ABSTRACT: The 8.4 eV nuclear isomer state in Th-229 is resonantly excited in Th-doped CaF 2 crystals using a tabletop tunable laser system. A resonance fluorescence signal is observed in two crystals with different Th-229 dopant concentrations, while it is absent in a...
ABSTRACT: Composites from 2D nanomaterials show uniquely high electrical, thermal and mechanical properties1,2 . Pairing their robustness with polarization rotation is needed for hyperspectral optics in extreme conditions3,4 . However, the rigid nanoplatelets have...
ABSTRACT: The chemical bath deposition (CBD) process enables the deposition of ZnO nanowires (NWs) on various substrates with customizable morphology. However, the hydrogen-rich CBD environment introduces numerous hydrogen-related defects, unintentionally doping the...
ABSTRACT: The heterogeneous photocatalysis of organic dyes using ZnO nanowires (NWs) is of high interest to face the challenge of eco-eÕcient water remediation. However, the e×ects of the wurtzite structure of ZnO and hence of the shape of nanostructures on the...
ABSTRACT: The behavior of catalytic particles depends on their chemical structure and morphology. To reveal this information, the characterization with atom probe tomography has huge potential. Despite progresses and papers proposing various approaches towards the...
