Scanning probe microscope (SPM) experiments demand a low vibration level to minimize the external influence on the measured signal. We present a miniature six-degree of freedom active damping stage based on a Gough-Stewart platform (hexapod) which is posit ...
Cryo electron tomography provides nanometer-scale information on biological matter preserved in a close-to native state. The resolution of tomograms and structures resolved by sub-tomogram averaging is typically limited by the contrast transfer function of ...
The great achievement of nanotechnology is the controlled synthesis of a large variety of nanometer-size materials like needle-formed nanotubes, nanowires and two-dimensional graphene flakes. Due to their unique physico-chemical properties, these nanostruc ...
The control of light emission on the scale of individual quantum systems, like molecules or quantum dots, is a field of intense current research. One way to induce light emission from these systems is the local charge injection through the tip of a scannin ...
By means of experiment and simulation, we achieve unprecedented insights into the formation of Talbot images to be observed in transmission for light diffracted at wavelength-scale amplitude gratings. Emphasis is put on disclosing the impact and the interp ...
Our contribution in this paper is two fold. First, we propose a novel discretization of the forward model for differential phase-contrast imaging that uses B-spline basis functions. The approach yields a fast and accurate algorithm for implementing the for ...

This thesis studies the optical and electro-mechanical properties of novel atomically thin crystals. It deals with the carbon based material, graphene, and with layered transition metal dichalcogenides with the common formula MX2. The first part describes ...
We demonstrate three-dimensional imaging through a thin turbid medium using digital phase conjugation of the second harmonic signal emitted from a beacon nanoparticle. The digitally phase-conjugated focus scans the volume in the vicinity of its initial pos ...
