appealing, reliable, and at the same time be commercially viable by having a low production cost.

▼ The investigation into the encapsulation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was undertaken. This was performed by three polymerisation techniques including: grafting PMMA synthesised by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerisation to AuNPs, grafting PMMA synthesised by atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP) from the surface of functionalised AuNPs and by encapsulation of AuNPs within PMMA latexes produced through photo-initiated oil-in-water (o/w) miniemulsion polymerisation. The grafting of RAFT PMMA to AuNPs was performed by the addition of the RAFT functionalised PMMA to citrate stabilised AuNPs. This was conducted with a range of PMMA of varying molecular weight distribution (MWD) as either the dithioester or thiol end-group functionalities. The RAFT PMMA polymers were characterised by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis), Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR), Fourier transform Raman (FT-Raman) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopies. The attachment of PMMA to AuNPs showed a tendency for AuNPs to associate with the PMMA structures formed, though significant aggregation occurred. Interestingly, thiol functionalised end-group PMMA showed very little aggregation of AuNPs. The spherical polymer-AuNP structures did not vary in size with variations in PMMA MWD. The PMMA-AuNP structures were characterised using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transition electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) and UV-vis spectroscopy. The surface confined ATRP grafting of PMMA from initiator functionalised AuNPs was polymerised in both homogeneous and heterogeneous media. 11,11’- dithiobis[1-(2-bromo-2-methylpropionyloxy)undecane] (DSBr) was used as the surface-confined initiator and was synthesised in a three step procedure from mercaptoundecanol (MUD). All compounds were characterised by 1H NMR, FTIR-ATR and Raman spectroscopies. The grafting in homogeneous media resulted in amorphous PMMA with significant AuNP aggregation. Individually grafted AuNPs were difficult to separate and characterise, though SEM, TEM, EDAX and UV-vis spectroscopy was used. The heterogeneous polymerisation did not produce grafted AuNPs as characterised by SEM and EDAX. The encapsulation of AuNPs within PMMA latexes through the process of photoinitiated miniemulsion polymerisation was successfully achieved. Initially, photoinitiated miniemulsion polymerisation was conducted as a viable low temperature method of miniemulsion initiation. This proved successful producing a stable PMMA with good conversion efficiency and narrow particle size distribution (PSD). This is the first report of such a system. The photo-initiated technique was further optimised and AuNPs were included into the miniemulsion. AuNP encapsulation was very effective, producing reproducible AuNP encapsulated PMMA latexes. Again, this is the first reported case of this. The latexes were characterised by TEM, SEM, GPC,…

▼ Graphene is a new two-dimensional (2D) material with unique electrical transport, optical and mechanical properties. However, monolayer graphene (MLG) is a gapless semiconductor, which limits its relevance for transistor applications where a large on/off ratio of the current is required. In this work the investigation of transport properties of few-layer graphene (FLG) is presented. These 2D electronic systems offer a novel solution to the problem concerned the absence of an energy gap in single layer graphene, since they exhibit an electric field and stacking-dependent band gap in the energy dispersion. Thus far, a clear observation of a band-gap in multilayer graphene (e.g. Bernal-stacked bilayers) in transport measurements was hindered by the presence of disorder. Here we develop a reliable and effective method of fabrication of high-quality suspended double-gated graphene devices, which are of crucial importance for probing the low energy dispersion of few-layer graphene. The current annealing technique, described in details, improves transport characteristics like carrier mobility, which is typically higher than ∼ 104 cm2/Vs for our multilayer devices. Electrical transport experiments on suspended dual-gated ABC-stacked trilayer are performed. We report the direct evidence of the opening of a tunable band-gap with an external perpendicular electric field, ranging from 0 meV up to 5.2 meV for an electric field of 117 mV/nm. Thermally activated transport is observed in these samples over the temperature range 0.5 - 80 K. The values of energy gap extracted from both temperature dependence of minimum conductivity measurements and non-linear I –V characteristics correlate well. Our experimental results are in a good agreement with theoretical approximation, based on self-consistent tight-binding calculations. The high quality of our ABC trilayer samples is also demonstrated by a particularly high on/off ratio of the current (250 at applied electrical displacement as low as 80 mV/nm), which makes these devices promising for future semiconductor electronics. FLG samples with reduced disorder allow us to observe quantum Hall effect (QHE) at magnetic field as low as 500 mT. We present the first study of electric field- induced new QH states in ABC trilayer graphene (TLG). The transitions between spin-polarized and valley polarized phases of the sample at the charge neutrality point are investigated. Resolved novel broken symmetry states along with observed Lifshitz transition in rhombohedral TLG display exciting phenomena attributed to rich physics in these interactive electronic systems.

▼ Malgré une composition très similaire à celle d’un lait écrémé, le babeurre présente une aptitude à la coagulation par la présure inférieure ce qui limite son utilisation en fromagerie. L’étape d’agrégation des micelles de caséine par la présure est notamment gouvernée par des interactions hydrophobes. Or, les composantes issues de la membrane du globule gras du lait (MFGM), retrouvées dans le babeurre, sont reconnues pour leurs propriétés tensioactives. Par conséquent, elles pourraient interférer dans le processus de coagulation du lait. Dans le cadre des travaux de cette thèse, les constituants du babeurre ont été séparés par centrifugation en différentes fractions. La composition de ces fractions a été analysée et leur impact sur la coagulation des micelles de caséines par la présure a été mesuré. Une attention particulière a été portée à la phase d’agrégation des micelles de caséine. Dans le premier travail présenté, la phase soluble du babeurre a été séparée en trois fractions différenciées par leur contenu en protéines et en matières grasses. L’étude de ces trois fractions a permis de conclure que des particules, probablement constituées de fins globules de gras et des fragments membranaires de densité élevée, nuisent à l’agrégation et à la coagulation des micelles de caséine emprésurées. La présence de caséine micellaire résiduelle dans cette phase soluble a toutefois limité l’interprétation de certains résultats. Par conséquent, pour l’étude présentée au chapitre suivant, le citrate de sodium a été utilisé afin de dissocier cette caséine. Des fragments de MFGM ont ensuite été récupérés par ultracentrifugation(100 000 x g). Contrairement aux composantes précédemment isolées, leur impact sur le processus d’agrégation des micelles de caséine emprésurées a été peu important, bien qu’un effet négatif ait été observé sur la coagulation. D’autres expérimentations seront donc nécessaires afin de mieux comprendre le mécanisme d’interférence à la coagulation de ces composantes. En marge de ces études, les propriétés fromagères d’un babeurre ont été comparées à celles d’un concentré de protéines du lactosérum dénaturé (WPC-D). Comparativement à cet ingrédient largement utilisé en fromagerie industrielle, le babeurre utilisé a permis l’obtention de gels plus fermes, plus rapidement, et a limité la rétention d’humidité dans les fromages. La récupération des protéines et des lipides dans les caillés a également été supérieure en présence de babeurre que du WPC-D. L’impact des fractions solubles de ces ingrédients a été évalué et s’est révélé négligeable. Ceci suggère que, dans cette étude, les effets observés du babeurre sont principalement attribuables à son contenu en caséine. La dénaturation thermique du babeurre, du concentré de protéines du lactosérum (WPC) ou d’une combinaison de ces deux produits en condition acide (pH 4.6) a également été testée et a permis d’accroître la rétention protéique dans les fromages, mais le babeurre utilisé seul (traité thermiquement ou non) demeure l’ingrédient permettant la meilleure… Advisors/Committee Members: Pouliot, Yves, Britten, Michel.

▼ Current complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies currently suffer drawbacks such as increased power consumption and device variability with scaling as well as volatility. In order to further advance computation technologies in the future, new and alternative devices are being explored to overcome these limitations. One promising approach is spintronic devices in which information is stored and computed based on the spin of electrons rather than the absence or presence of charge such as in CMOS. Spintronics offers many possible benefits including fast operational speed, low power consumption, and nonvolatility. This dissertation explores methods of generating spin polarized currents for the operation of logic devices and the fabrication of these devices for logic applications. The first device explored is a non-local lateral spin valve which can be used to generate a pure spin current and is the basic building block for the concept of all-spin logic. A unique top-down fabrication approach for lateral spin valves is created and demonstrated. Sub 100nm Co nanopillar devices are fabricated on a Cu channel using a top down approach that allows the entire material stack to be deposited initially under vacuum as opposed to devices fabricated using shadow beam lithography or lift-off techniques for ferromagnetic strips. A non-local signal is measured in these devices which indicates the top-down approach can successfully be used for integration of these devices. This demonstration is essential for these devices to be successfully implemented and scaled in computer applications at the industrial level. . In the second part of the dissertation, my research on spin Hall effect devices and the application of these devices for a spin Hall majority gate logic device are presented. The spin Hall effect is explored in bulk perpendicular TbFeCo/Ta devices which lays the groundwork for the following experiments. Then, a composite spin Hall structure is developed in order to switch perpendicular magnetization using the spin Hall effect without the need for an externally applied field. To demonstrate the ability to tune the material properties of a spin Hall channel, studies are also presented on a variety of multilayer spin Hall devices. Last, a three-input MTJ device is proposed for a spin orbit torque combined with spin transfer torque majority gate. Three MTJ devices are fabricated on Ta and three distinct switching states are shown corresponding to switching of the individual input elements. Additionally, simulation work is presented to verify the concept of the majority gate.

▼ The use of optical interconnects is a promising solution to the increasing demand for high speed mass data transmission used in integrated circuits as well as device to device data transfer applications. For the purpose, low cost polymer waveguides are a popular choice for routing signal between devices due to their compatibility with printed circuit boards. In optical interconnect, coupling from an external light source to such waveguides is a critical step, thus a variety of couplers have been investigated such as grating based couplers [1,2], evanescent couplers [3], and embedded mirrors [4–6]. These couplers are inherently micro-optical components which require fast and scalable fabrication for mass production with optical quality surfaces/structures. Low NA laser direct writing has been used for fast fabrication of structures such as gratings and Fresnel lenses using a linear laser direct writing scheme, though the length scale of such structures are an order of magnitude larger than the spot size of the focused laser of the tool. Nonlinear writing techniques such as with 2-photon absorption offer increased write resolution which makes it possible to fabricate sub-wavelength structures as well as having a flexibility in feature shape. However it does not allow a high speed fabrication and in general are not scalable due to limitations of speed and area induced by the tool’s high NA optics. To overcome such limitations primarily imposed by NA, we propose a new micro-optic fabrication process which extends the capabilities of 1D, low NA, and thus fast and scalable, laser direct writing to fabricate a structure having a length scale close to the tool's spot size, for example, a mirror based and 45 degree optical coupler with optical surface quality. The newly developed process allows a high speed fabrication with a write speed of 2600 mm²/min by incorporating a mask based lithography method providing a blank structure which is critical to creating a 45 degree slope to form the coupler surface. In this method, instead of using an entire exposure in a pixelated manner, only a portion of the Gaussian profile is used, allowing a reduced surface roughness and better control of the surface shape than previously possible with this low NA beam. The surface figure of the mirror is well controlled below 0.04 waves in root-mean-square (RMS) at 1.55 μm wavelength, with mirror angle of 45±1 degrees. The coupling efficiency is evaluated using a set of polymer waveguides fabricated on the same substrate as the complete proof of concept device. Device insertion loss was measured using a custom built optical test station and a detailed loss analysis was completed to characterize the optical coupling efficiency of the mirror. Surface roughness and angle were also experimentally confirmed. This process opens up a pathway towards large volume fabrication of free-form and high aspect ratio optical components which have not yet pursued, along with well-defined optical structures on a single substrate.

▼ Precision freeform optics are finding increased usage in new optical systems. Deflectometry is a non-null optical metrology method that has great application potential to be a measurement method for freeform and standard optics, offering a wide slope dynamic range and excellent accuracy and precision. The technique utilizes a known source which emits rays of light that are deflected by the unit under test (UUT) and are captured by a recording camera. By knowing the precise location of the source, the ray intercepts at the UUT, and the camera, the local surface slopes of the UUT can be determined and integrated to obtain a reconstructed surface. This study investigates three major topics to improve deflectometry and identify new Deflectometric based techniques. The first topic explored is a software-based method for an iterative surface reconstruction process. Deflectometry relies on determining the local surface slopes of the UUT by precisely knowing the ray intercept locations at the surface. Any error in the assumed surface model therefore directly reduces the reconstructed surface accuracy. A new processing method was developed called model-free deflectometry, which requires no optical surface model, and instead iteratively reconstructs the optical surface leading to improved final reconstruction accuracy. The method was used to reduce departure of a freeform optic from interferometric results from 15.80 𝜇m root-mean-square (RMS) using model-based deflectometry down to 5.20 𝜇m RMS with the model-free method developed. Further, most of the 5.20 𝜇m RMS residual departure was explained using a simulation to model the inherent noise present from hardware limitations. The second topic is a deflectometry system configuration which generates a virtual 2π steradian measurement volume, enabling full aperture deflectometry measurements of previously unmeasurable flat and convex freeform optics. The technique utilizes a source tilted over the UUT, enabling at least a partial aperture test. However, by clocking the UUT, a series of virtual sources are generated, which when considered as a whole, create a virtual source enclosure around the UUT allowing for a full aperture test. The method was shown to have accuracy similar to an interferometric test for a fast F/1.26 convex sphere and successfully tested a highly freeform Alvarez lens. Lastly, a power scalable, time-modulated high stability infrared source is explored for infrared deflectometry. The new source is an integrating box design with a precision emission area machine cut into an aluminum box. The light sources are modular high-efficiency resistive alloy membranes held in small caps. The design allows for power scaling by adding or removing caps from the source design. The caps are powered in parallel and are modulated at approximately 1 Hz to allow for signal isolation, thereby greatly improving signal to noise ratio. The new source was compared with a traditional tungsten source, both run at the same power output, and the source stability and geometry compared.… Advisors/Committee Members: Kim, Dae Wook (advisor), Smith, Gregory (committeemember), Schwiegerling, James (committeemember), Koshel, R.
