High‐Quality Free‐Standing Diamond Micromembranes for Nanoscale Quantum Sensing
We report a procedure for fabricating low‐damage free‐standing diamond micromembranes, and we show that this fabrication scheme preserves the optical and spin properties of state‐of‐the‐art shallow NV center quantum sensors, within nanometers of the diamond surface, while providing significant photonic enhancement.

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create

Structural analysis and design of Timber Light-Frame shear walls
The thesis aims at investigating the seismic performances of timber light-frame shear walls with focus on the contribution offered by the sheathing-to-framing connections in terms of energy dissipation and ductility. Numerical non-linear analyses under displacement-controlled loading conditions are carried out using an original parametric finite ...
