A Cavity-Microscope for Quantum Simulations with Locally-Controllable All-to-All Interactions

This thesis presents the development, construction, and benchmark of an experimental platform that combines cold fermionic 6Li atoms with locally controllable light-matter interactions. To enable local control, a new device, the cavity-microscope, was crea ...

Phase resolved characterization of nanoscale features in optical microstructures

Michail Symeonidis

In this study, we apply interferometric microscopy to study the phase, alongside the intensity, of the light field transmitted through a wide variety of samples. Additionally, we conduct those interferometric measurements at different wavelengths within th ...

Carbon Nanotube Array Based Binary Gabor Zone Plate Lenses

Sunan Deng, Chaohui Li

Diffractive zone plates have a wide range of applications from focusing x-ray to extreme UV radiation. The Gabor zone plate, which suppresses the higher-order foci to a pair of conjugate foci, is an attractive alternative to the conventional Fresnel zone p ...

Light fields behind microstructures: study of the Babinet-principle in the Fresnel regime

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim, Krishnaparvathy Puthankovilakam

The Babinet’s principle is a general theorem that holds for electromagnetic waves and is often applied to diffraction of light. Diffraction pattern of a body and that of the complement body are compared and the sum of both radiation patterns must be the sa ...

RANS computations of tip vortex cavitation

Mohamed Farhat, Matthieu Dreyer

Some two-dimensional (2D) exfoliated zeolites are single- or near single-unit cell thick silicates that can function as molecular sieves. Although they have already found uses as catalysts, adsorbents and membranes precise determination of their thickness ...

Delivery of ultrashort spatially focused pulses through a multimode fiber for two photon endoscopic imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado

Due to their high number of supported modes, multimode optical fibers carry large amount of spatio-temporal information. However, propagation of a light pulse through a multimode optical fiber suffers from spatial distortions due to superposition of the va ...

Phase Anomalies in Micro-Optics

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We present a comprehensive review on the latest research activities that explore the Gouy phase and indicate the recent experimental progresses for its observations in studies that rely on a longitudinal-differential interferometer. The latter is a far-fie ...

Prospects of warm dense matter research at HiRadMat facility at CERN using 440 MeV SPS proton beam

Juan Blanco Sancho, Rudiger Schmidt

In this paper we present numerical simulations of heating of a solid copper cylinder by the 440 GeV proton beam delivered by the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN. The beam is made of 288 proton bunches while each bunch comprises of 1.15.10(11) so tha ...

Hard-X-ray Zone Plates: Recent Progress

Giorgio Margaritondo

The technology to focus hard-X-rays (photon energy larger than 1-2 keV) has made great progress in the past three years. The progress was particularly spectacular for lenses based on the Fresnel zone plate concept. The spatial resolution notably increased ...

Full-field microimaging with 8 keV X-rays achieves a spatial resolutions better than 20 nm

Giorgio Margaritondo

Fresnel zone plates (450 nm thick Au, 25 nm outermost zone width) used as objective lenses in a full field transmission reached a spatial resolution better than 20 nm and 1.5% efficiency with 8 keV photons. Zernike phase contrast was also realized without ...
