The ITER Electron Cyclotron Heating and Current Drive Upper Launcher, developed by the ECHUL-CA Consortium of Euratom Associations (CRPP, CNR, ITER-NL, IPF, IPP, KIT and Politecnico di Milano), is presently in its final design phase. The study presented he ...
The objective of this PhD thesis is the development of a microfluidic platform for the real-time measurements of the mechanical properties of biological analytes at the single entity level.
The systems developed for these purposes consist of piezoelectrica ...
EuroCirCol is a conceptual design study of a post-LHC, Future Circular Hadron Collider (FCC-hh) with 50 TeV of beam energy and 100 km long, which aims to expand the current energy and luminosity frontiers. The vacuum chamber of the FCC-hh will have to cope ...
Micro- and nano-electromechanical systems (M/NEMS) have demonstrated outstanding sensing capabilities down to the yoctogram (10(-24) g) scale in vacuum environment and cryogenic temperatures. In order to bring such extraordinary resolution levels into the ...
The rail link between Geneva Cornavin Station, Eaux-Vives Station and Annemasse (CEVA) is currently under construction including a cut-and-cover tunnel built by slurry walls located in the alluvium of the Foron River. The covered trench cuts the groundwate ...
We present design and performance of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) that operates at temperatures down to 10 mK providing ultimate energy resolution on the atomic scale. The STM is attached to a dilution refrigerator with direct access to an ultra h ...
With preparation of Hi-Lumi LHC fully underway, and the FCC machines under study, accelerators will reach unprecedented energies and along with it very large amount of synchrotron radiation (SR). This will desorb photoelectrons and molecules from accelerat ...
In accelerator magnet design, important criteria are the magnetic field distribution and the magnetic field quality. Accelerator magnets are usually designed for the ideal case in which no magnetic material is present in the field region. In practice, howe ...

The vacuum deposition of complex functional molecules and nanoparticles by thermal sublimation is often hindered due to their extremely low vapor pressure. This especially impedes the application of ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) based analytical and surface modif ...
In this paper, the authors present a breakthrough extension of the stencil lithography tool and method. In the standard stencil lithography static mode, material is deposited through apertures in a membrane (stencil) on a substrate which is clamped to the ...
