Optical magnetometers use magnetically-sensitive atomic ensembles and optical read-out to detect the amplitude of magnetic fields. They have become the most sensitive instruments for measuring low-frequency ...
Badarla, Venkata Ramaiah (Date of defense: 2014-10-31)
In this thesis, we have demonstrated various ultrafast optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) based on different nonlinear media. The thesis consists of OPO systems, novel techniques, designs, and concepts ...

The potential impact of noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) in diverse fields, particularly medicine, is tremendous. However, before NPs can be routinely used in clinical practices, it is fundamental to ...
Baccari, Flavio (Date of defense: 2019-05-17)
Quantum physics is arguably both the most successful and the most counterintuitive physical theory of all times. Its extremely accurate predictions on the behaviour of microscopic particles have led ...
Gregori Pla, Clara (Date of defense: 2019-03-06)
I have used and developed a practical new platform in the clinics for the noninvasive estimation of cerebral hemodynamics. The latform combines two diffuse optical techniques: near-infrared spectroscopy ...
