The diversity of experimentally observed nonlinear coherent and partially coherent optical structures, including breathing, zero-dispersion, and switching wave states in driven optical microresonators, is mainly provided by cavity dispersion engineering. R ...

In the last decade, aluminum nitride (AlN) has proven to be an attractive material for both linear and nonlinear integrated photonics, due to its large transparency window, its low propagation losses and the presence of both second- and third-order nonline ...

Carbon dioxide electrolysis (CO 2 E) in fully aprotic organic electrolytes primarily yields oxalate (C 2 O 4 2−), carbon monoxide (CO), and carbonate (CO 3 2−). To understand this system, we investigated the adsorption dynamics in the CO adsorption region ...

Coherent superposition of electronic states, created by ionizing a molecule, can initiate ultrafast dynamics of the electron density. Correlation between nuclear and electron motions, however, typically dissipates the electronic coherence in only a few fem ...

Advanced wave engineering demands robust, efficient, and new-degree-of-freedom manipulations in wave intrinsic properties like amplitude, phase, polarization, and even spatial structure. To tackle this, this thesis advances photonic wave manipulation by sy ...

We present a numerical implementation, based on Wannier interpolation, of a Kubo-Greenwood formalism for computing the spatially dispersive optical conductivity in crystals at first order in the wave vector of light. This approach is more efficient than di ...

Nuclear power is a powerful technology that plays an important role in the fight against climate change, and research is continuously engaged in studies that could further improve its safety. After the Fukushima accident, Accident Tolerant Fuels research h ...

Optical parametric amplification is a promising alternative to traditional erbium-doped amplifiers, offering unidirectional, low-noise, and broadband amplification. Here we present an integrated continuous-traveling-wave parametric amplifier that surpasses ...

In general, space-time wave packets with correlations between transverse spatial fields and temporal frequency spectra can lead to unique spatiotemporal dynamics, thus enabling control of the instantaneous light properties. However, spatiotemporal dynamics ...

The earth-abundant and non-toxic material Zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) is a promising candidate for solar cell applications. However, growth of defect-free, high-quality thin films on substrates that can integrate with current technology (e.g. silicon) remains c ...

Vibrational Raman scattering-a process where light exchanges energy with a molecular vibration through inelastic scattering-is most fundamentally described in a quantum framework where both light and vibration are quantized. When the Raman scatterer is emb ...

This paper presents a comprehensive study of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si)-based detectors, utilizing electrical characterization, Raman spectroscopy, photoemission, and inverse photoemission techniques. The unique properties of a-Si have sparked i ...

This thesis investigates the magnetic properties of single atoms and molecules adsorbed on thin magnesium oxide decoupling layers, grown on a silver single crystal. To address these systems experimentally, we use a low temperature scanning tunneling micros ...

Tungsten diselenide (WSe2) is a 2D semiconducting material, promising for novel optoelectronic and phononic applications. WSe2 has complex lattice dynamics and phonon structure. Numerous discrepancies in the literature exist regarding the interpretation an ...

Recent studies investigated the hydrolysis of Magnesium (Mg) thin films, highlighting their potential use in biodegradable devices. Quantitatively monitoring the degradation rate and morphological changes of Mg through optical methods and light-delivery de ...

Our understanding of quantum materials is commonly based on precise determinations of their electronic spectrum by spectroscopic means, most notably angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and scanning tunneling microscopy. Both require atomicall ...

The nonlinear decay of oscillations of a liquid column in a U-shaped tube is investigated within the theoretical framework of the projection method formalized by Bongarzone et al. [Chaos 31, 123124 (2021)]. Starting from the full hydrodynamic system supple ...

We present a numerically exact approach for evaluating vibrationally resolved electronic spectra at finite temperatures using the coherence thermofield dynamics. In this method, which avoids implementing an algorithm for solving the von Neumann equation fo ...

Atmospheric pressure low power plasma jets operating in noble gases are a widespread tool in plasma medicine studies. We present experimental results obtained in one such device, which combine physical, chemical and biological measurements to assess the ef ...

Solving native structures of such large molecules, like biomolecules, is often challenging, particularly due to the potentially infinite number of non-covalent interactions with water. In this thesis, we report the use of cold ion gas-phase action spectros ...
