Currently available temperature measurements or imaging at nano-micro scale are limited to fluorescent molecules and luminescent nanocrystals, whose spectral properties respond to temperature variation. The principle of operation of these…
Low-temperature specific heat was measured on the BaFe1.9Ni0.1As2 single crystals with critical transi-tion temperature Tc = 20.1 K. A clear specific heat jump with the value \DeltaC/T|Tc \approx 23 mJ/mol K^2 has been observed. In…
Optical refrigeration using anti-Stokes photoluminescence is now well established, especially for rare-earth-doped solids where cooling to cryogenic temperatures has recently been achieved. The cooling efficiency of optical refrigeration is…
Future cryogenic experiments searching for rare events require reliable, efficient and robust techniques for the detection of photons at temperatures well below that to which low-temperature photomultipliers (PMT) were characterised.…
Measurements of the temperature of Mo shocked to ~60 GPa and then released to ~28 GPa were previously attempted using high explosive driven flyer plates and pyrometry. Analysis of the radiance traces at different wavelengths indicates that…
Enabling temperature dependent experiments in Atomic Force Microscopy is of great interest to study materials and surface properties at the nanoscale. By studying Curie temperature of multiferroic materials, temperature based phase…
Currently, there is great interest in laser cooling of barium monofluoride (BaF) molecules for precision tests of fundamental symmetries. We use high-resolution absorption spectroscopy to characterize several as yet imprecisely known…
We studied light assisted collisions of Tm atoms in a magneto optical trap (MOT) for the first time, working on a weak cooling transition at 530.7 nm $(4f^{13}(^2F^0)6s^2,J=7/2,F=4$ to $4f^{12}(^3H_6)5d_{5/2}6s^2,J=9/2,F=5)$. We observed a…
By using high pressure and high temperature (3.7 GPa, 1120 $^{\circ}$C) synthesis technique, we have grown (Cu,C)Ba$_2$Ca$_3$Cu$_4$O$_{11+\delta}$ single crystals. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, resistivity and…
We report on an apparatus for cooling and trapping of neutral dysprosium. We characterize and optimize the performance of our Zeeman slower and 2D molasses cooling of the atomic beam by means of Doppler spectroscopy on a 136 kHz broad…
Magneto-optical trapping of molecules has thus far been restricted to molecules with $^2\Sigma$ electronic ground states. These species are chemically reactive and only support a simple laser cooling scheme from their first excited…
We demonstrate that a Kalman filter applied to estimate the position of an optically levitated nanoparticle, and operated in real-time within a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), is sufficient to perform closed-loop parametric feedback…
We demonstrate Doppler-free saturated absorption spectroscopy of cold molecular radicals formed by laser ablation inside a cryogenic buffer gas cell. By lowering the temperature, congested regions of the spectrum can be simplified, and by…
We have successfully loaded a magneto-optic trap for Yb atoms from a thermal source without the use of a Zeeman slower. The source is placed close to the trapping region so that it provides a large flux of atoms that can be cooled and…
Fiber-based multi-wavelength lasers have a variety of important applications in telecommunication and meteorology. We experimentally study a fiber loop laser with an integrated Erbium doped fiber (EDF). The output optical spectrum is…
Expanding the operational range of luminescent thermometers that utilize thermally induced structural phase transitions in lanthanide-doped materials necessitates the exploration of novel host matrices with diverse thermal behaviors. In…
A thermal atomic beam of dysprosium (Dy) atoms is cooled using the $4f^{10}6s^2 (J=8) \to 4f^{10}6s6p (J=9)$ transition at 421 nm. The cooling is done via a standing light wave orthogonal to the atomic beam. Efficient transverse cooling to…
The development of visual luminescent thermometers capable of exhibiting pronounced color changes in response to temperature variations requires the rational design of phosphors with high spectrally selective thermal sensitivity. In this…
We describe a compact calorimeter that opens ultra-low temperature heat capacity studies of small metal crystals in moderate magnetic fields. The performance is demonstrated on the canonical heavy Fermion metal YbRh2Si2. Thermometry is…
Aims. In this work we develop a technique to obtain high precision determinations of both metallicity and effective temperature of M dwarfs in the optical. Methods. A new method is presented that makes use of the information of 4104 lines…
