The multi-component fluid closure derived by Zhdanov (2002 Transport Processes in Multicomponent Plasma (London: Taylor and Francis)) is implemented in the fluid code SOLEDGE3X-EIRENE to deal with arbitrary edge plasma composition. The closure assumes no d ...
Continuous development of thin film deposition technologies is essential for the fabrication of films that meet the specific requirements of their target applications and working conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the number of accessible a ...
SPIDER is the negative ion source testbed for ITER neutral beam injector. It is currently the largest negative ion source ever built, equipped with a 100 keV accelerator, aiming at producing a negative ion beam with an extracted current density in hydrogen ...
Hafnium Carbide (HfC) is a refractory ceramic known for its exceptional properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. This project investigates the potential utilization of HfC in Micro or Nano Electromechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS) and e ...
Epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) materialshave attracted great interestdue to their exotic linear and nonlinear responses, which makes itsignificant to tune ENZ wavelengths for wavelength-dependent applications.However, studies to achieve tunability in a wide spect ...
This work addresses the need for precise control of thin film sputtering processes to enable thin film material tailoring on the example of zinc tin nitride (ZTN) thin films deposited via microwave plasma-assisted high power reactive magnetron sputtering ( ...
Near-field mapping has been widely used to study hyperbolic phonon-polaritons in van der Waals crystals. However, an accurate measurement of the polaritonic loss remains challenging because of the inherent complexity of the near-field signal and the substr ...

A quantitative analysis of stress in indium tin oxide (ITO) films with varying thicknesses was conducted using high-precision stylus profilometry. The experimental results revealed a transition of the stress type from tensile to compressive as the ITO film ...
An integrated energetic particle transport model has been constructed in JET plasmas constrained by experimental fast ion loss measurements. The model incorporates a synthetic fast ion loss detector identical to JET's thin-foil Faraday cup fast ion loss de ...
