Chemo-dynamical reconstruction of Milky Way globular cluster progenitors: Age-metallicity relations and the universality of multiple stellar populations

Carmela Lardo, David Valcin, Raul Jimenez

Globular clusters encode the hierarchical assembly history of the Milky Way and the physics of multiple stellar populations. Using homogeneous stellar parameters for 69 Galactic gl…

`Maser-in-a-Shoebox': a portable plug-and-play maser device at room-temperature and zero magnetic-field

Wern Ng, Yongqiang Wen, Max Attwood +4

Masers, the microwave analogues of lasers, have seen a renaissance owing to the discovery of gain media that mase at room-temperature and zero-applied magnetic field. However, desp…

Decoration of growth sector boundaries with single nitrogen vacancy centres in as-grown single crystal HPHT synthetic diamond

Philip L. Diggle, Ulrika F. S. D'Haenens-Johansson, Ben L. Green +5

Large (> 100 mm), relatively pure (type II) and low birefringence single crystal diamond can be produced by high pressure high temperature (HPHT) synthesis. In this study we ex…

Doubly-charged silicon vacancy center, photochromism, and Si-N complexes in co-doped diamond

B G Breeze, C J Meara, X X Wu +13

We report the first experimental observation of a doubly-charged defect in diamond, SiV2-, in silicon and nitrogen co-doped samples. We measure spectroscopic signatures we attribut…

The neutral silicon-vacancy center in diamond: spin polarization and lifetimes

B. L. Green, S. Mottishaw, B. G. Breeze +6

We demonstrate optical spin polarization of the neutrally-charged silicon-vacancy defect in diamond (), an defect which emits with a zero-phonon line at 946…
