Fast ion generation with ICRF waves and beams in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator

Mike Machielsen

The largest operating stellarator, Wendelstein 7-X, is of the quasi-isodynamic type. For this design to scale up to a fusion reactor, several criteria must be met, one of them being good fast ion confinement. The latter still has to be tested experimentall ...

Magic-angle magnonic nanocavity in a magnetic moiré superlattice

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu

Moiré superlattices have recently been extensively studied in both electronic and photonic systems, e.g., magic-angle bilayer graphene showing superconductivity and twisted bilayer photonic crystals leading to magic-angle lasers. However, the moiré physics ...

Quantitative and sensitive detection of alpha fetoprotein in serum by a plasmonic sensor

Wen Chen

Quantitative molecular detection based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is still a great challenge because of the highly nonuniform distribution of the SERS hot spots and the nondeterministic spatial and spectral overlap of the analyte with th ...
