Physical properties of alkanes and their mixtures
Alkanes and their mixtures are some of the physically simplest molecules and are widely used in industry, yet the connection between their structure and physical properties is still poorly understood. To make progress, we ... -
Neutrino interaction vertex reconstruction and particle identification in the MicroBooNE detector
This thesis presents the results of a study measuring and improving the quality of neutrino interaction vertex reconstruction and particle identification (PID) in the MicroBooNE detector. The detector comprises a liquid ... -
A tale of two interfaces: photons and spins linked by a solid-state artificial atom
An electron spin confined to a self-assembled quantum dot presents itself as a natural candidate for the node of a quantum network, offering a highly coherent interface between a solid-state spin and an optical photon. ... -
Holographic Control of Light Propagation in Optical Waveguides
(2021-08-01)Optical waveguides form the backbone of the internet and have also been a driving technology in medical imaging and optical sensing. Modern holography can now be used to control every aspect of light propagation along an ...
