Bulk Fermi surface and electronic properties of Cu0.07Bi2Se3

Helmuth Berger

The electronic properties of Cu0.07Bi2Se3 have been investigated using Shubnikov-de Haas and optical reflectance measurements. Quantum oscillations reveal a bulk, three-dimensional Fermi surface with anisotropy k(F)(c)/k(F)(ab) approximate to 2 and a modes ...

Time resolved three-dimensional acousto-optic imaging of thick scattering media

Salma Farahi

Acousto-optic imaging is based on light interaction with focused ultrasound in a scattering medium. Thanks to photorefractive holography combined with pulsed ultrasound, we perform a time-resolved detection of ultrasound-modulated photons in the therapeuti ...

Ultra Low Temperature Susceptometer and Magnetometer : Study of the Spin Glass Series LiHox Er1-x F4

Julian Piatek

The first part of this thesis discusses technical details relating to measurements of magnetic properties at ultra low temperatures. The implementation of AC susceptibility at temperatures down to 30 mK is introduced and used as a platform to showcase sele ...

Three-Dimensional Electron Realm in VSe2 by Soft-X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy: Origin of Charge-Density Waves

Helmuth Berger, Thorsten Schmitt, Xiaoqiang Wang

The resolution of angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) in three-dimensional (3D) momentum k is fundamentally limited by ill defined surface-perpendicular wave vector k(perpendicular to) associated with the finite photoelectron mean free path. ...

ARPES Studies of Cuprate and Pnictide Superconductors

Since the discovery of cuprate superconductors in 1986, the subject of high temperature superconductivity has triggered a lot of scientific activity. Despite enormous efforts, the origin of high-temperature superconductivity is still the subject of intense ...

Development of stencil lithography for nanopatterning and for electronic and biosensing applications

Oscar Vazquez Mena

This work presents analyses and developments in nanofabrication using stencil lithography and its application for electronics and biosensing. Metallic nanostructures are fabricated using stencil lithography studying the pattern transfer from the stencil to ...

WC/a-C nanocomposite thin films: Optical and electrical properties

Rosendo Sanjines

WC/amorphous carbon (a-C) thin films were deposited by dual magnetron sputtering from individual WC and graphite targets. The influence of film composition and microstructure on the optical and electrical properties was investigated. As evidenced by x-ray ...

Image formation in fluorescence coherence-gated imaging through scattering media

Theo Lasser

Recently, we have experimentally demonstrated a new form of cross-sectional, coherence-gated fluorescence imaging referred to as SD-FCT (‘spectral-domain fluorescence coherence tomography’). Imaging in SD-FCT is accomplished by spectrally detecting self-in ...

Design of an endoscopic optical reference to be used for autofluorescence bronchoscopy with a commercially available diagnostic autofluorescence endoscopy (DAFE) system

Georges Wagnières, Tanja Gabrecht, Blaise Lovisa, François André Borle

We present the design of a sterilizable optical reference to characterize and quantify the inter-patient variations in tissue autofluorescence during autofluorescence bronchoscopy with Richard Wolf's diagnostic autofluorescence endoscopy (DAFE) system. The ...

Method for measuring locally and superficially the scattering and absorption properties of turbid media

Christian Depeursinge

We present a method and apparatus for local and superficial measurement of the optical properties of turbid media. The depth probed is on the order of 1 transport mean free path of the photon. The absorption coefficient, reduced scattering coefficient and ...
