(author), Schuster, Jonas (author), Ernst, Mathias (author), Hofman-Caris, Roberta (author), Kaesler, Jan (author), Wang, Chunmiao (author), Yang, Min (author), Yu, Jianwei (author), Zietzschmann, F.E. (author)Activated carbon is employed for the adsorption of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water, typically present in concentrations ranging from ng L<sup>−1</sup> to μg L<sup>−1</sup>. However, the efficacy of OMP removal is considerably deteriorated due to competitive adsorption from background dissolved organic matter (DOM), present at...journal article 2024

(author), Schuster, Jonas (author), Wang, Zheng (author), Yu, Jianwei (author), Yang, Min (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author)It was widely acknowledged that dissolved organic matter (DOM) in natural water has ubiquitous competitiveness against organic micropollutants (OMPs) during adsorption onto activated carbon. However, some (model) low molecular weight organics have been reported to adsorb onto activated carbon, but were not competitive against co-adsorbates....journal article 2022

(author), Glazman, L. (author), Devoret, M.H. (author), Schoelkopf, R.J. (author)We have engineered the band gap profile of transmon qubits by combining oxygen-doped Al for tunnel junction electrodes and clean Al as quasiparticle traps to investigate energy relaxation due to quasiparticle tunneling. The relaxation time T1 of the qubits is shown to be insensitive to this band gap engineering. Operating at relatively low-EJ/EC...journal article 2012
