Spin Evolution in the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, François Reuse, Klaus Maschke

The first part of this article attempts to highlight in chronological order some prominent papers that have direct connexion with the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. This timeline successively points to the role of level crossing, the notions of gauge fiel ...

Quantum vibronic effects on the electronic properties of solid and molecular carbon

Michele Ceriotti, François Gygi, Han Yang

We study the effect of quantum vibronic coupling on the electronic properties of carbon allotropes, including molecules and solids, by combining path integral first principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) with a colored noise thermostat. In addition to avoidi ...

Two-dimensional modelling of transient capillary driven damped micro-oscillations and self-alignment of objects in microassembly

François Gallaire

In the fields of microgripping and microassembly, the self-alignment motion of a solid micro-object linked by a liquid meniscus to a substrate or a tool is an inexpensive way to overcome the current limitations of the assembly processes at microscale by ge ...

Quantum yield and brightness

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Brightness has different meaning in different contexts and some of these are reviewed. The scientific definition of brightness does not represent our perception. The current definition is that from the IUPAC Gold Book and is mainly restricted to solutions. ...

Homonuclear Decoupling in H-1 NMR of Solids by Remote Correlation

David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Bruno Simões de Almeida

The typical linewidths of H-1 NMR spectra of powdered organic solids at 111 kHz magic-angle spinning (MAS) are of the order of a few hundred Hz. While this is remarkable in comparison to the tens of kHz observed in spectra of static samples, it is still th ...

Visco-elastic behavior of blended cement pastes at early ages

Karen Scrivener, Zhangli Hu, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire, Pietro Lura

This study aims at elucidating the visco-elastic behavior of hardening blended cement pastes, focusing on uni-axial basic compressive creep tests at early loading ages. Cement pastes with Portland cement only or blended with quartz or fly ash (both at a su ...

Fast and ultrafast electron microscopies for skyrmions and plasmonics

Gabriele Berruto

In recent years, topology gained a central role in physics. We learnt that energetics could be often explained better by classes of objects defined by having qualitative differences. In today's jargon, we say they are topologically distinct. The process of ...

Semiconductor Nanowires: To Grow or Not to Grow?

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral

Semiconductor nanowires have demonstrated exciting properties for nanophotonics, sensors, energy technologies and end-of-roadmap and beyond-roadmap electronic devices. Fabrication schemes for nanowires are varied, but they fall into three general categorie ...

Tailored Polarizing Hybrid Solids with Nitroxide Radicals Localized in Mesostructured Silica Walls

David Lyndon Emsley, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Basile Vuichoud, Pierrick Berruyer, Mathieu Baudin, David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan, David Baudouin, Matthieu Cavaillès

Hyperpolarization by dynamic nuclear polarization relies on the microwave irradiation of paramagnetic radicals dispersed in molecular glasses to enhance the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals of target molecules. However, magnetic or chemical interac ...

Unveiling the Nature of Charge Carrier Interactions by Electroabsorption Spectroscopy: An Illustration with Lead-Halide Perovskites

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Joël Teuscher, Marine Eva Fedora Bouduban, Andrés Burgos Caminal

Unravelling the nature of the interactions between photogenerated charge carriers in solar energy conversion devices is key to enhance performance. In this perspective, we discuss electroabsorption spectroscopy (EAS), as the spectral bandshape of the elect ...
