The diagnostic neutral beam injector with arc-discharge plasma source on the TCV Tokamak

Basil Duval, Alexander Karpushov, Yanis Andrebe, Alessandro Bortolon

The diagnostic neutral beam injector (DNBI) together with a charge exchange recombination spectroscopy (CXRS) system has been used on the TCV Tokamak as a diagnostic tool for local measurements of plasma ion temperature, velocity and carbon impurity densit ...

Photoexcited carrier relaxation dynamics in pentacene probed by ultrafast optical spectroscopy: Influence of morphology on relaxation processes

Verner Thorsmolle

We present a comparative study of ultrafast photoexcited state relaxation in pentacene single crystals and in pure and C-60-doped pentacene films using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. The photoinduced absorption spectra in pentacene crystals is consistent ...

Room temperature polariton lasing in a GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum well microcavity

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Raphaël Butté, Eric Feltin, Gabriel Christmann

The authors report room temperature polariton lasing at lambda similar to 345 nm in a hybrid AlInN/AlGaN multiple quantum well microcavity (MQW-MC) containing a GaN/AlGaN MQW active region, i.e., the achievement under nonresonant optical excitation of cohe ...

Gas traces measurement by photoacoustic spectroscopy using Helmholtz resonator-based sensors

Mario Mattiello

Photoacoustic spectroscopy is a well-established gas traces optical detection technique, which consists in the generation of an acoustic wave in the investigated gas compound excited by a modulated laser beam, and in the detection of this sound wave with a ...

Terahertz photonic crystal quantum cascade lasers

Romuald Houdré, Hua Zhang, Jérôme Faist

We combine photonic crystal and quantum cascade band engineering to create an in-plane laser at terahertz frequency. We demonstrate that such photonic crystal lasers strongly improve the performances of terahertz quantum cascade material in terms of thresh ...

Numerical modeling of planar periodic structures in electromagnetics

Katarina Blagovic

Periodic structures, such as frequency-selective surfaces (FSSs) and photonic band-gap (PBG) materials, exhibit total reflection in specific frequency bands while total transmission in other bands. They find numerous applications in a large field of the el ...

Quasi-Debye microwave loss as an intrinsic limitation of microwave performance of tunable components based on SrTiO3 and BaxSr1-xTiO3 ferroelectrics

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Konstantin Astafiev

A model of the quasi-Debye loss mechanism in SrTiO3 and Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 perovskite ferroelectrics at microwave frequencies is presented. The field dependence and the size of the field-induced quasi-Debye loss contribution in SrTiO3 and Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 system ...

Novel schemes for optical signal generation using laser injection locking with application to Brillouin sensing

Luc Thévenaz, Dario Alasia

Injection locking of two DFB semiconductors opens new possibilities to generate effective signals for optical sensing, in order to reach better performances. Pure wave forms can be generated with qualities exceeding those obtained using external modulators ...

White beam x-ray waveguide optics

We report a white beam x-ray waveguide (WG) experiment. A resonant beam coupler x-ray waveguide (RBC) is used simultaneously as a broad bandpass (or multibandpass) monochromator and as a beam compressor. We show that, depending on the geometrical propertie ...

Coherence properties of polaritons in semiconductor microcavities

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Ounsi El Daïf, Stefan Kundermann, Cristiano Ciuti, Michele Saba

In this work we present the coherent control of polariton parametric scattering with weak phase locked probe pulses. It is demonstrated that the signal emission arising from the parametric scattering is completely coherent for moderate excitation power, wh ...
