Electromechanical investigations and quench experiments on sub-size HTS cables for high field EU-DEMO Central Solenoid

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanical and thermal behaviour of HTS coated conductor cables for EUROfusion DEMO magnets. One of the issue in large HTS magnets is the safety against a quench. A quench is a sudden thermal runway in which the ...

Gas-puff induced cold pulse propagation in ADITYA-U tokamak

Abhijit Sen, Harshita Raj, Ankit Kumar, Rohit Kumar

Short bursts (similar to 1 ms) of gas, injecting similar to 10(17)-10(18) molecules of hydrogen and/or deuterium, lead to the observation of cold pulse propagation phenomenon in hydrogen plasmas of the ADITYA-U tokamak. After every injection, a sharp incre ...

How free exciton-exciton annihilation lets bound exciton emission dominate the photoluminescence of 2D-perovskites under high-fluence pulsed excitation at cryogenic temperatures

Michael Graetzel, Jovana Milic, Yang Li, Algirdas Ducinskas

Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of atomically thin 2D lead iodide perovskite films are shown to depend on excited-state density, especially at cryogenic temperatures. At high excited-state densities and low temperatures, free exciton (FE) emission is so sup ...

Optimization Method for Extracting Stabilizer Geometry and Properties of REBCO Tapes

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit, Francesco Grilli, Arooj Akbar, Nicolo' Riva

A good knowledge of material properties is a critical aspect for modeling high-temperature superconductor (HTS) devices. However, the electrical resistivity of coated conductors above the critical current is limited. The major challenge in characterizing t ...
