We investigate Tamm plasmon (TP) modes in a metal/semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) interface. A thin Ag (silver) layer with an optimized thickness (~ 55 nm from simulation) was deposited on nanoporous GaN DBRs fabricated…
Optical microscopy is without a doubt an essential component of life science research, but many objects of interest in biology are transparent. Chemical or immunological dyes, which can often be toxic, fluorescent transgenes, which require…
We have grown lead iron niobate thin films with composition Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 (PFN) on (0 0 1) SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The influence of the deposition conditions on the phase purity was studied. Due to similar…
We reported on a graphical domain engineering technique with the capability to fabricate macroscale domain structures with nanoscale spatial resolution in non-polar-cut lithium niobate thin film on insulators through the biased probe tip of…
We demonstrate that the resolution of three-dimensional (3D) real-space images obtained from Bragg x-ray coherent diffraction measurements is direction dependent. We propose and demonstrate the effectiveness of a metric to determine the…
The accurate and efficient prediction of crack propagation in dielectric materials is a critical challenge in structural health monitoring and the design of smart systems. This work presents a hybrid modeling framework that combines an…
It is known that the oblique helicoidal cholesteric structure (Ch$_{OH}$), which is formed in alternating electrical field applied to the chiral nematic phase (N*) at temperatures above the chiral twist-bend nematic phase (N*$_{tb}$), can…
Phase Contrast Imaging (PCI), Dark-Field (DF) and Directional Dark-Field (DDF) imaging are recent X-ray imaging modalities that have demonstrated their interest by providing access to information and contrasts different from those provided…
Strain engineering provides the ability to control the ground states and associated phase transition in the epitaxial films. However, the systematic study of intrinsic characters and their strain dependency in transition-metal nitrides…
Motivated by the realization of the Dirac point (DP) with a double-cone structure for optical field in the negative-zero-positive index metamaterial (NZPIM), the reflection, transmission, and Goos-H\"{a}nchen (GH) shifts inside the NZPIM…
X-ray imaging has conventionally relied upon attenuation to provide contrast. In recent years, two complementary modalities have been added; phase contrast and dark-field x-ray imaging, capturing weakly attenuating and sub-pixel sample…
Ptychography is a promising phase retrieval technique for visible light, X-ray and electron beams. Conventional ptychography reconstructs the amplitude and phase of an object light from a set of the diffraction intensity patterns obtained…
Neutron imaging has gained significant importance as a material characterisation technique and is particularly useful to visualise hydrogenous materials in objects opaque to other radiations. Particular fields of application include…
Refraction at a smooth interface is accompanied by momentum transfer normal to the interface. We show that corrugating an initially smooth, totally reflecting, non-metallic interface provides a momentum kick parallel to the surface, which…
We report on a new technique to split an atomic beam coherently with an easily adjustable splitting angle. In our experiment metastable helium atoms in the |{1s2s}^3S_1 M=1> state diffract from a polarization gradient light field formed by…
Increasing the sensitivity of light-pulse atom interferometers progressively relies on large-momentum transfer techniques. Precise control of such methods is imperative to exploit the full capabilities of these quantum sensors. One key…
We present ultrafast x-ray diffraction experiments on thin films of metallic SrRuO$_3$ (SRO) after their excitation with ultrashort intense laser pulses. Depending on the layer thickness, the data exhibit a transient splitting of the (002)…
Strain has a strong effect on the properties of materials and the performance of electronic devices. Their ever shrinking size translates into a constant demand for accurate and precise measurement methods with very high spatial resolution.…
Measurements achieved with ptychographic imaging are a special case of diffraction measurements. They are generated by illuminating small parts of a sample with, e.g., a focused X-ray beam. By shifting the sample, a set of far-field…
Grazing incidence x-ray scattering provides nanostructural information for thin film samples, but single images generally do not provide information on film thickness or the full complex index of refraction. Additionally, for thin films…
