Heat, particle and momentum confinement in L- and H-mode in deuterium, hydrogen and in D/H mixtures have been investigated in JET with the ITER-like wall (JET-ILW). The paper expands on previous work [1,2] by presenting new results on heat, momentum and pa ...
The main objective of this PhD thesis is to link the atomic scale structure to the catalytic properties of self-assembled nanostructures. The growth and characterization of these nanostructures was carried out in an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chamber initiall ...
Tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) are of considerable interest owing to their capability of low-power operation. Here, we demonstrate a novel type of TFET which is composed of a thin black phosphorus-tin diselenide (BP-SnSe2) heterostructure. This ...
Motivated to advance the renewable energy production and diversify the technologies for storable energy carriers, my work is concentrated on the characterization and the optimization of electrode morphologies applicable in photoelectrochemical water-splitt ...
In this thesis, I present an experimental molecular beam surface scattering study of dynamical processes involved when HCl molecules are scattered from Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces. I investigated vibrational excitation, translational inelasticity and diss ...
The combination of 3D echo planar imaging (3D-EPI) with a 2D-CAIPIRINHA undersampling scheme provides high flexibility in the optimization for spatial or temporal resolution. This flexibility can be increased further with the addition of a cylindrical exci ...
Fast ion confinement is crucial for the demonstration of the stellarator approach towards fu- sion energy. To study confinement of fast ions with today’s stellarators advanced RF heating schemes can be used to generate fast ions. Secondly, advanced RF heat ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is being prepared for its full energy exploitation during Run III, i.e. an increase of the beam energy beyond the present 6.5 TeV, targeting the maximum discovery potential attainable. This requires an increase of th ...
This article investigates the total ionizing dose (TID) degradation mechanisms of 16-nm bulk Si FinFETs at ultrahigh doses. n- and p-FinFETs with several channel lengths are irradiated up to 1 Grad(SiO2) and then annealed for 24 h at 100 degrees C. Irradia ...
Traditional cell assays report on the average results of a cell population. However, a wide range of new tools are being developed for a fundamental understanding of single cell's functionality. Nonetheless, the current tools are either limited in their th ...
