Magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), the procedure of raising the temperature of tumor cells using magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as heating agents, has proven successful in treating some types of cancer. However, the low heating power…
In recent decades, the laws of thermodynamics have been pushed down to smaller and smaller scales, within the field of stochastic thermodynamics and state-of-art experiments performed on mesoscopic systems. These measurements concern…
Spin relaxation between the two lowest-lying spin-states has been studied in the S=4 single molecule magnet Ni$_4$ under steady state conditions of low amplitude and continuous microwave irradiation. The relaxation rate was determined as a…
We investigate how a temperature reduction in z-direction influences the switching probability and the noise in heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) for a bit in bit-patterned media with dimensions d=5nm and h=10nm. Pure hard magnetic…
In a magnetization vs. temperature (M vs. T) experiment, the blocking region of a magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) assembly is the interval of T values were the system begins to respond to an applied magnetic field H when heating the sample from…
We present thermoelectric measurements of the heat dissipated due to ferromagnetic resonance of a Permalloy strip. A microwave magnetic field, produced by an on-chip coplanar strip waveguide, is used to drive the magnetization precession.…
The measurement of temperature with nanoscale spatial resolution is an emerging new technology and it has important impact in various fields. An ideal nanothermometer should not only be accurate, but also applicable over a wide temperature…
We present a high-sensitivity measurement technique for mechanical nanoresonators. Due to intrinsic nonlinear effects, different flexural modes of a nanobeam can be coupled while driving each of them on resonance. This mode-coupling scheme…
A common ploy to reduce the switching current and energy dissipation in spin-transfer-torque driven magnetization switching of shape-anisotropic single-domain nanomagnets is to employ magnets with low saturation magnetization $M_s$ and high…
We present the effect of temperature on the switching characteristics of a bistable nonlinear nanomechanical beam. At MHz-range frequencies, we find that it is possible to controllably change the state of the system between two stable…
We introduce a primary thermometer which measures the temperature of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in the sub-nK regime. We show, using quantum Fisher information, that the precision of our technique improves the state-of-the-art in…
A thermocouple of Au-Ni with only 2.5-micrometers-wide electrodes on a 30-nm-thick Si3N4 membrane was fabricated by a simple low-resolution electron beam lithography and lift off procedure. The thermocouple is shown to be sensitive to heat…
We present magnetization studies in a series of phase separated La$_{0.5}$Ca$%_{0.5}$MnO$_{3}$ samples, with different low temperature fractions of the ferromagnetic (FM) and charge ordered-antiferromagnetic (CO-AFM) phases. A particular…
This work builds on the previous introduction [1] of a coupled experimental-computational system devised to fully characterize the thermal behavior of complex 3D submicron electronic devices. The new system replaces the laser-based surface…
A novel approach to calibrate the sensitivity of a differential thermometer, consisting of several thermocouples connected in series (thermopile), has been developed. The goal of this method is to increase the accuracy of small temperature…
An experimentally feasible magnetometer based on a dual-coupling optomechanical system is proposed, where the radiation-pressure coupling transduces the magnetic signal to the optical phase, and the quadratic optomechanical interaction…
We measure the temperature, magnetic-field, and current dependence for the switching of nanomagnets by a spin-polarized current. Depending on current bias, switching can occur between either two static magnetic states or a static state and…
Metal nanoantennas supporting localized surface plasmon resonances have become an indispensable tool in bio(chemical) sensing and nanoscale imaging applications. The high plasmon-enhanced electric field intensity in the visible or near-IR…
An improved micro-SQUID technique is presented allowing us to measure the temperature dependence of the magnetisation switching fields of single nanoparticles well above the critical superconducting temperature of the SQUID. Our first…
We apply estimation theory to a system formed by two interacting trapped ions. By using the Fisher matrix formalism, we introduce a simple scheme for estimation of the temperature of the longitudinal vibrational modes of the ions. We use…
