New Synthetic Routes to Polyoxometalate Containing Ionic Liquids
An Investigation of their Properties
Article
In this paper we present an open-source Time-of-Flight and radar dataset of a neonatal thorax simulator for the development of respiratory rate detection algorithms. As it is very difficult to gain recordings ...
Article
The ability of new medical devices and technology to demonstrate safety and effectiveness, and consequently acquire regulatory approval, has been dependent on benchtop, in vitro, and in vivo evidence and experi...
Chapter
We give an introduction to quantum tests of gravity including simple exercises. The first part comprises a brief review of the foundations and the status of laboratory-based tests of gravity. In the second par...
Article
We summarise the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportunities offered by their deplo...
Article
The precision of matter-wave sensors benefits from interrogating large-particle-number atomic ensembles at high cycle rates. Quantum-degenerate gases with their low effective temperatures allow for constrainin...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In this work, we propose a novel artificial potential field off-line path planning algorithm for robot manipulators. The potential field is defined using navigation functions, and the parameters of the navigat...
Article
Inertial sensors based on cold atoms have great potential for navigation, geodesy, or fundamental physics. Similar to the Sagnac effect, their sensitivity increases with the space-time area enclosed by the int...
Article
Future generations of global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) can benefit from optical technologies. Especially optical clocks could back-up or replace the currently used microwave clocks, having the poten...
Article
Surgical treatment of bi-condylar tibial plateau fractures is still challenging due to the complexity of the fracture and the difficult surgical approach. Coronal fracture lines are associated with a high risk...
Article
We report on an improved test of the Universality of Free Fall using a rubidium-potassium dual-species matter wave interferometer. We describe our apparatus and detail challenges and solutions relevant when o...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Multibody modeling allows reproducible and comparative analyses of ...
Article
We present the technical realization of a compact system for performing experiments with cold 87Rb and 39K atoms in microgravity in the future. The whole system fits into a capsule to be used in the drop tower Br...
Article
Optical 3D simulations in many-query and real-time contexts require new solution strategies. We study an adaptive, error controlled reduced basis method for solving parameterized time-harmonic optical scatteri...
Article
Do the laws of quantum physics still hold for macroscopic objects - this is at the heart of Schrödinger’s cat paradox - or do gravitation or yet unknown effects set a limit for massive particles? What is the f...
Article
X-ray scattering is typically used as a weak linear atomic-scale probe of matter. At high intensities, such as produced at free-electron lasers, nonlinearities can become important, and the probe may no longer...
Article
Atom interferometers have a multitude of proposed applications in space including precise measurements of the Earth’s gravitational field, in navigation & ranging, and in fundamental physics such as tests of t...

An Investigation of their Properties
Chapter
Ionic liquids (ILs) are a remarkable compound class, facing back on a short yet prospering history as unique solvents and electrolyte materials. In recent years there has been an actual explosion of interest i...
Chapter
All reagents and chemicals were supplied by SIGMA ALDRICH CHEMICAL COMPANY LTD., FISHER CHEMICALS, ABCR CHEMICALS and ACROS ORGANICS. The materials were used without further purification. Unless described othe...
Chapter
Motivated by promising examples of improvements brought forward by the use of ionic liquids in current state of the art research (see chapter 1.4.2) concerning extended solvation properties, improved recyclabi...
