Hyperpolarizing Gases via Dynamic Nuclear Polarization and Sublimation

Rolf Gruetter, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Pascal Miéville, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe, Arnaud Comment, Sami Jannin, Paul Romeo Vasos, Riddhiman Sarkar, Puneet Ahuja, François Lazeyras

A high throughput method was designed to produce hyperpolarized gases by combining lowtemperature dynamic nuclear polarization with a sublimation procedure. It is illustrated by applications to 129Xe nuclear magnetic resonance in xenon gas, leading to a si ...

Superconducting parallel nanowire detector with photon number resolving functionality

Francesco Marsili, Alessandro Gaggero

We present a new photon number resolving detector (PNR), the Parallel Nanowire Detector (PND), which uses spatial multiplexing on a subwavelength scale to provide a single electrical output proportional to the photon number. The basic structure of the PND ...

Suspended-core fibres as optical gas sensing cells: study and implementation

Luc Thévenaz, Isabelle Dicaire

We have thoroughly studied and modelled many important aspects for the realization of gas-light interactions in suspended-core fibres. The fraction of the optical field propagating in holes could be calculated from the fibre geometry to predict the total a ...

Transport of methane and noble gases during gas push−pull tests in variably saturated porous media

Graciela Gonzalez Gil

The gas push−pull test (GPPT) is a single-well gas-tracer method to quantify in situ rates of CH4 oxidation in soils. To improve the design and interpretation of GPPT field experiments, gas component transport during GPPTs was examined in abiotic porous me ...

Transport of methane and noble gases during gas push-pull tests in dry porous media

Graciela Gonzalez Gil

A field method called the gas push-pull test (GPPT) was previously developed and tested for the in situ quantification of aerobic methane (CH4) oxidation by soil microorganisms. The GPPT consists of an injection followed by extraction of reactant and trace ...

Fully Electronic CMOS DNA Detection Array Based on Capacitance Measurement with On-Chip Analog-to-Digital Conversion

Carlotta Guiducci, Giampaolo Zuccheri

An 8 times 16 array of sensing micro-sites employs a fully-electrical label-free technique for DNA recognition using capacitance measurement and is fabricated in 0.5mum CMOS with added noble metal. Repeatability and parallel detection capability have been ...

Matrix effects on the optical response of silver nanoclusters

Sylvain Lecoultre, Alexandre Rydlo, Fabien Conus

We report absorption spectra for Ag7, Ag9, and Ag11 in an argon matrix grown at a temperature of 28 K and compare them with previous spectra of the same species measured in matrices of argon grown at lower temperatures as well as in neon matrices. We discu ...

Formation of Metal Nano- and Micro-patterns on Self-Assembled Monolayers Using Pulsed Laser Deposition through Nanostencils and Electroless Deposition

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart

Patterns of noble-metal structures on top of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au and SiO2 substrates have been prepared following two approaches. The first approach consists of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of Pt, Pd, Au, or Cu through nano- and microst ...

A Spirocyclic P-S Cage Cation: Synthesis and Formation of P7S6I2+

Upon ionization of the P4S3I2 molecule with Ag[Al(OR)4], a highly reactive sulfonium cation P4S3I+ is generated (NMR simulated and assigned). At -80 °C this cation reacts with additional P4S3I2 to give either an iodophosphonium P4S3I3+ cation (NMR simulate ...
