A diamond spin qubit scanning probe microscope

Dinesh Kevin Mathais Pinto

The properties of a physical system only exist in relation to its environment. This thesis presents the development of a novel spin qubit scanning probe microscope operating over a wide range of environmental conditions. The qubit, which sits at the heart ...

High-frequency gaseous and particulate chemical characterization using extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (Dual-Phase-EESI-TOF)

Andrea Baccarini, Mihnea Surdu

To elucidate the sources and chemical reaction pathways of organic vapors and particulate matter in the ambient atmosphere, real-time detection of both the gas and particle phase is needed. State-of-the-art techniques often suffer from thermal decompositio ...

In situ control of the helical and skyrmion phases in Cu2OSeO3 using high-pressure helium gas up to 5 kbar

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Jonathan White

We report a small-angle neutron scattering study of the helical and skyrmion lattice order in single-crystal Cu2OSeO3 under quasihydrostatic helium gas pressures up to 5 kbar. By using helium gas as the pressure-transmitting medium (PTM) we ensure pressure ...

High-Resolution Data Sets Unravel the Effects of Sources and Meteorological Conditions on Nitrate and Its Gas-Particle Partitioning

Athanasios Nenes

Nitrate is one of the most abundant inorganic water-soluble ions in fine particulate matter (PM2.5). However, the formation mechanism of nitrate in the ambient atmosphere, especially the impacts of its semivolatility and the various existing forms of nitro ...

A new bioinspired method for pressure and flow sensing based on the underwater air-retaining surface of the backswimmer Notonecta

Goran Lovric

In technical systems, static pressure and pressure changes are usually measured with piezoelectric materials or solid membranes. In this paper, we suggest a new biomimetic principle based on thin air layers that can be used to measure underwater pressure c ...

Pressure-induced superconductivity in the giant Rashba system BiTeI

Helmuth Berger

At ambient pressure, BiTeI exhibits a giant Rashba splitting of the bulk electronic bands. At low pressures, BiTeI undergoes a transition from trivial insulator to topological insulator. At still higher pressures, two structural transitions are known to oc ...

The Environmental Photochemistry of Oxide Surfaces and the Nature of Frozen Salt Solutions: A New in Situ XPS Approach

Shunsuke Kato

Recent years have witnessed fast advancements in near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron (NAPP) spectroscopy, which is emerging as a powerful tool for the investigation of surfaces in presence of vapors and liquids. In this paper we present a new chamber ...

Air nonlinear dynamics initiated by ultra-intense lambda-cubic terahertz pulses

Christoph Peter Hauri

We report on the measurement of the instantaneous Kerr nonlinearity and the retarded alignment of air molecules CO2, N-2, and O-2 triggered by an intense, lambda-cubic terahertz pulse, a diffraction-and transform-limited single-cycle pulse. The strong-fiel ...

Pressure dependence of the magnetic order in CrAs: A neutron diffraction investigation

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Jonathan White, Peter Babkevich

The suppression of magnetic order with pressure concomitant with the appearance of pressure-induced superconductivity was recently discovered in CrAs. Here we present a neutron diffraction study of the pressure evolution of the helimagnetic ground state to ...

Pressure effect on magnetism and multiferroicity in Mn2GeO4

Jonathan White

The effect of high pressure exceeding 6 GPa on magnetism and multiferroicity was investigated for the olivine Mn2GeO4 that shows successive magnetic transitions at ambient pressure and a ferroelectric ground state driven by spin- spiral order. We measured ...

Pressure-induced transformations in LiCl-H2O at 77 K

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado

A systematic study of the properties of high-density amorphous ice (HDA) in the presence of increasing amounts of salt is missing, especially because it is challenging to avoid ice crystallization upon cooling the pressurized liquid. In order to be able to ...

N2O Decomposition over Fe-ZSM-5 Studied by Transient Techniques

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Bryan Bromley

N2O decomposition to gaseous N-2 and O-2 catalyzed by a commercial Fe-ZSM-5 has been studied by different transient techniques: (i) via the transient response methods at ambient pressure, (ii) via the temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor under vacuu ...

Pressure-Induced Phase Transitions in Micro-, Submicro-, and Nanocrystalline NaNbO3

Arnaud Magrez

Pressure-induced successive phase transitions of micro-, submicro-, and nanocrystalline NaNbO3 particles were investigated by high-pressure Raman spectroscopy. Microcrystalline NaNbO3, which stabilizes in an orthorhombic Pbcm structure at ambient pressure, ...

Study of N2O decomposition over Fe-ZSM-5 with transient methods

Nitrous oxide is the third most important gas contributing to global warming and its concentration in the atmosphere is still on the rise. Nitric acid production represents the largest source of N2O in the chemical industry, with a total annual emission of ...

Noncentrosymmetric phase of submicron NaNbO3 crystallites

Arnaud Magrez

The temperature and pressure characteristics of a noncentrosymmetric crystal modification of NaNbO3 were studied by Raman spectroscopy. A transition towards the bulk-like structure of NaNbO3 occurs in the temperature range from 280 to 360 °C. High-pressure ...
