Controlling Atom-Photon Bound States in an Array of Josephson-Junction Resonators

Pasquale Scarlino, Marco Scigliuzzo

Engineering the electromagnetic environment of a quantum emitter gives rise to a plethora of exotic light -matter interactions. In particular, photonic lattices can seed long-lived atom-photon bound states inside photonic band gaps. Here, we report on the ...

Tunability of space-time wave packet carrying tunable and dynamically changing OAM value

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov

Space-time (ST) wave packets have gained much interest due to their dynamic optical properties. Such wave packets can be generated by synthesizing frequency comb lines, each having multiple complex-weighted spatial modes, to carry dynamically changing orbi ...

Beyond potentials: Integrated machine learning models for materials

Michele Ceriotti

Over the past decade, interatomic potentials based on machine learning (ML) techniques have become an indispensable tool in the atomic-scale modeling of materials. Trained on energies and forces obtained from electronic-structure calculations, they inherit ...

Landing Proteins on Graphene Trampoline Preserves Their Gas-Phase Folding on the Surface

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sven Alexander Szilagyi, Hannah Julia Ochner

Molecule-surface collisions are known to initiate dynamics that lead to products inaccessible by thermal chemistry. These collision dynamics, however, have mostly been examined on bulk surfaces, leaving vast opportunities unexplored for molecular collision ...

Successive training of a generative adversarial network for the design of an optical cloak

Olivier Martin, André-Pierre Blanchard-Dionne

At the nanoscale level, optical properties of materials depend greatly on their shape. Finding the right geometry for a specific property remains a fastidious and long task, even with the help of modelling tools. In this work, we overcome this challenge by ...

Multi-scale approach for the prediction of atomic scale properties

Michele Ceriotti, Andrea Grisafi, Jigyasa Nigam

Electronic nearsightedness is one of the fundamental principles that governs the behavior of condensed matter and supports its description in terms of local entities such as chemical bonds. Locality also underlies the tremendous success of machine-learning ...

Gigahertz Frame Rate Imaging of Charge-Injection Dynamics in a Molecular Light Source

Klaus Kern, Anna Maria Roslawska, Abhishek Grewal

Light sources on the scale of single molecules can be addressed and characterized at their proper sub-nanometer scale by scanning tunneling microscopy-induced luminescence (STML). Such a source can be driven by defined short charge pulses while the lumines ...

Investigation of photoinduced effects in plasmonic nanocavities

Aqeel Ahmed

Light matter interaction can be boosted by several orders of magnitude by tailoring the photonic environment, thus enabling a wide range of applications. One particular example are plasmonic nanostructures that support localized surface plasmon polariton ( ...

Structured light generation by refractive-diffractive micro optical array illuminators

Maryam Yousefi

Structured light generation having broad applications in different optical fields, is the topic of this thesis. Our structured light generation strategy is based on applying periodic microoptical elements at the refraction-diffraction limit, under a focuse ...

Monolithic perovskite/silicon-heterojunction tandem solar cells processed at low temperature

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Michael Saliba, Antonio Abate, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Ludmilla Steier

Tandem solar cells combining silicon and perovskite absorbers have the potential to outperform state-of-the-art high efficiency silicon single junction devices. However, the practical fabrication of monolithic silicon/perovskite tandem solar cells is chall ...

Engineering multi-state transparency on demand

Olivier Martin, Sebastian Mader

Materials are, in general, either transparent or not. In principle, it is impossible to switch a material from a reflective optical state to a fully transparent one. Transparency has received relatively less research attention compared to other optical pro ...

Constraining the response factors of an extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometer for near-molecular aerosol speciation

Julia Schmale

Online characterization of aerosol composition at the near-molecular level is key to understanding chemical reaction mechanisms, kinetics, and sources under various atmospheric conditions. The recently developed extractive electrospray ionization time-of-f ...
