We compare non-local magnetoresistance measurements in multi-terminal Ni nanostructures with corresponding local experiments. In both configurations, the measured voltages show the characteristic features of anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR). However, th ...
The study presented in this thesis aims to numerically explore the micro-mechanisms underlying rock fracture and fragmentation under dynamic loading. The approach adopted is based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM) coupled to the Cohesive Process Zone (C ...
The non-relativistic quantum dynamics of nuclei and electrons is solved within the framework of quantum hydrodynamics using the adiabatic representation of the electronic states. An on-the-fly trajectory-based nonadiabatic molecular dynamics algorithm is d ...
The accuracy of nonscreened and screened hybrid functionals for the calculation of defect levels within the band gap is assessed for the As antisite in GaAs, the nature of which is well characterized experimentally. A set of functionals differing by the fr ...
In quantum theory, any Hamiltonian describing a physical system is mathematically represented by a self-adjoint linear operator to ensure the reality of the associated observables. In an attempt to extend quantum mechanics into the complex domain, it was r ...
A revisited realization of the Young's double slit experiment is introduced to directly probe the photonic mode symmetry by photoluminescence experiments. We experimentally measure the far field angular emission pattern of quantum dots embedded in photonic ...
A robust, user-friendly, and automated method to determine quantum conductance in quasi-one-dimensional systems is presented. The scheme relies upon an initial density-functional theory calculation in a specific geometry after which the ground-state eigenf ...
Designing a measurement system is usually performed using only engineering judgment and experience. Thus, it may result in either a large amount of redundant data or insufficient data leading to ambiguous results. This paper presents a systematic approach ...
An antenna exhibiting a very wide bandwidth with reconfigurable rejection within the band is presented. The proposed topology is versatile in terms of the number of available antenna states and location of the rejection frequencies, and also allows the ope ...

We introduce an extended family of continuous-domain stochastic models for sparse, piecewise-smooth signals. These are specified as solutions of stochastic differential equations, or, equivalently, in terms of a suitable innovation model; the latter is ana ...
