For a long time, quantum states of matter have been successfully characterized by the Ginzburg-Landau formalism that was able to classify all different types of phase transitions. This view changed ...
Guijarro Gamez, Grecia (Date of defense: 2020-12-21)
In this Thesis, we report a detailed study of the ground-state properties of a set of quantum few- and many-body systems by using Quantum Monte Carlo methods. First, we introduced the Variational Monte ...
Troullinou, Charikleia (Date of defense: 2022-09-29)
(English) This thesis describes experiments that employ squeezed light to improve the performance of a sensitive optically-pumped magnetometer (OPM). The squeezed light source employs parametric ...
Xie, Chenyang (Date of defense: 2021-01-08)
Cu-based alloys are widely applied in corrosive environments. The improvement of the alloys' corrosion resistance will significantly reduce energy consumption and overexploitation of resources. To ...
Sánchez Peacham, Daniel Alexander (Date of defense: 2020-01-27)
The continuous development of laser sources delivering ultra-short light pulses underpins much of the current progress in experimental science, particularly in the domain of physics concerned with ...
Dawid Lekowska, Anna Maria (Date of defense: 2022-09-20)
(English) Quantum many-body physics poses a substantial computational challenge resulting from the exponential growth of the wave function complexity and many non-trivial correlations encoded in it. ...
Bianchet, Lorena Cecilia (Date of defense: 2022-02-25)
In this thesis, a single-atom trap in a "Maltese cross'' geometry (MCG) was designed, built up and characterized. A MCG atom trap uses four in-vacuum lenses to achieve four-directional high-numerical-aperture ...
Calmet, Hadrien (Date of defense: 2020-11-10)
As we inhale, the air drawn through our nose undergoes successive accelerations and decelerations as it is turned, split, and recombined before splitting again at the end of the trachea as it enters the ...
