Abstract:
This doctoral thesis studies the concept of a distributed etched diffraction grating (DEDG) and presents a methodology to engineer the spectral response of the device. The design which incorporates a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) at the facets of a conventional etched diffraction grating demultiplexer promises for a superior performance in multiple aspects. Where in a conventional etched diffraction grating, smooth vertical deep etched walls are required in order to realize a low insertion loss device; in the DEDG such requirement is significantly mitigated. Deep etched walls are replaced

High Harmonic Generation is a highly nonlinear process that can be used to generate a high flux, low divergence, coherent beam in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) wavelength range. It is proposed that this radiation source could be implemented for microscopy using coherent diffractive imaging, with potential measurements including the shape characterisation of single proteins and other biological samples. This thesis documents the development of the diffraction beam line at the University of Southampton, and presents experimental results that show progress towards this goal. A spherical multilaye

The device is designed and built based on the platform of silicon on insulator (SOI). A center-fled reflective grating configuration is used for the design of the layout.

The scope of these studies encompasses both field site testing and scale modeling.

This site proved a challenge in that the medium was fairly inhomogeneous and resulted in server wave scattering. Inter-borehole transmission allowed only 15 MHz to penetrate for an adequate si

Miniature diffractive lenses are an integral part of many modern optical systems; from optical disc pick-up heads to optical interconnects.

Abstract:
The various electronic phenomena of electrons in the quasi-one-dimensional semiconducotor heterostructures have been largely investigated in the past research, due to its importance both on the theoretical understanding and the design of nanodevices. In particular, most research is currently based on the GaAs-AIGaAs material system with a 2-DEG interface. From the study of Hua Wu, following the Bohm's interpretation of quantum mechanics, energetic electrons approximately approach the classical behavior. The goal of this theoretical study is to investigate how the flow of energetic electrons ma

Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Trilayered transition metal dichalcogenides such as our sample (1T-TiSe2) have been studied for many years as systems with strong electron-electron and electron-phonon correlations. The main attraction to this family of compound is its potential to exhibit ground state phenomena known as charge density waves whose detailed physical origin has been controversially determined. In this study, we have used an ultrafast femtosecond laser based on a pump-probe technique, namely ultrafast electron diffraction, to investigate thes

Abstract:
The dynamics of atomic scale structures during structural change can be studied by Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED). The time resolution needed to reveal the fastest dynamics is 100 fs. Sub-angstrom structural resolution becomes possible with 1-1000 pC of charge necessary for diffraction pattern analysis during subtle structural changes. This combination of requirements cannot currently be realized due to the space-charge temporal broadening inherent to bunches of electrons of high fluence and short temporal duration. Simulations show that the incorporation of a specially designed Radio-Fr
