Phonon transport across twin boundaries and twin superlattices
Kim López-Güell, Nicolas Forrer, Xavier Cartoixà +2
Crystal phase engineering gives access to new types of superlattices where, rather than different materials, different crystal phases of the same material are juxtaposed. Here, by…
Low charge-noise nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond created using laser writing with a solid-immersion lens
Viktoria Yurgens, Josh A. Zuber, Sigurd Flågan +6
We report on pulsed-laser induced generation of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond facilitated by a solid-immersion lens (SIL). The SIL enables laser writing at energies as l…
Nanowires for heat conversion
Milo Yaro Swinkels, Ilaria Zardo
This review focuses on the investigation and enhancement of the thermoelectric properties of semiconducting nanowires (NWs). NWs are nanostructures with typical diameters between f…
Spatially mapping the thermal conductivity of graphene by an opto-thermal method
Oliver Braun, Roman Furrer, Pascal Butti +5
Mapping the thermal transport properties of materials at the nanoscale is of critical importance for optimizing heat conduction in nanoscale devices. Several methods to determine t…
Experimental demonstration of the suppression of optical phonon splitting in 2D materials by Raman spectroscopy
Marta De Luca, Xavier Cartoixà, David I. Indolese +7
Raman spectroscopy is one of the most extended experimental techniques to investigate thin-layered 2D materials. For a complete understanding and modeling of the Raman spectrum of…
New insights in the lattice dynamics of monolayers, bilayers, and trilayers of WSe2 and unambiguous determination of few-layer-flakes' thickness
Marta De Luca, Xavier Cartoixà, Javier Martín-Sánchez +4
Among the most common few-layers transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), WSe2 is the most challenging material from the lattice dynamics point of view. Indeed, for a long time the…
