2. Design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers
Sammanfattning : Efficient, compact, and reliable terahertz frequency converters preferably operating at ambient temperature are crucial for stabilising far-infrared optical sources. This thesis focuses on the design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers for frequency stabilisation of quantum-cascade lasers. LÄS MER
3. Modal Analysis, Dynamic Properties and Horizontal Stabilisation of Timber Buildings
Sammanfattning : Engineers face new challenges as taller timber buildings are constructed. According to Eurocode 1-4, both horizontal deformations from static wind and acceleration levels shall be limited. Due to the low self-weight of wood, dynamic vibrations and acceleration levels cancause problems. LÄS MER
4. Towards single Ce ion detection in a bulk crystal for the development of a single-ion qubit readout scheme
Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis was concerned with investigating the relevant spectroscopic properties of Ce ions randomly doped in an Y2SiO5 crystal at low temperatures (around 4 K), in order to develop a technique and an experimental set-up to detect the fluorescence photons emitted by a single Ce ion. The aim of the work was to determine whether a single Ce ion (referred to as the readout ion) can be used as a local probe to sense the quantum state of a neighbouring single-ion qubit via a state-selective interaction between the readout and qubit ion.

5. Vibrations in a Built Environment : Prediction and Reduction
Sammanfattning : Vibrations in a built environment can exceed the requirements for sensitive equipment in a building or can cause annoyance to residents. Hence, there is often a need for reducing such vibrations. The vibrations can originate from ambient sources such as motorway traffic, or from internal sources such as people walking inside the building. LÄS MER
