Dispersive Sweatt Model for Broadband Lens Design with Metasurfaces by Weiyu Chen, Ko-Han Shih, C. Kyle Renshaw

“…The Sweatt model has been extensively used to design optical systems containing diffractive optical elements (DOEs) because it captures the dispersive characteristics of DOEs. We introduce a new dispersive Sweatt model (DSM) that can describe meta-atom (MA) dispersion, which has material and geometric contributions in addition to diffraction. …”

Transitioning from an occupational therapy student to a clinically competent occupational therapist – A qualitative study by Patrik Sjöberg, Annika Lexén

“…Consequently, there is a need to gain a deeper understanding of this process in order to identify ways of making it easier.Aims/objectives To describe newly graduated Swedish occupational therapists’ experiences of the transition from being an occupational therapy student to becoming a clinically competent occupational therapist.Material and methods A qualitative study involving 15 participants was conducted using interviews to collect data and content data analysis was undertaken to capture occupational therapists’ experiences of the transition process.Results A theme emerged: ‘Bridging the gap by seeking stability in the transition from occupational therapy student to clinically competent occupational therapist’, with two sub-themes, 1) ‘Facing a new reality’ and 2) ‘Establishing one’s role’, containing categories that encapsulated experiences of the transition.Conclusions and significance To bridge the gap in the transition process, universities could review their curricula to identify changes to better prepare newly graduated occupational therapists for the demands of clinical practice. …”
