Strong nonlinear thermoelectricity generation and close-to-Carnot efficient heat engines in Superconductor-Insulator-2D electron gas junctions
Leonardo Lucchesi, Federico Paolucci
We propose and theoretically analyse a novel Superconductor-Insulator-2D electron gas tunnel junction (SI2DEG) that strongly and efficiently generates thermoelectricity via a nonli…
Graphene-Insulator-Superconductor junctions as thermoelectric bolometers
Leonardo Lucchesi, Federico Paolucci
We design a superconducting thermoelectric bolometer made of a Graphene-Insulator-Superconductor tunnel junction. Our detector has the advantage of being passive, as it directly tr…
Out-of-equilibrium nonlinear model of thermoelectricity in superconducting tunnel junctions
Leonardo Lucchesi, Federico Paolucci
Thermoelectricity in superconducting tunnel junctions has always been studied under the hypothesis of equilibrium between the cold side and the thermal bath, usually in the linear…
The Telescope Calibration of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Brian Ramsey, Jeffery Kolodziejczak, Wayne Baumgartner +27
Fifty years after the very first sounding rocket measurement of cosmic X-ray polarization, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) mission has effectively opened a new window…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
Giant chirality-induced spin polarization in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides
Guido Menichetti, Lorenzo Cavicchi, Leonardo Lucchesi +6
Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) is an effect that has recently attracted a great deal of attention in chiral chemistry and that remains to be understood. In the CISS effe…
CVD Graphene Contacts for Lateral Heterostructure MoS Field Effect Transistors
Daniel S. Schneider, Leonardo Lucchesi, Eros Reato +12
Intensive research is carried out on two-dimensional materials, in particular molybdenum disulfide, towards high-performance transistors for integrated circuits. Fabricating transi…
Calibration of the IXPE focal plane X-ray polarimeters to polarized radiation
Alessandro Di Marco, Sergio Fabiani, Fabio La Monaca +80
IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer) is a NASA Small Explorer mission -- in partnership with the Italian Space Agency (ASI) -- dedicated to X-ray polarimetry in the 2--8 keV e…
The Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE): Pre-Launch
Martin C. Weisskopf, Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini +155
Scheduled to launch in late 2021, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer Mission in collaboration with the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The mission w…
The Instrument of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini, Ronaldo Bellazzini +78
While X-ray Spectroscopy, Timing and Imaging have improved verymuch since 1962, when the first astronomical non-solar source was discovered, especially with the launch of Newton/X-…
Design, Construction, and Test of the Gas Pixel Detectors for the IXPE Mission
L. Baldini, M. Barbanera, R. Bellazzini +91
Due to be launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer mission designed to perform polarization measurements in the 2-8 keV band, c…
A Ballistic Two-Dimensional Lateral Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor
Leonardo Lucchesi, Gaetano Calogero, Gianluca Fiori +1
We propose and investigate the intrinsically thinnest transistor concept: a monolayer ballistic heterojunction bipolar transistor based on a lateral heterostructure of transition m…
Many-Body Entanglement in Short-Range Interacting Fermi Gases for Metrology
Leonardo Lucchesi, Maria Luisa Chiofalo
We explore many-body entanglement in spinful Fermi gases with short-range interactions, for metrology purposes. We characterize the emerging quantum phases via Density-Matrix Renor…
