Understanding the dynamics of charge exchange between a solid surface and a liquid is fundamental to various situations, ranging from nanofiltration to catalysis and electrochemistry. Charge transfer is ultimately determined by…
Ultrafast light-matter interaction has emerged as a powerful tool to control and probe the macroscopic properties of functional materials, especially two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides which can form different structural…
At the few-atom-thick limit, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit a host of attractive electronic optical, and structural properties. The possibility to pattern these properties has a great impact on applied and fundamental…
The energy dependent thermoelectric response of a single molecule contains valuable information about its transmission function and its excited states. However, measuring it requires devices that can efficiently heat up one side of the…
Hydrogen transport in the anode of a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has been studied with a modulation technique relating the hydrogen flow-rate $(\tilde{Q}_{H2})$ and the faradaic current $(\tilde{I})$, called…
We have realized a high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer combined with a magneto-optical trap. The spectrometer enables excellent optical access to the trapped atomic cloud using specifically devised acceleration and deflection…
Optical microscopy provides rich spatio-temporal information characterizing in vivo molecular motion. However, effective forces and other parameters used to summarize molecular motion change over time in live cells due to latent state…
We report on the short-time dynamics in colloidal mixtures made up of monomers and dimers highly confined between two glass-plates. At low concentrations, the experimental measurements of colloidal motion agree well with the solution of the…
Using a holographic approach, we experimentally study the near-field intensity distribution of light squeezed through an isolated subwavelength plasmonic hole in a thin metallic film. Our experiments revealed an in-plane electric dipole…
Femtosecond (fs)-resolved photoemission electron micrographs of single and few-layer MoSe$_2$ track exciton dynamics in this model 2D quantum material system with joint nanometer (nm)-fs resolution. We illustrate the latter using two-photon…
We present a novel scheme to detect itinerant microwave radiation at the single photon level. Using existing Josephson-photonics devices, where two microwave cavities are coupled by a dc-voltage biased superconducting junction, we…
We discuss recent advances in the development of cryogenic gaseous photomultipliers (GPM), for possible use in dark matter and other rare-event searches using noble-liquid targets. We present results from a 10 cm diameter GPM coupled to a…
Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy provides information on coupling and energy transfer between excited states on ultrafast timescales. Only recently, incoherent fluorescence detection has made it possible to combine this method with…
We present a feature-resolved methodology to analyse the photoluminescence dynamics of single emitters using a combination of lifetime, spectral, and photon correlation analyses. By integrating conventional ensemble photon statistics…
We use plasmon rulers to follow the conformational dynamics of a single protein for up to 24 h at a video rate. The plasmon ruler consists of two gold nanospheres connected by a single protein linker. In our experiment, we follow the…
Optical emitters strongly coupled to photons propagating in one-dimensional waveguides are a promising platform for optical quantum information processing. Here, we present a theoretical study of the scattering of two indistinguishable…
The integrated HydroKinetic Model (iHKM) is applied to analyse the results of direct photon spectra as well as elliptic and triangular flow measurements in 200A GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC for different centrality bins. Experiments detect…
Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we experimentally and theoretically investigate isolated platinum phthalocyanine (PtPc) molecules adsorbed on atomically thin NaCl(100) vapor deposited on Au(111). We obtain good agreement between…
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are widely deployed at neutrino and dark matter experiments for photon counting. When multiple photons hit a PMT consecutively, their photo-electron (PE) pulses pile up to hinder the precise measurements of the…
Quantum emitters in solid-state crystals have recently attracted a lot of attention due to their simple applicability in optical quantum technologies. The polarization of single photons generated by quantum emitters is one of the key…
