Studies of particle and atom manipulation using free space light beams and photonic crystal fibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Light can exert optical forces on matter. In the macroscopic world these forces are minuscule, but on the microscopic or atomic scale, these forces are large enough to trap and manipulate particles.

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Classical Laser Cooling and Trapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The study of atomic quantum behavior requires that atoms be in a low energy, low temperature state such that their behavior is dominated by quantum effects rather than classical.

An Evaluation of the Zeeman Shift of the 87Sr Optical Lattice Clock at the National Time Service Center

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The Zeeman shift plays an important role in the evaluation of optical lattice clocks since a strong bias magnetic field is applied for departing Zeeman sublevels and defining a quantization axis.

A new route for laser cooling and trapping of cold molecules: Intensity-gradient cooling of MgF molecules using localized hollow beams

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
We propose a promising scheme to prepare ultracold MgF molecules from a slowed cold molecular beam by using three-dimensional pure intensity-gradient induced Sisyphus cooling.

Laser‐Assisted Phase Engineering of 2D MoS2 for Efficient Solution‐Processed Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Here, local laser‐assisted phase transition from solution‐processed phase‐pure 1T′ to 2H MoS2 is shown to critically depend on the irradiation atmosphere. While processing in air leads to damaged insulating regions, inert conditions yield semiconducting 2H domains, enabling direct field‐effect transistor patterning with optimized lateral 1T′‐2H MoS2 ...

Coherent manipulation of ultracold Rubidium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The production of dense samples of atoms whose translational velocity can be parameterized by temperatures in the microkelvin range has revolutionized the fields of spectroscopy, metrology, quantum computing and sensitive tests of quantum mechanics. Such
