This thesis reports measurements at the single atom scale by using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). Different sample systems where analyzed with normal conducting and superconducting tips. Chapter 2 presents the t ...
We analyze the transport through a narrow ballistic superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor Josephson contact with nonideal transmission at the superconductor–normal-metal interfaces, e.g., due to insulating layers, effective mass steps, or band misfits ...
We report on the ab-plane optical reflectance of an iodine-intercalated Bi1.9Pb0.1Sr2CaCu2O8+delta single crystal in the 80-40000 cm(-1) (10 meV-5 eV) frequency range and at temperatures between 10 and 300 K. As compared to the iodine-free Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+de ...
We have fabricated YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7/ ramp-type junctions incorporating a barrier layer of NdGaO/sub 3/ with a nominal thickness of 2 nm. The junctions exhibit pronounced Josephson effects and operate up to 82 K. The characteristics are well descr ...

This work reports on the analysis of high voltage lateral devices. Two different architectures, self-aligned LDMOS and non-self-aligned XDMOS are presented and used in this work. For the separation of the physical effects that take place inside the HV devi ...
The subject of this thesis is the study of the structure and function of the human muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), which is a typical member of the large class of ligand-gated ion channels. Appropriate techniques, like site-directed mutage ...
Spin-dependent ballistic transport in a mesoscopic two-dimensional electron system with two metallic ferromagnetic electrodes is studied using the Landauer-Büttiker formalism. Our calculations predict a pronounced spin-valve effect in the ballistic regime ...
We report on the ab-plane polarized reflectance of an untwinned (Bi1.57Pb0.43)Sr2CaCu2O8+delta single crystal over the frequency range from 80 to 32 000 cm(-1) (10 meV-4 eV) at temperatures between 10 and 300 K. We find a clear anisotropy in the ab-plane o ...
Low-frequency dynamic impedance [σ−1(ω,T)≡(σ1+iσ2)−1] measurements on Josephson junction arrays found that σ1∼|lnω|, σ2∼const. This implies anomalously sluggish vortex mobilities μV(ω)∼σ−11, and is in conflict with general dynamical scaling expressions. We ...
Smooth muscle cell calcium dynamics and diameter were measured in intact pressurized rat mesenteric artery segments during vasoconstriction and vasomotion. Arteries showed a certain norepinephrine (NE) threshold (0.3-0.4 microM) for the onset of vasomotion ...
