Images and related analysis relevant to this research publication.
Data Files for 'Microwave spectroscopy of radio frequency dressed $^{87}Rb$'
(The University of Nottingham, 2019-07-09)
Data files as excel sheets for the journal article 'Microwave spectroscopy of radio frequency dressed $^{87}Rb$' (arXiv:1904.12073). The data is collected to explore the microwave spectroscopy of the rf dressed hyperfine ...
An on-surface reaction confined within a porous molecular template
(The University of Nottingham, 2019-04-25)
On-surface reactions based on metal-catalysed Ullmann coupling have been successfully employed to synthesise a wide variety of covalently coupled structures. Substrate chemistry and topology are both known to effect the ...
A Voigt effect based 3D vector magnetometer
(The University of Nottingham, 2019-02-14)
We describe a method to dispersively detect all three vector components of an external magnetic field using alkali atoms based on the Voigt effect. Our method relies on measuring the linear birefringence of the radio ...
Direct band-gap crossover in epitaxial monolayer boron nitride
(The University of Nottingham, 2019-06-28)
Hexagonal boron nitride is a large band-gap insulating material which complements the electronic and optical properties of graphene and the transition metal dichalcogenides. However, the intrinsic optical properties of ...
The direct-to-indirect band gap crossover in two-dimensional van der Waals indium selenide crystals
(The University of Nottingham, 2017-01-03)
The electronic band structure of van der Waals (vdW) layered crystals has properties that depend on the composition, thickness and stacking of the component layers. Here we use density functional theory and high field ...
Giant moiré patterns and lattice-matched epitaxial graphene grown
(The University of Nottingham, 2018-01-01)
Lattice-matched graphene on hexagonal boron nitride is expected to lead to the formation
of a band-gap but requires the formation of highly strained material and has not hitherto
been realised. We demonstrate that aligned, ...
Eigenstate thermalization hypothesis in quantum dimer models
(University of Nottingham, 2017-09-21)
We use exact diagonalization to study the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) in the quantum dimer model on the square and triangular lattices. Due to the nonergodicity of the local plaquette-flip dynamics, the ...
Epitaxial growth of γ-InSe and α, β, and γ-In2Se3 on ε-GaSe
(The University of Nottingham, 2018-05)
We demonstrate that γ-InSe and the α, β and γ phases of In2Se3 can be grown epitaxially on ε-GaSe substrates using a physical vapour transport method. By exploiting the temperature gradient within the tube furnace, we can ...
Ullmann coupling reactions on Ag(111) and Ag(110): substrate influence on the formation of covalently coupled products and intermediate metal-organic structures
(The University of Nottingham, 2017-11-09)
On-surface reactions based on Ullmann coupling are known to proceed on coinage-metal substrates (e.g. Au, Ag,
Cu), with the chemistry of the surface strongly influencing the reaction progression. In addition, the topography ...
