Study of monolayer polymerization using nonlinear optics

Edge nonlinear optics on a MoS₂ atomic monolayer.

The translational symmetry breaking of a crystal at its surface may form two-dimensional (2D) electronic states. We observed one-dimensional nonlinear optical edge states of a single atomic membrane of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a transition metal dichalcogenide. The electronic structure changes at the edges of the 2D crystal result in strong resonant nonlinear optical susceptibilities, allow...

Synthesis of TiO2-ZnO-ZrO2 Nanocomposites for Nonlinear Optics Applications

A sol-gel technique under ultrasonic irradiation was applied to synthesize ZrO2/TiO2/ZnOnanocomposites. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the successful synthesis of nanocomposites. The strain and crystalline size values of ZrO2/TiO2/ZnO nanocomposites are estimated to be 9.98×10-4 and 17.66 nm, respectively. The linear absorption coefficient of ZrO2/TiO2/ZnO nanocomposites was measure...

Transverse Ion Beam Shaping Using Nonlinear Optics

Taking an advantage of the unique capabilities of heavy ion beams and continuously increasing beam intensity, many successful experiments on high energy density (HED) matter have been carried out at GSI over the past few years. New fascinating experimental proposals such as investigation of equation-of-state of matter under extreme conditions [1] and generation of metallic hydrogen utilizing io...
