Radiotracer photoluminescence for element-specific identification of color centers

Brecht Biesmans, Afonso Lamelas, Kirill Danilov +8

We report on the implementation of a radiotracer photoluminescence spectroscopy setup at the ISOLDE radioactive ion beam facility at CERN, enabling element-specific identification…

Impact of magnetization and hyperfine field distribution on high magnetoelectric coupling strength in BaTiO-BiFeO multilayers

Johanna K. Jochum, Michael Lorenz, Haraldur P. Gunnlaugsson +7

Understanding the mechanisms of magnetoelectric (ME) coupling within multiferroic structures is paramount from a fundamental as well as an applied point of view. We report here tha…

Observation of the radiative decay of the nuclear clock isomer

Sandro Kraemer, Janni Moens, Michail Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis +32

The nucleus of the radioisotope thorium-229 (Th) features an isomer with an exceptionally low excitation energy that enables direct laser manipulation of nuclear states.…

Magnesium-vacancy optical centers in diamond

Emilio Corte, Greta Andrini, Elena Nieto Hernández +18

We provide the first systematic characterization of the structural and photoluminescence properties of optically active defect centers fabricated upon implantation of 30-100 keV Mg…

Magnetic characterization of oblique angle deposited Co/CoO on gold nanoparticles

Johanna K. Jochum, Thomas Saerbeck, Vera Lazenka +6

The influence of a patterned substrate on obliquely deposited, exchange biased Co/CoO films was studied. It was found that substrates decorated with nanoparticle patterns provide t…

An alternative approach to populate and study the Th nuclear clock isomer

M. Verlinde, S. Kraemer, J. Moens +24

A new approach to observe the radiative decay of the Th nuclear isomer, and to determine its energy and radiative lifetime, is presented. Situated at a uniquely low excitat…

Probing interacting two-level systems with rare-earth ions

Dapeng Ding, David van Driel, Lino M. C. Pereira +8

Two-level systems (TLS) in amorphous materials limit coherence times of a number of solid-state quantum devices. Interactions between TLS become prominent below 100 mK, but the cou…

Deposition and patterning of magnetic atom trap lattices in FePt films with periods down to 200nm

A. L. La Rooij, S. Couet, M. C. van der Krogt +3

We report on the epitaxial growth and the characterization of thin FePt films and the subsequent patterning of magnetic lattice structures. These structures can be used to trap ult…
