Time-resolved x-ray diffraction study of laser-induced shock and acoustic waves in single crystalline silicon

A rod of single crystalline silicon has been subjected to high-power nanosecond laser pulses inducing ultrasonic and shock waves traveling into the bulk of the material. Stroboscopic time-resolved high-energy x-ray diffraction measurements were carried out ...

Self-consistent ICRF simulations in fully shaped anisotropic plasmas

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Stephan Brunner, Martin Jucker, Nicolas Mellet

For self-consistent ICRF heating simulations, four codes have been coupled: VMEC[1] provides a fully shaped, anisotropic 3D MHD equilibrium (bi- Maxwellian distribution function), transferred to Boozer coordinates by TERPSICHORE[2]. The full-wave code LEMa ...

III-nitride based microcavities

Gabriel Christmann

This PhD thesis work describes the study of III-nitride based planar microcavities operating in the strong coupling regime at room temperature. The aim is to use the nonlinear emission properties of such samples in realistic devices. Furthermore these stud ...

Spin Amplitude Modulation Driven Magnetoelectric Coupling in the New Multiferroic FeTe2O5Br

Helmuth Berger

The magnetic and ferroelectric properties of the layered geometrically frustrated cluster compound FeTe2O5Br were investigated with single-crystal neutron diffraction and dielectric measurements. An incommensurate transverse amplitude modulated magnetic or ...

Suppression of the zero-order in off-axis digital holography through nonlinear filtering

Michaël Unser, Christian Depeursinge, Nicolas Pavillon, Jonas Kühn, Chandra Sekhar Seelamantula

We present experimental validation of a new reconstruction method for off-axis digital holographic microscopy (DHM). This method effectively suppresses the object auto-correlation — namely the zero-order term — from holographic data, thereby improving the ...

Sources and detectors of fast ions for basic devices

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Gennady Plyushchev

The physics of supra thermal test ions in turbulent plasmas can be conveniently studied in basic plasma physics devices, which allow high-resolution measurements of plasma and fast ion parameters and wave fields throughout the whole plasma cross-section. W ...

Experimental observation using particle image velocimetry of inertial waves in a rotating fluid

Inertial waves generated by a small oscillating disk in a rotating water filled cylinder are observed by means of a corotating particle image velocimetry system. The wave takes place in a stationary conical wavepacket, whose angle aperture depends on the o ...

Wave propagation and band-gap characteristics of chiral lattices

Alessandro Spadoni

Plane wave propagation in a chiral lattice is investigated through the application of Bloch's theorem. Two-dimensional dispersion relations are estimated and analyzed to illustrate peculiar properties of chiral or non-centrosymmetric configurations and inv ...

Lectures on the Orbital Stability of Standing Waves and Application to the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation

Charles Stuart

In the first part of these notes, we deal with first order Hamiltonian systems in the form Ju'(t) = del H(u(t)) where the phase space X may be in infinite dimensional so as to accommodate some partial differential equations. The Hamiltonian H is an element ...

Influence of residual disorder on the anticrossing of Bloch modes probed in k space

Romuald Houdré, Nicolas Le Thomas, Vasily Zabelin

We retrieve the dispersion properties of photonic crystal waveguides near the band edge with high experimental accuracy. The dispersion diagram of the waveguide modes in the complex-valued plane is directly measured in the far ﬁeld by using a Fourier space ...
