Spatially‐Resolved Coherence of Organic Molecular Spins at Room‐Temperature

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular spin qubits are emerging as a promising quantum sensing technology. This paper studies the variation in coherence and sensitivity in both crystalline and thin‐film samples by combining microscopy and room temperature optically detected coherent control.

Coherent two photon excitation within an extended cloud of Rubidium 85 for the purposes of atomic interferometry and cooling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cold atom samples, at temperatures of the order 100 µK, are useful for a wide reaching array of new and exciting technological and scientific endeavours. Atoms are conventionally cooled by Doppler cooling, which relies on the continuous absorption and re-

Laser Cooling of an Optomechanical Crystal Resonator to Its Quantum Ground State of Motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Quantum mechanics continues to intrigue us with bizarre predictions that seemingly run counter to our everyday classical intuition. Superposition, zero-point motion, entanglement, and inescapable bounds on measurement precision are just a few purely ...

Compact ultracold electron source based on a grating magneto-optical trap

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2019
The ultrafast and ultracold electron source, based on near-threshold photoionization of a laser-cooled and trapped atomic gas, offers a unique combination of low transverse beam emittance and high bunch charge. Its use is however still limited because of

Shaping Beam Profiles Using Plastic Optical Fiber Tapers with Application to Ice Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Using either bulk or fiber optics the profile of laser beams can be altered from Gaussian to top-hat or hollow beams allowing enhanced performance in applications like laser cooling, optical trapping, and fiber sensing.

Synthesis of AgBiS2 and AgInS2 Based on Formation Energies in Sulfur‐Rich Reducing Flame

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐surface‐area AgInS2 and AgBiS2 nanoparticles were synthesized via enclosed flame spray pyrolysis by tuning flame conditions and formation energies to guide phase formation. Flame parameters were tuned to suppress oxides and enable pure sulfide phase growth.

Photostop [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The use of photodissociation to produce cold, slow molecules from a molecular beam of cold, fast molecules is dubbed “photostop”. The essence of the scheme is thus: a pulsed molecular beam of a precursor molecule AB seeded in a noble carrier gas is ...

Engineering of Crystallinity to Amplify Chiroptical Activity of TiO2 Nanohelices for Enhancing Dissymmetric Circularly Polarized Photocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Enhancing crystallinity through thermal annealing leads to amplifying the chiroptical activity of TiO2 nanohelices (NHs) fabricated by glancing angle deposition, ascribed to the suppression of charge trapping. The enhanced chiroptical activity can be converted into pronounced dissymmetric photocatalytic kinetics of circularly polarized photocatalysis ...

A chirped, pulsed laser system and magneto-optical trap for rubidium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis covers the construction and characterisation of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for 85Rb from the very beginning. It details both the optical and mechanical aspects from laser diode assembly, tuning and stabilisation to the preparation and ...
