(author), Eggleton, B.J. (author), O'Brien, J.L. (author)We demonstrate a 1550 nm correlated photon-pair source in an integrated glass platform—a chalcogenide As2S3 waveguide. A measured pair coincidence rate of 80?s?1 was achieved using 57 mW of continuous-wave pump. The coincidence to accidental ratio was shown to be limited by spontaneous Raman scattering effects that are expected to be mitigated...journal article 2011

(author), Schäfers, F. (author), Bijkerk, F. (author)To enhance the thermal stability, B4C diffusion barrier layers are often added to Mo/Si multilayer structures for extreme ultraviolet optics. Knowledge about the chemical interaction between B4C and Mo or Si, however is largely lacking. Therefore, the chemical processes during annealing up to 600?°C of a Mo/B4C/Si layered structure have been...journal article 2010

Schins, J.M. (author)The retrieval of the primary (subpicosecond) photoproducts in small-band two-dimensional time-domain terahertz spectroscopy has succeeded only in a few model systems, due to the complicated correlation between the two time parameters. We show that the nature of the primary photoproducts is revealed upon differentiating the measured time-domain...journal article 2010

Kroon-van Loon, P.S. (author)About 30% of the increased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are related to land use changes and agricultural activities. In order to select effective measures, knowledge is required about GHG emissions from these ecosystems and how these emissions are influenced by management and...doctoral thesis 2010

(author), Mulder, F.M. (author), Wagemaker, M. (author)Amorphous titanium oxide nanoparticles were prepared from titanium isopropoxide. In situ measurements reveal an extraordinary high capacity of 810 mAh/g on the first discharge. Upon cycling at a charge/discharge rate of 33.5 mA/g, this capacity gradually decreases to 200 mAh/g after 50 cycles. The origin of this fading was investigated using X...journal article 2010

Leegwater, H. (author), Schut, H. (author), Egger, W. (author), Baldi, A. (author), Dam, B. (author), Eijt, S.W.H. (author)We obtained evidence for the partial chemical segregation of as-deposited and hydrogenated Mg1?yTiy films (0 ? y ? 0.30) into nanoscale Ti and Mg domains using positron Doppler-broadening. We exclusively monitor the hydrogenation of Mg domains, owing to the large difference in positron affinity for Mg and Ti. The electron momentum distribution...journal article 2010
