We analyze the low temperature photoluminescence properties of two multi-layer stacking of GaN/AlN quantum dots. We report drastic differences of linewidths between continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments. After the pulsed excitatio ...
In biological investigations, many protocols using optical trapping call for the possibility to trap a large number of particles simultaneously. Interference fringes provide a solution for massively parallel micro-manipulation of mesoscopic objects. Concur ...
Phase transitions to quantum condensed phases - such as Bose - Einstein condensation (BEC), superfluidity, and superconductivity - have long fascinated scientists, as they bring pure quantum effects to a macroscopic scale. BEC has, for example, famously be ...
We investigate the consequences of correlated hopping on the ground state properties of hard-core bosons on a square lattice as revealed by extensive exact diagonalizations and quantum Monte Carlo simulations. While for noninteracting hard-core bosons the ...
We analyze the room temperature photoluminescence properties of several multilayer stackings of GaN/AlN quantum dots. We report drastic differences of emission energies and linewidths between continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments. ...
The onset of undamped wave propagation in noisy self-oscillatory media is identified with a Hopf bifurcation of the corresponding effective dynamical system obtained by properly renormalizing the effect of noise. We illustrate this fact on a dense array of ...
This paper presents the conceptual and technical aspects of a system in development that precisely determines athlete's trajectory through a course. Carrier phase-based (CP-DGPS) positioning represents core of the system, while tri-acial accelerometer and ...
Multiple experiments (17O NMR, 1H NMR, and EPR) have been performed in the past to understand the microscopic parameters that control the magnetic relaxation rate enhancement induced by paramagnetic molecules on neighboring water protons, the so-called rel ...
Gain-of-function experiments have demonstrated the potential of Notch signals to expand primitive hematopoietic progenitors, but whether Notch physiologically regulates hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) homeostasis in vivo is unclear. To answer this question, ...
Time-resolved x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy with picosecond temporal resolution is a new method to observe electronic and geometric structures of short-lived reaction intermediates. It combines an intense femtosecond laser source sync ...
