Fabrication and Investigation of Diamond Membranes for Photonic Nanostructures
(2023)
Due to its exceptional physical and chemical characteristics, diamond in a form of thin membranes is a particularly promising material for the fabrication of high-quality photonic devices. Especially for envisioned applications in quantum information technologies and communication, diamond gained, as a host material, an ever-increasing scientific interest based on remarkable properties of different color centers in its crystal lattice, e.g. nitrogen-vacancy centers, serving as single-photon emitters. As a high index ...

Ab initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations of the Structural Response of Solids to Ultrashort Laser and XUV Pulses
(2015-04-10)
The theoretical model and underlying physics described in this thesis are about the interaction of femtosecond-laser and XUV pulses with solids. The key to understand the basics of such interaction is to study the structural response of the materials after laser interaction. Depending on the laser characteristics, laser-solid interaction can result in a wide range of structural responses such as solid-solid phase transitions, vacuum phonon squeezing, ultrafast melting, generation of coherent phonons, etc. During my ...

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 ...

Vektorielle Quantenkontrolle an Molekülen mit Hilfe von maßgeschneiderten Femtosekundenlaserpulsen
(2008-08-07)
Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit zwei Aspekten der kohärenten Quantenkontrolle, die sich aus der räumlichen Struktur von Molekülen und der daraus folgenden Vektoreigenschaft der Laser-Molekül-Wechselwirkung ergeben.
Im ersten Teil der vorliegenden Arbeit wird zum ersten Mal experimentell gezeigt, dass es möglich ist, den vektoriellen Charakter der Licht-Molekül-Wechselwirkung gezielt zu einer besseren Kontrolle der Moleküldynamik auszunutzen. Dazu wurde in einem Molekularstrahlexperiment die Multi-Photonen-Ionisation ...

Preparation and applications of periodical gold nanoparticle arrays
(2009-07-14)
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Herstellung und Anwendungen von periodischen Goldnanopartikel-Arrays (PPAs), die mit Hilfe von Nanosphären-Lithografie hergestellt wurden. In Abhängigkeit der verwendeten Nanosphären-Größe wurden dabei entweder kleine dreieckige Nanopartikel (NP) (bei Verwendung von Nanosphären mit einem Durchmesser von 330 nm) oder große dreieckige NPD sowie leicht gestreckte NP (bei Verwendung von Nanosphären mit einem Durchmesser von 1390 nm) hergestellt. Die Charakterisierung der PPAs erfolgte ...

Magnetic interactions between transition metal impurities and clusters mediated by low-dimensional metallic hosts: A first principles theoretical investigation
(2015-03-31)
The magnetic properties and interactions between transition metal (TM) impurities and clusters in low-dimensional metallic hosts are studied using a first principles theoretical method. In the first part of this work, the effect of magnetic order in 3d-5d systems is addressed from the perspective of its influence on the enhancement of the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE). In the second part, the possibility of using external electric fields (EFs) to control the magnetic properties and interactions between nanoparticles ...

Theoretical study of magnetism, structure and chemical order in transition-metal alloy clusters
(2012-02-27)
Research on transition-metal nanoalloy clusters composed of a few atoms is fascinating by their unusual properties due to the interplay among the structure, chemical order and magnetism. Such nanoalloy clusters, can be used to construct nanometer devices for technological applications by manipulating their remarkable magnetic, chemical and optical properties. Determining the nanoscopic features exhibited by the magnetic alloy clusters signifies the need for a systematic global and local exploration of their ...

Electron Dynamics Driven by Intense Coherent Femtosecond Laser Pulses: Dynamic Interference in Atoms and Photoelectron Circular Dichroism in Chiral Molecules
(2018-12)
Since humans have begun to explore nature, they came up with new ways and tools, which have been permanently improved. At some point, those tools allowed to look into the microworld and to study the quantum nature of matter. One of such tools to explore the quantum world is the light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (laser). Since the first lasers were built almost 60 years ago, their capabilities improved permanently, allowing the study of hitherto-unknown physical phenomena. Two of such phenomena, ...

Application of Temporal Airy Pulses for investigating the origin of Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures and for developing new tools in cell surgery and malignant tissue identification
(2023)
In this thesis, ultrashort Temporal Airy Pulses are used to study Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS) in Part I and to enable the photoinjection of fluorescent markers into single living cells in Part II, Chapter 8. In both cases, the laser pulse excites a dielectric material (fused silica and water) and the special spatio-temporal dynamics of the interaction of a Temporal Airy Pulse with the dielectric is exploited to extend the shape of the excited region along the axis of laser propagation. For the ...
