High temperature-stable InGaAs QDs for the monolithic integration in external-cavity surface-emitting lasers
(2021)
Optically pumped vertical external-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VECSELs), also called semiconductor disk lasers (SDLs), benefit from the flexibility and versatility of the semiconductor material. With a simple cavity layout, fundamental transverse mode operation with a circular output beam and high beam quality is possible. They have excellent heat-sink properties and only require inexpensive multimode diode lasers for pumping. The complete VECSEL structure is only a few micrometers thick which leads to a strong ...

Validation of a generalized model for the description of polycrystalline exchange-biased magnetic thin films
(2022)
Applications based on nano- and microscaled systems have become indispensable in many aspects in everyday life, industry, research and medicine. In this regard, thin film technology plays a crucial role with the physical properties of solids changing significantly when they are reduced to thin layers with thicknesses in the nanometer range. In this regime, a solid’s microstructure as well as boundary and surface effects start to dominate. A prominent example is the exchange bias effect, which results due to the ...

Interatomic Coulombic decay in noble gas clusters of varying sizes investigated by photon-induced (dispersed) fluorescence spectrometry
(2018-06-06)
The main topic of this thesis is to study experimentally an ultrafast and efficient non radiative mechanism – the well-known interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD) – in noble gas clusters by employing fluorescence spectrometry technique in combination with synchrotron radiation. Using Neon clusters as prototype systems, a special variety of ICD, termed resonant ICD (RICD), has been investigated by a selective excitation of one component of the cluster and for different mean cluster sizes. The first part of the thesis was ...

Computeralgebraische Herleitung und Auswertung atomarer Störungsreihen und deren Anwendung auf geschlossenschalige und einfache offenschalige Systeme
(2006-11-09)
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde gezeigt, wie mit Hilfe der atomaren Vielteilchenstörungstheorie totale Energien und auch Anregungsenergien von Atomen und Ionen berechnet werden können. Dabei war es zunächst erforderlich, die Störungsreihen mit Hilfe computeralgebraischer Methoden herzuleiten. Mit Hilfe des hierbei entwickelten Maple-Programmpaketes APEX wurde dies für geschlossenschalige Systeme und Systeme mit einem aktiven Elektron bzw. Loch bis zur vierten Ordnung durchgeführt, wobei die entsprechenden Terme ...

A semi-phenomenological approach to the structure and transport properties of macromolecules in solution
(2006-08-03)
Motiviert durch die Lebenswissenschaften (Life sciences) haben sich Untersuchungen zur Dynamik von Makromolekülen in Lösungen in den vergangenen Jahren zu einem zukunftsweisenden Forschungsgebiet etabliert, dessen Anwendungen von der Biophysik über die physikalische Chemie bis hin zu den Materialwissenschaften reichen. Neben zahlreichen experimentellen Forschungsprogrammen zur räumlichen Struktur und den Transporteigenschaften grosser MolekÄule, wie sie heute praktisch an allen (Synchrotron-) Strahlungsquellen ...

Development of UNCD-based multielectrode arrays for neuronal measurements
(2017-07-26)
The work in hand will show how some of diamond’s extraordinary features can be utilized in bio-applications especially for in vitro cultures of neuronal cells. Diamond has proven itself as an excellent material for bio-applications such as simple fluorescent microarrays over bioFET (field effect transistor) to bioMEMS (microelectro-mechanical systems). The reason does not only lie in its best known properties namely extreme hardness and high refractive index, but in its unique chemistry. As one of the modifications ...

Analytical Study of Light Propagation in Highly Nonlinear Media
(2009-08-17)
The present dissertation is devoted to the construction of exact and approximate analytical solutions of the problem of light propagation in highly nonlinear media. It is demonstrated that for many experimental conditions, the problem can be studied under the geometrical optics approximation with a sufficient accuracy. Based on the renormalization group symmetry analysis, exact analytical solutions of the eikonal equations with a higher order refractive index are constructed. A new analytical approach to the construction ...

Immobilization of Neodymium Complexes on Semiconductor Surfaces and Processing of GaAs-based Photonic Crystals
(2024)
Lanthanide ion luminescence exhibits characteristic narrow emission bands ranging from VIS to NIR along with relatively long emission lifetimes which makes them attractive for applications in lighting, sensing, and display technologies. The focus of this dissertation lies on the optical characterization of newly synthesized neodymium complexes bearing phosphonate ester ligands and the fabrication of photonic crystal (PhC) cavities. Micro-photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy is used to investigate the NIR emission bands ...
