The radiation-pressure driven interaction of a coherent light field with a mechanical oscillator induces correlations between the amplitude and phase quadratures of the light. These correlations result in squeezed light -- light with…
The burst of radio emission by the extensive air shower provides a promising alternative for detecting ultra-high energy cosmic rays.We have developed an independent numerical program to simulate these radio signals. Our code is based on a…
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 measure the resonance line shape of atomic vapor layers with nanoscale thickness confined between two sapphire windows. The measurement is performed by scanning a probe laser through resonance and collecting the scattered light. The line…
We introduce a new scanning probe technique derived from scanning gate microscopy (SGM) in order to investigate thermoelectric transport in two-dimensional semiconductor devices. The thermoelectric scanning gate Microscopy (TSGM) consists…
Raman spectra from silicon nanostructures, recorded using excitation laser power density of 1.0 kW/cm^2, is employed here to reveal the dominance of thermal effects at temperatures higher than the room temperature. Room temperature Raman…
There are a lot of oscillatory motions of various kinds in the atmosphere, for example, internal gravity waves (IGW), which have a period less than the time of flight of the radiosonde. Oscillatory motions lead to adiabatic cooling during…
Simulations of the radio emission from extensive air showers have been key in establishing radio detection as a mature and competitive technique. In particular, microscopic Monte Carlo simulations have proven to very accurately describe the…
The acoustic signature of thermal spray processes is known to vary with changes in operating conditions, which also influence particle in-flight velocity and distribution. Building on this idea, the present work first develops an analytical…
The "textbook" phonon mean free path (MFP) of heat carrying phonons in silicon at room temperature is ~40 nm. However, a large contribution to the thermal conductivity comes from low-frequency phonons with much longer MFPs. We present a…
Determination of air density and the quantitative estimates of water vapour adsorbed or desorbed by the surface of mass standard, remain the principals sources of uncertainties when weighing mass standard made from stainless steel or super…
We present a theoretical study of near-field heat transfer between two anisotropic materials separated by a small vacuum gap and maintained in a stationary non-equilibrium thermal situation. By combining standard stochastic electrodynamics…
This paper presents a simple model for predicting electrical conductivity of air with varying electrode separation and different moisture content present in air. Our system consists of a metallic thin film (Cu) coated sample and a needle…
Near-field radiative heat transfer allows heat to propagate across a small vacuum gap in quantities that are several orders of magnitude greater then the heat transfer by far-field, blackbody radiation. Although heat transfer via near-field…
Shot noise measurements on atomic and molecular junctions provide rich information about the quantum transport properties of the junctions and on the inelastic scattering events taking place in the process. Dissipation at the nanoscale, a…
We demonstrate noninvasive measurement of gas temperature based on the optical gas imaging. Gas flows containing carbon dioxide (CO2) appear as either bright or dark images, depending on the relative temperatures of the background and the…
The heating of particles by plasma radiation plays a critical role in space science involving dusty plasma as well as in industrial processes such as plasma vapor deposition, microchip production, etching and plasma fusion. Numerical…
Significance: Voltage imaging microscopy has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate neural activity both in vivo and in vitro. Various imaging approaches have been developed, including point-scanning, line-scanning and wide-field…
We present a numerical study of thermoviscous effects on the acoustic streaming flow generated by an ultrasound standing-wave resonance in a long straight microfluidic channel containing a Newtonian fluid. These effects enter primarily…
We have carried out far-infrared (far-IR) transmission measurements on the ligand stabilized Au55 nanoparticles dispersed in Teflon at volume fractions ranging from 0.2% to 1%. Instead of a series of peaks which might arise from the…
