1. 1. First Principle Calculations & Inelastic Neutron Scattering on the Single-Crystalline Superconductor LaPt2Si2

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Mazza Federico; [2020]
   Keywords : Superconductivity; LaPt2Si2; Inelastic Neutron Scattering; Charge Density Wave; Band Structure Calculations; DFT; SNIC; J-PARC; Supraledning; LaPt2Si2; neutronspridning; neutronspektroskopi; Bandberäkningar; DFT; J-PARC;

   Abstract : This work presents a comprehensive study on single crystalline LaPt2Si2, in which superconductivity and a charge density wave (CDW) coexist. The usage of density functional theory (DFT) modeling and Inelastic Neutron Scattering has been the primary form of investigation, in order to determine all the characteristic features of the sample taken under consideration.

3. 2. Characterization of InAs-Al semiconductor-superconductor hybrid devices

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Markus Aspegren; [2020]
   Keywords : quantum dot; superconductivity; quantum transport; josephson junction; spectroscopy; yu-shiba-rusinov; hybrid devices; sub-gap states; quantum computer; majorana bound state; bogoliubov quasiparticle; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this thesis we study charge and spin transport through InAs-Al nanowire superconductor-semiconductor hybrid devices. We focus on assessing the quality of the InAs-Al contact interface when using a weak HCl acid to wet-etch the nanowire surface prior to metal evaporation. READ MORE

4. 3. Real-time Entanglement of Auger and XPS-electrons: a preliminary investigation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Philip Johansson; [2019]
   Keywords : Entanglement; Auger; Auger decay; photoemission; XPS; ED; exact diagonalization; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this work, we employ a semi-classical approach to light matter interaction to describe and char- acterize spin configurations resulting from quantum correlations between electrons created by a photoemission event and by the following Auger decay. The system studied consists of three atomic levels and two continua. READ MORE

5. 4. Reproducibility of bunches of electrons accelerated in laser driven wakefields

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Philip Siederer; [2016]
   Keywords : Laser; wakefield; acceleration; electron acceleration; plasma; LWFA; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) utilises a high intensity laser pulse to excite a plasma density wave with associated large directed electric fields. These large electric fields can be used to accelerate electrons, making LWFA a good candidate for a compact electron beam source. READ MORE

6. 5. Parametric study of density down-ramp injection in laser wakefield acceleration

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Henrik Ekerfelt; [2015]
   Keywords : Laser wakefield acceleration; LWFA; gradient injection; density down-ramp injection; particle-in-cell simulation; PIC; top-view; top view; Thomson scattered light; trace; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) a high intensity laser pulse is used to excite a plasma density wave with an associated electric field. This electric field can be used to accelerate electrons. However, to be accelerated the electrons first of all need to enter the plasma wave. This process is called injection. READ MORE
