Electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) is arguably the most sensitive method available to study electrically active point defects in semiconductor devices. Most EDMR studies have utilized spin dependent recombination current and thus require p-n

The nonlinear energy response of cryogenic x-ray microcalorimeters is usually corrected though an empirical calibration. Certain x-ray emission lines of known shape and calibrated energy are used to anchor a smooth function that gener- alizes the
Extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) has evolved into an unprecedented technique for local structural determination in material, chemical, and physical problems in materials science. Just as for other experimental techniques, such as x-ray and

Ionizing radiation-induced paramagnetic defects in calcified tissues like tooth enamel are indicators of irradiation dose. Hydroxyapatite (HA), the principal constituent in these materials, incorporates a variety of anions (CO32, F, Cl, SiO44 ) and
An electro-optic dual-comb system based on chirped-pulse waveforms is used to simultaneously acquire temporally magnified rapid passage signals and normal spectral line shapes from the back-transformation to the time domain. Multi-heterodyne terahertz (THz

Resonant soft X-ray scattering (RSoXS) probes structure with chemical sensitivity that is useful for determining the morphology of multiblock copolymers. However, the hyperspectral data produced by this technique are challenging to interpret. Here, we use
Removing distortions in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) spectra due to interference with the nonresonant background (NRB) is vital for quantitative analysis. Popular computational approaches, the Kramers-Kronig relation and the maximum entropy

Abstract The Inner Shell Spectroscopy (ISS) beamline on the 8-ID station at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), Upton, NY, USA, is a high throughput X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy beamline designed for the in situ, operando, and time
Photodetectors converting light signals into detectable photocurrents are ubiquitously in use today. To improve the compactness and performance of next-generation devices and systems, low dimensional materials provide rich physics to engineering the light
The past decade saw the emergence of new temperature sensors that have the potential to disrupt a century-old measurement infrastructure based on resistance thermometry. In this review we present an overview of emerging technologies that are either in the
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a broadly applicable, composition sensitive analytical technique. By leveraging the high spatial resolution of atomic force microscopy (AFM), the photothermal effect, and wavelength-tunable lasers, AFM IR enables IR
In recent years, interesting materials have emerged which are only available as µm-scale flakes, and whose novel physics might be better understood through broadband microwave spectroscopy; examples include twisted bilayer graphene [1], 2D materials in
