This thesis investigates the magnetic properties of single atoms and molecules adsorbed on thin magnesium oxide decoupling layers, grown on a silver single crystal. To address these systems experimentally, we use a low temperature scanning tunneling micros ...
Higher magic angle spinning (MAS) frequencies than currently available are desirable to improve spectral resolution in NMR and EPR systems. While conventional strategies employ pneumatic spinning limited by fluid dynamics, this paper demonstrates the devel ...
Colloids self-organize into icosahedral clusters composed of a Mackay core and an anti-Mackay shell under spherical confinement to minimize the free energy. This study explores the variation of surface arrangements of colloids in icosahedral clusters, focu ...
Single-particle tracking and optical tweezers are powerful techniques for studying diverse processes at the microscopic scale. The stochastic behavior of a microscopic particle contains information about its interaction with surrounding molecules, and an o ...
This paper presents a low power microwave oscillator designed as sensor for electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Low power consumption is necessary for low temperature operation. Additionally, lower power consumption allows for a lower microwave mag ...
Beyond their original capability to grab and hold tiny objects, optical tweezers have emerged as a powerful tool to investigate fundamental physics at microscopic scales. A precise characterization of the optical trap is one of the key requirements in such ...
Light matter interaction can be boosted by several orders of magnitude by tailoring the photonic environment, thus enabling a wide range of applications. One particular example are plasmonic nanostructures that support localized surface plasmon polariton ( ...
Recent years have seen spectacular developments in the domain of nano-optics.
Alongside the well-known techniques of super-resolution microscopy progress
in nanofabrication has enabled important improvements in the fields
of optical imaging and spectros ...
In quantum mechanics, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle places a fundamental limit in the measurement precision for certain pairs of physical quantities, such as position and momentum, time and energy or amplitude and phase. Due to the Heisenberg uncert ...
We combine conformer-selective, cryogenic infrared spectroscopy, quantum mechanical computations, and 18O substitution at the reducing end to determine the structural preferences of protonated glucosamine in the gas phase. Cryogenic infrared-infrared (IR-I ...
