Localized surface plasmons are charge density oscillations confined to metallic nanoparticles. Excitation of localized surface plasmons by an electromagnetic field at an incident wavelength where resonance occurs results in a strong light scattering and an ...
How is the future of automobility imagined today? What has structured such imaginary ? And what levers can steer its evolution towards a Post-Car World? These very three questions form the foundational motivations of this thesis.First, through a h ...
In a free-standing 400-nm-thick platelet of crystalline ZY-LiNbO3, narrow electrodes (500 nm) placed periodically with a pitch of a few microns can eXcite standing shear-wave bulk acoustic resonances (XBARs), by utilising lateral electric fields oriented p ...
We report a systematic study of the magnetoelectric (ME) voltage coefficient as a complex quantity in the particulate composite of ferroelectric solid solution 0.94Pb(Fe1/2N1/2)O-3-0.06PbTiO(3)(PFN-PT) with CoFe2O4(CFO) and NiFe2O4 (NFO) ferrites. The resu ...
Realtime is an investigation about china’s digital and urban infrastructure, practices and imaginary spaces. Realtime attempts to capture the pace, scale and depth of china’s complex and changing reality. ...
The parameter epsilon(K) describes CP violation in the neutral kaon system and is one of the most sensitive probes of new physics. The large uncertainties related to the charm-quark contribution to epsilon(K) have so far prevented a reliable standard-model ...
We construct a verifiable delay function (VDF). A VDF is a function whose evaluation requires running a given number of sequential steps, yet the result can be efficiently verified. They have applications in decentralised systems, such as the generation of ...
A novel approach for the detection of biomarkers in aqueous condition via differential impedance is presented. The binding of biomarkers onto functionalized inter-digital electrodes induces a change in the sensor impedance, both in its real and imaginary c ...
Following the original idea of Debye, we define and extract a gauge-invariant screening mass from the complex static in-medium heavy-quark potential V-Q (Q) over bar, recently obtained from lattice QCD. To this end we derive a formula using concepts from b ...
Robust quantum systems rely on having a protective environment with minimized relaxation channels. Super-conducting gaps play an important role in the design of such environments. The interaction of localized single spins with a conventional superconductor ...
