Amphoteric Cu‐Doping Leading to High Thermoelectric Performance in p‐Type Bismuth Antimony Telluride

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that Cu plays two opposite roles in p‐type Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 depending on the processing route. Under thermodynamic‐equilibrium bulk‐synthesis, Cu mainly occupies cation sites, increases hole concentration, preserves mobility, and slightly reduces lattice heat transport. The best‐performing composition among the investigated series reaches

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

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 ...

Reliable transport through a microfabricated X-junction surface-electrode ion trap

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
We report the design, fabrication and characterization of a microfabricated surface-electrode ion trap that supports controlled transport through the two-dimensional intersection of linear trapping zones arranged in a 90° cross.

Biodegradable 3D‐Printable and Coatable Antifouling Composites for Marine Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Marine biofouling damages submerged surfaces and raises greenhouse gas emissions. Biodegradable antifouling biocomposites were developed by hot‐mixing beeswax, Tween 80, and calcium stearate or stearic acid. Adjusting the component ratio enables processing via hot‐pressing, 3D‐printing, or dip‐coating.

Optical trapping: optical interferometric metrology and nanophotonics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The two main themes in this thesis are the implementation of interference methods with optically trapped particles for measurements of position and optical phase (optical interferometric metrology) and the optical manipulation of nanoparticles for ...

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

Excited state spatial distributions in a cold strontium gas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis describes the development of a new technique for measuring the spatial distribution of Rydberg atoms in a cold strontium gas. Strontium atoms are cooled and trapped in a magneto-optical trap and coherently excited to Rydberg states in a two ...

Chemical Strategies for Multistimuli Responsive Dynamic Covalent Materials in Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Multistimuli responsive dynamic covalent materials integrate reversible chemistry with the complex chemical, mechanical, and biochemical cues of regenerative environments. This review highlights chemical strategies based on orthogonal dynamic bonds, multicomponent networks, and hierarchical architectures to regulate mechanics, degradation, and ...

A Quantum Degenerate Mixture of $^{87}$Rb and $^{133}$Cs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis reports the formation of a dual-species Bose-Einstein condensate of $^{87}$Rb and $^{133}$Cs in the same trapping potential. Quantum degenerate mixtures exhibit rich physics inaccessible to single species experiments and provide an ideal ...
