Quantum phase transitions beyond Landau-Ginzburg theory in one-dimensional space revisited

Christopher Marc Mudry

The phase diagram of the quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic J(1)-J(2) XXZ chain was obtained by Haldane using bosonization techniques [Haldane, Phys. Rev. B 25, 4925 (1982); 26, 5257 (1982)]. It supports three distinct phases for 0

Orientation-Dispersed Apparent Axon Diameter via Multi-Stage Spherical Mean Optimization

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Marco Pizzolato

The estimation of the apparent axon diameter (AAD) via diffusion MRI is affected by the incoherent alignment of single axons around its axon bundle direction, also known as orientational dispersion. The simultaneous estimation of AAD and dispersion is chal ...

Thermal Critical Points and Quantum Critical End Point in the Frustrated Bilayer Heisenberg Antiferromagnet

Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand

We consider the finite-temperature phase diagram of the S = 1/2 frustrated Heisenberg bilayer. Although this two-dimensional system may show magnetic order only at zero temperature, we demonstrate the presence of a line of finite-temperature critical point ...

Mapping the lattice dynamical anomaly of the order parameters across the Verwey transition in magnetite

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Fabrizio Carbone, Andrea Pisoni, Gregory Scott Tucker, Francesco Pennacchio, Simone Borroni

We present inelastic neutron scattering data across the Verwey transition in magnetite, obtained for a single crystal via a detwinning method. We provide direct evidence of the influence of the charge order on the transverse-acoustic phonons, associated wi ...

Dimerization and exotic criticality in spin-S chains

Natalia Chepiga

In this thesis we have studied the emergence of spontaneously dimerized phases in frustrated spin-S chains, with emphasis on the nature of the critical lines between the dimerized and non-dimerized phases. The main numerical method used in this thesis is t ...

Elevated transition temperature in Ge doped VO2 thin films

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Arnaud Magrez, Andreas Schueler, Wolfgang Amadeus Vitale, Anna Krammer, Piotr Mocny

Thermochromic GexV1-xO2+y thin films have been deposited on Si (100) substrates by means of reactive magnetron sputtering. The films were then characterized by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), four-point probe electrical resistivity measuremen ...

Coherent generation of symmetry-forbidden phonons by light-induced electron-phonon interactions in magnetite

Oleg Yazyev, Fabrizio Carbone, Frank van Mourik, Edoardo Baldini, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Andreas Helmut Christian Mann, Simone Borroni

Symmetry breaking across phase transitions often causes changes in selection rules and emergence of optical modes which can be detected via spectroscopic techniques or generated coherently in pump-probe experiments. In second-order or weakly first-order tr ...

Neutron spectroscopy in the layered quantum magnet SrCu₂(BO₃)₂ and in transition metal phosphorus trisulfides (MPS₃)

Diane Virginie Marie Lançon

Collective magnetic excitations are a fascinating aspect of condensed matter physics, where neutron scattering can provide valuable insight into the magnetic properties of physical realisations of model systems. This thesis focuses on the excitation spectr ...

Dispersion and shape engineered plasmonic nanosensors

Hyeonho Jeong

Biosensors based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of individual metallic nanoparticles promise to deliver modular, low-cost sensing with high-detection thresholds. However, they continue to suffer from relatively low sensitivity and figure ...

Sensitive and Accurate Dispersion Map Extraction of HNLFs by Frequency Tuning of a Degenerate FWM

Camille Sophie Brès, Fatemeh Alishahi, Armand Vedadi-Comte, Mohammad Amin Shoaie

A sensitive and accurate method for dispersion map extraction along an arbitrarily profiled highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) is proposed. High sensitivity is achieved by positioning the wavelength of a signal at the band edge of the modulation instability (MI ...
