Designing molecular organic semiconductors with distinct frontier orbitals is key for the development of devices with desirable properties. Generating defined organic nanostructures with atomic precision can be accomplished by on-surface…
Strong electromagnetic pulses (EMP) are generated from intense laser interactions with solid-density targets, and can be guided by the target geometry, specifically through conductive connections to the ground. We present an experimental…
The optical properties of metallic nanoparticles are dominated by localized surface plasmons (LSPs). Their properties only depend on the constituting material, the size and shape of the nano-object as well as its surrounding medium. In…
We present infrared (IR) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of individual star-forming regions in four extremely metal poor (EMP) galaxies with metallicity Z around Zsun/10 as observed by the Herschel Space Observatory. With the good…
The electromagnetic scattering from interconnections of high-permittivity dielectric thin wires with sizes smaller than (or almost equal to) the operating wavelength is investigated. A simple lumped element model for the polarization…
Van der Waals (vdW) materials exhibit intriguing structural, electronic and photonic properties. Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS) within Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM) allows for nanoscale mapping of such…
The exotic internal structure of polar topologies in multi-ferroic materials offers a rich landscape for materials science research. As the spatial scale of these entities are often sub-atomic in nature, aberration corrected transmission…
Very recently, borophene has been attracting extensive and ongoing interest as the new wonder material with structural polymorphism and superior attributes, showing that the structural imperfection of line defects (LDs) occurs widely at the…
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) normally have fixed or moving structures with cross-sections of the order of microns ($\mu m$) and lengths of the order of tens or hundreds of microns. These structures are often plates or array of…
The defect in diamond formed by a vacancy surrounded by three nearest-neighbor nitrogen atoms and one carbon atom, $\mathrm{N}_{3}\mathrm{V}$, is found in $\approx98\%$ of natural diamonds. Despite $\mathrm{N}_{3}\mathrm{V}^{0}$ being the…
Using a semiclassical model which incorporates tunneling and Coulomb field effects, the origin of the unexpected low-energy structure (LES) in above-threshold ionization spectrum observed in recent experiments [C. I. Blaga et al., Nature…
Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is now the primary tool for exploring functional materials on the atomic level. Often, features of interest are highly localized in specific regions in the material, such as ferroelectric…
The non-destructive characterization of nanoscale devices, such as those based on semiconductor nanowires, in terms of functional potentials is crucial for correlating device properties with their morphological/materials features, as well…
Here we discuss the theory and analyze in detail the guidance properties of linear arrays of metamaterial/plasmonic small particles as nano-scale optical nanotransmission lines, including the effect of material loss. Under the assumption of…
Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) coupled with scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is a powerful technique to determine materials composition and bonding with high spatial resolution. Noise is often a limitation…
Three-dimensional charge density maps computed by first-principles methods provide information about atom positions and the bonds between them, data which is particularly valuable when trying to understand the properties of point defects,…
We theoretically investigate the interaction of near-infrared few cycle laser pulses of moderate intensity with nano-scale metal tips. Macroscopic field enhancement leads to coherent electron emission from the tip apex. Electron spectra are…
Focusing electromagnetic energy to sub-wavelength dimensions has become an increasingly active field of research for a variety of applications such as Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR), nanolithography, and nanoscale optical…
