Use of information on the manufacture of samples for the optical characterization of multilayers through a global optimization

We present a procedure for the optical characterization of thin-film stacks from spectrophotometric data. The procedure overcomes the intrinsic limitations arising in the numerical determination of manyparameters from reflectance or transmittance spectra measurements. The key point is to use all theinformation available from the manufacturing process in a single global optimization process. The method is illustrated by a case study of solgel applications.

Evaluation pré-post d'une intervention de prévention du VIH auprès des hommes qui ont des rapports sexuels avec des hommes, Suisse 2012

Contexte: L'intervention "Break The Chains" 2012 de l'OFSP a l'intention des gays visait à informer sur la primo-infection et a inciter a un test de dépistage VIH. Design: L'évaluation a recouru a un design Pre-Post avec 2 dispositifs: A) enquête par questionnaire Internet avec une vague avant la campagne et une après (transversal repete); B) 1) relevé centré sur le canton de Zurich du nombre de test effectues par des gays durant le premier semestre 2012 utilisant des données récoltées par Sentinella, par les centres de test utilisant l'application BerDa et auprès des praticiens de HIV-Prakt; et 2) recueil d'information par le questionnaire internet post-intervention des intentions d'effectuer un test VIH. Résultats: 366 HSH ont répondu au questionnaire de la phase pré-, et 964 à la phase post-intervention. 69.8% ont entendu parler de la campagne. Parmi les répondants ayant identifie le message, 48.6% se sont sentis concernes. Avant la campagne, 34.2% des répondants identifiaient les 4 symptômes de la primo-infection, 46.4% se sentaient bien informes et 79.2% connaissaient le délai minimum pour qu'un test informe sur une absence d'infection; après la campagne, ces proportions étaient 39.6%, 62.0% et 85.2%. 17.1% des répondants ont déclaré avoir fait/avoir l'intention de faire, un test VIH suite à la campagne. Le nombre de tests effectues par les répondants Internet montre effectivement un pic dans le 2e trimestre 2012; les données BerDa montrent une stabilité du nombre total de tests. Les données épidémiologiques montrent une augmentation de la proportion et du nombre d'infections récentes détectées durant ce 2e trimestre, mais une diminution des infections anciennes. Conclusions: L'intervention BTC a amélioré légèrement les connaissances relatives à la phase de primo-infection du VIH et a la nécessité d'effectuer un test VIH. Elle semble avoir incite le public cible à effectuer un test VIH qui n'aurait pas été réalisé autrement et a peut-être ainsi contribuer a la détection d'infections récentes.
