Diffraction properties of thin films of dewetted cyanine dye droplets are investigated and related to the complex refractive index. Strong changes in the index of refraction are often found near the absorption edge of organic dyes. Within a small window of ...
In this thesis, I describe the design and implementation of the first state-to-state surface scattering experiments for methane from clean single crystalline surfaces in ultrahigh vacuum. The experiments use infrared laser pumping to prepare the incident C ...
We derive and discuss general physical bounds on the electromagnetic scattering and absorption of passive structures. Our theory, based on passivity and power conservation, quantifies the minimum and maximum allowed scattering for an object that absorbs a ...
CAMEA (Countinuous Angle Multiple Energy Analyser) is a new concept for analysing inelastically scattered neutrons with high efficiency. It contains many (up to 10) vertically focusing analyser arrays behind each other, analysing the scattered neutrons wit ...
The Cold chopper and CAMEA spectrometers are in many ways equivalent. One uses several incoming energies combined with a continuous outgoing energy band while the other use a continuous incoming band and several outgoing energies, and both have big angular ...
We analyze the constraints governing absorption and scattering of arbitrary sensors or receiving antennas. Our findings bring forward interesting physical limitations on the amount of accessible absorption in a low-scattering sensor and suggest practical w ...
In most cases, a surface is not ideally smooth. It rather contains regular and irregular dents, bumps and other textures that influence the reflection of the incident wave. A reflection on such a corrugated surface causes a frequency-dependent redirection ...
For electronic transport at the nanoscale, coherent scattering at defects plays an important role. Therefore, the capability of visualizing the influence of defects on the conductivity of single atomic junctions may benefit the development of future nano-e ...
We present a comparison between sum frequency scattering (SFS) and reflection mode sum frequency generation (R-SFG). We have used scattering theory to describe both scattering experiments as well as reflection mode experiments. The interfacial vibrational ...
We study nontrivial applications of the reduced basis method (RBM) for electromagnetic applications with an emphasis on scattering and the estimation of radar cross section (RCS). The method and several extensions are explained with two examples with diffe ...
