Bhaskar, P. (author), Achtstein, Alexander W. (author), Vermeulen, M.J.W. (author), Siebbeles, L.D.A. (author)Tin disulfide (SnS2) is a two-dimensional semiconducting van der Waals material with an indirect band gap. We measured the mobility and recombination dynamics of charge carriers as a function of temperature and charge density. Excess electrons and holes were generated by pulsed irradiation with 3 MeV electrons. The charge carriers were probed by...journal article 2019

Vermeulen, Bart (author), Boersema, Matthijs (author), Hoitink, Ton (author), Sieben, Arjan (author), Sloff, C.J. (author), Van Der Wal, Maarten (author)Longitudinal training dams (LTDs) are a promising alternative for river groynes. Here we summarize findings of a recent study focused on the along river transition from a series of river groynes to an LTD, where the flow divides between the fairway and the side channel between the LTD and the river bank. A scale model is setup using...journal article 2018

Vermeulen, A.C.J. (author), Sirenko, Mikhail (author), Kiem, Jason (author), Theys, Andreas (author), Brazier, F.M. (author), Papic González, Alvaro (author)The hostile and unpredictable environment of deep space requires a new conceptual approach for interstellar flight, one that differs radically from any current design in aerospace. A design solution is proposed in which the starship is attached to a C-type asteroid and whose architecture evolves over time. The starship gradually mines...conference paper 2018

Flexible programmability of a quantum processor is achieved by multilevel instructions decoding, abstracting analog control into digital control, and translating instruction execution with non-deterministic timing into event trigger with precise timing. QuMA is validated by several...journal article 2018

(author)We present a tuneup protocol for qubit gates with tenfold speedup over traditional methods reliant on qubit initialization by energy relaxation. This speedup is achieved by constructing a cost function for Nelder-Mead optimization from real-time correlation of nondemolition measurements interleaving gate operations without pause.

Vermeulen, B. (author), Pyka, A. (author), la Poutré, J.A. (author), de Kok, A.G. (author)In recent literature, there is disagreement over the temporal pattern of vertical governance of firms over the product life-cycle. We use a novel neo-Schumpeterian agent-based simulation model to investigate emerging patterns of vertical governance for different levels of imitability and substitutability of capabilities. We find that, in the...journal article 2016

(author), Schouten, R.N. (author), DiCarlo, L. (author)We present two pulse schemes to actively deplete measurement photons from a readout resonator in the nonlinear dispersive regime of circuit QED. One method uses digital feedback conditioned on the measurement outcome, while the other is unconditional. In the absence of analytic forms and symmetries to exploit in this nonlinear regime, the...journal article 2016

(author)Jack-ups have been constructed for numerous ocean environments, but to date there has been no operating experience under Arctic sea ice conditions. The current state of jack-up technology does not allow working outside the ice-free season and thus ice management will be needed to extend the drilling season.
