One of the key systems of a Muon Collider (MC) - seen as the most exciting option for the energy frontier machine in the post-LHC era - is its interaction region (IR). Designs of its optics, magnets and machine-detector interface are…
We present an in-depth study of the spin-orbit (SO) interactions occurring in inversion-asymmetric two-dimensional hole gases at semiconductor heterointerfaces. We focus on common semiconductors such as GaAs, InAs, InSb, Ge, and Si. We…
Using polarized X-rays, we compare the electronic and magnetic properties of a La(2/3)Sr(1/3)MnO(3)(LSMO)/SrTiO(3)(STO) and a modified LSMO/LaMnO(3)(LMO)/STO interface. Using the technique of X-ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS), we…
Muon radiography, also known as muography, is a non-destructive geophysical technique for the study of the internal structure of large objects such as volcanoes. This is possible by constructing an image based on the differential absorption…
The performance demands of future particle-physics experiments investigating the high-energy frontier pose a number of new challenges, forcing us to find improved solutions for the detection, identification, and measurement of final-state…
Neutral silicon-carbon divacancy (V$_{Si}$V$_{C}$) in cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) is a promising class of point defects for quantum technologies based on active crystalline centers. Within the theoretical framework of spin-polarized…
Defect spins in silicon carbide have become promising platforms with respect to quantum information processing and quantum sensing. Indeed, the optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) of defect spins is the cornerstone of the…
We propose a new approach to explore the neutral-current non-standard neutrino interactions (NSI) in atmospheric neutrino experiments using oscillation dips and valleys in reconstructed muon observables, at a detector like ICAL that can…
One of the biggest challenges impeding the progress of Metal-Oxide-Silicon (MOS) quantum dot devices is the presence of disorder at the Si/SiO$_2$ interface which interferes with controllably confining single and few electrons. In this work…
Spin-orbitronic devices can integrate memory and logic by exploiting spin-charge interconversion (SCI), which is optimized by design and materials selection. In these devices, such as the magnetoelectric spin-orbit (MESO) logic, interfaces…
We report on the structural and electronic properties of the interface between the multiferoic oxide YMnO$_3$ and wide band-gap semiconductor GaN studied with the Hubbard-corrected local spin density approximation (LSDA+U) to…
Complex oxide functionality, such as ferroelectricity, magnetism or superconductivity is often achieved in epitaxial thin-film geometries. Oxygen vacancies tend to be the dominant type of defect in these materials but a fundamental…
Electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) and near-zero field magnetoresistance (NZFMR) are techniques that probe defect states at dielectric interfaces critical for metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) electronic devices such as the…
The characteristics of shallow hydrogen-like muonium (Mu) states in nominally undoped ZnO and CdS (0001) crystals have been studied close to the surface at depths in the range of 10 nm - 180 nm by using low-energy muons, and in the bulk…
Muon scattering tomography is a non-destructive technique used to image different materials by utilizing natural cosmic ray muons. Typically it requires position-sensitive detectors with a sub-millimeter resolution to effectively…
Raman spectra of CaCuO2/SrTiO3 superlattices show clear spectroscopic marker of two structures formed in CaCuO2 at the interface with SrTiO3. For non-superconducting superlattices, grown in low oxidizing atmosphere, the 425 cm-1 frequency…
Muon spin spectroscopy is one of the most powerful tools to investigate the microscopic properties of superconductors. In this manuscript, an overview on some of the main achievements obtained by this technique in the iron-based…
The application of the muon-spin rotation/relaxation ($\mu$SR) technique for studying type-I superconductivity is discussed. In the intermediate state, i.e. when a type-I superconducting sample with non-zero demagnetization factor $N$ is…
Investigation of the interfacial electronic properties of N,N'-bis(n-octyl)-(1,7&1,6)-dicyanoperylene-3,4:9,10-bisdicarboximide (PDI8-CN2) organic semiconductor films grown on silicon dioxide is performed by polarization-resolved second…
The NA62 RICH detector is used for the separation of pions and muons in the momentum range 15 -- 35 GeV/c and is expected to provide a muon suppression factor better than $10^{-2}$. A prototype of the final detector equipped with about 400…
