  1. 1. Quantum Coherence and Quantum-Vacuum Effects in Some Artificial Electromagnetic Media

    Author : Jianqi Shen; Sailing He; Chris Phillips; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Quantum coherence; quantum vacuum; electromagnetically induced transparency; negative refractive index; artificial electromagnetic media; electric- and magnetic-dipole transitions; multilevel atomic vapors; transient evolution; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : The author of this thesis concentrates his attention on quantum optical properties of some artificial electromagnetic media, such as quantum coherent atomic vapors (various multilevel electromagnetically induced transparency vapors) and negative refractive index materials, and suggests some possible ways to manipulate wave propagations inside the artificial electromagnetic materials based on quantum coherence and quantum vacuum effects. In Chapters 1 and 2, the author reviews the previous papers on quantum coherence as well as the relevant work such as electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), atomic population trapping and their various applications.

  3. 3. Negative ion experiments at DESIREE : Photodetatchment studies of transitions and lifetimes of excited states of Ir-

    Author : Moa Kristiansson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In this thesis I present measurements using laser photodetachment to investigate negative ions of iridium produced in a cesium sputter ion source and stored in the cryogenic storage ring, DESIREE. The ions are photodetached by either a tunable OPO laser system or a tunable narrow bandwidth Titanium Sapphire laser. READ MORE

  4. 4. Spectroscopic Investigations of Highly Charged Tungsten Ions - Atomic Spectroscopy and Fusion Plasma Diagnostics

    Author : Joel Clementson; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; extreme ultraviolet spectra; spheromak; electron beam ion trap; magnetic fusion; tungsten; highly charged ions; atomic structure; x-ray spectroscopy; plasma diagnostics; Fysicumarkivet A:2010:Clementson;

    Abstract : The spectra of highly charged tungsten ions have been investigated using x-ray and extreme ultraviolet spectroscopy. These heavy ions are of interest in relativistic atomic structure theory, where high-precision wavelength measurements benchmark theoretical approaches, and in magnetic fusion research, where the ions may serve to diagnose high-temperature plasmas.

  5. 5. Studies of ionised atoms with collision-based spectroscopy and laser spectroscopy

    Author : Mingqi Wang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Atomic structure and collision properties of ionised atoms have been studied usingcollision-based spectroscopy and fast ion beam-laser spectroscopy.Collision induced photon emission spectra of Xe VI, Xe VII and Xe VIII andthe potassium like metal ions Mn VII, Fe VIII and Co IX have been recorded with a beam of multiply charged ions from an ECR (electron cyclotron resonance) ion source passing through an atomic target.
