Analysis of Salt Mixture Contamination on Insulators via Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
The composition of contamination deposited on transmission line insulators can affect their surface flashover voltage. Currently, there is no rapid on-line method to detect this contamination composition in power grids.

Are Topological Insulators Promising Thermoelectrics?
Some of the best thermoelectric (TE) materials to date are also topological insulators (TIs). While many studies have investigated the effects of topologically-protected surface states on TE properties, the conditions needed to realize such effects are ...

3D Printed Polymer Photonic Topological Insulators and their Robustness to Fabrication Disorder
Photonic topological insulators have emerged as an exciting new platform for backscatter-free waveguiding even in the presence of defects, with applications in robust long-range energy and quantum information transfer, spectroscopy and sensing, chiral ...

Superconductor–insulator transitions and insulators with localized pairs [PDF]
Two experiments are described which are related to the problem of localized Cooper pairs. Magnetic-field-tuned superconductor-insulator transition was studied in amorphous In--O films with onset of the superconducting transition in zero field near 2 K. Experiments performed in the temperature range T>0.3 K indicate that at the critical field, B=B_c,

Highly Conducting Single-Molecule Topological Insulators Based on Mono- and Di-Radical Cations
Single-molecule topological insulators are promising candidates as conducting wires over nanometer length scales. In past, most conjugated molecular wires exhibit low conductance that decays as the wire length increases.

Nuclear conversion theory: molecular hydrogen in non-magnetic insulators [PDF]
The hydrogen conversion patterns on non-magnetic solids sensitively depend upon the degree of singlet/triplet mixing in the intermediates of the catalytic reaction. Three main ‘symmetry-breaking’ interactions are brought together.

Interferometric schemes: a probe for topological edge states, a tool in weak measurements [PDF]
In the first part of this thesis we propose interferometric schemes to probe the properties of edge states of topological insulators and superconductors.
