We have recently developed a colloidal route to vanadium sesquioxide (V2O3) nanocrystals with a metastable bixbyite crystal structure. In addn. to being one of the first reported observations of the bixbyite phase in V2O3, it is also one of the first succe ...
The ability to switch ferroics (ferro-, ferri-, antiferromagnets, ferroelectrics, multiferroics) between two stable bit states is one of the keystones of modern data storage technology. Due to many new ideas, originating from fundamental research during th ...
An optical read-out technique is demonstrated that enables mapping the time-dependent electrostatic potential in the tunnel junction of a scanning tunneling microscope with millivolt and nanosecond accuracy. We measure the time-dependent intensity of plasm ...
We present our deep Y-band imaging data of a two square degree field within the F22 region of the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey. The observations were conducted using the WIRCam instrument mounted at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT). The total on-sky time ...
Although optical technology provides the best solution for the transmission of information, all-optical devices must satisfy several qualitative criteria to be used as logic elements. In particular, cascadability is difficult to obtain in optical systems, ...

We report more than 30dB second harmonic generation enhancement in SiN waveguide by all-optical writing of a persistent χ(2) grating. Phase matching peaks are observed for different writing wavelengths. ...
This experiment is the first test of the concept for a novel attitude determination sensor in freefall, that utilizes the Earth`s gravity gradient as a reference. Current sensors require multiple optical heads with access on all faces of a satellite that m ...
