We have developed an original time resolved cathodoluminescence (TRCL) set-up with temporal performances similar to those of conventional time resolved optical techniques, keeping the capability to get structural information through the secondary electron ...
Evaporation of a Cs overlayer in the submonolayer and monolayer regime on a cleaved GaAs(110) surface has been studied by core-level photoemission spectroscopy. The experimental results show three different adsorption regimes deduced from the lineshape of ...
We present a systematic study of the local hydrogen bonding in hydrogenated polymorphous silicon thin films (pm-Si:H), a heterogeneous material deposited on the edge of crystallinity, by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. A vibrational mode ...
Optical near field microscope for use with different, including differential contrast, methods. Microscope has a near field illuminating light source probe (3) and a photo-detector for detection of light from the object (6). Said detector has electronics f ...
Electrospinning from concentrated diphenylalanine solutions in a low-boiling-point solvent results in tubes that are chemically identical to self-assembled tubes, but show different morphologies, especially extreme lengths. Electrospinning of tubes offers ...
A full multiple theor. model (MXAN) is applied to fit picosecond difference x-ray absorption spectra at the Ru L3 edge upon photoexcitation of aq. [RuII(bpy)3]2+. Fitting difference spectra allows an increase in sensitivity, such that slight structural cha ...
The effect of high-temperature annealing on stress in AlxGa1-xN in different ambients and at different temperatures was studied using ultraviolet micro-Raman spectroscopy. Low (x=0.08) and high (x=0.31 and x=0.34) composition AlGaN, grown by metalorganic c ...
The behaviour of distributed temperature sensors based on spontaneous Raman scattering and coded OTDR (optical time domain reflectometry) is studied both theoretically and experimentally; in particular a high performance scheme has been implemented using a ...
The first series tube of the gyrotrons for the 10-MW electron cyclotron resonance heating system of the stellarator W7-X was tested at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (FZK) and yielded a total output power of 0.98 MW, with an,efficiency of 31% (without a singl ...
We report a modification by thin silicon nitride intralayers of the Au/n-GaAs)(100) Schottky barrier height. Thin intralayers were obtained by nitridation of evaporated Si films on decapped GaAs substrates in an argon-nitrogen mixture plasma. The nitridati ...
