Studies in support of the assessment of aging structural materials in pressurized water reactors are being performed at the Paul Scherrer Institut. To that aim, a state-of-the-art methodology based on applying a CASMO-4/SIMULATE-3/MCNPX calculation scheme ...
The longitudinal low frequency acoustic and optic phonon modes of 2H-NbSe2 have been determined for the Gamma - M direction with inelastic neutron scattering at 50 K close to the charge density wave transition temperature. ...
This work includes the fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures as well as the investigation of their optical properties in the near-field and in the farfield. As expressed in the title of this thesis the focus lies in the subwavelength confinement and enha ...
Many macromolecules in the cell function by forming multi-component assemblies. We have applied the technique of small angle neutron scattering to study a nucleic acid-protein complex and a multi-protein complex. The results illustrate the versatility and ...
Motivated by synthesis of new antiferromagnetic compounds with weak exchange coupling, a study of high magnetic field properties of the Heisenberg model on a square-lattice is undertaken here. Ordered spins at zero temperature cant toward the field directi ...
We report the results of a combined muon-spin rotation and neutron-scattering study on La2-xSrxCuO4 in the vicinity of the so-called 1/8 anomaly. Application of a magnetic field drives the system toward a magnetically ordered spin-density-wave state, which ...
Though the high superconducting transition temperature (Tc) is the most interesting technological aspect of high temperature superconductors, the complex way in which the spin, lattice and electronic degrees of freedom interplay, makes them of the highest ...
The envelopes of spin-echo amplitudes obtained with trains of multiple refocusing pulses are normally modulated by homonuclear scalar couplings. Echo modulations make it difficult to determine transverse relaxation rate constants R2. Provided that the puls ...
Using small angle neutron scattering we have been able to observe for the first time a well-defined vortex lattice (VL) structure both in the hole-doped LSCO and electron-doped NCCO superconductors. Our measurements on optimally doped LSCO reveal the exist ...
We present a novel theory of polaritons which contains the crucial tools to securely tackle the many-body physics of polaritons. Microcavitly polaritons are central to exciting Bose-Einstein condensation and parametric scattering experiments in semiconduct ...
