- ItemSuperconductivity in multi-phase Mg-B-O compounds(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2012) Prikhna, T.; Gawalek, W.; Eisterer, M.; Weber, H.W.; Noudem, J.; Sokolovsky, V.; Chaud, X.; Moshchil, V.; Karpets, M.; Kovylaev, V.; Borimskiy, A.; Tkach, V.; Kozyrev, A.; Kuznietsov, R.; Dellith, J.; Shmidt, C.; Basyuk, T.; Litzkendorf, D.; Karau, F.; Dittrich, U.; Tomsic, M.Structures of MgB2-based materials manufactured under pressure (up to 2 GPa) by different methods having high superconducting performance and connectivity are multiphase and contain different Mg-B-O compounds. Some oxygen can be incorporated into MgB2 and boron into MgO structures, MgBx (X=4-20) inclusions contain practically no oxygen. Regulating manufacturing temperature, pressure, introducing additions one can influence oxygen and boron distribution in the materials and thus, affect the formation, amount and sizes of Mg-B-O and MgBx inclusions and changing type of pinning, pinning force and so affect critical current density jc. The boron concentration increase in initial Mg and B mixture allows obtaining sample containing 88.5 wt% of MgB12 with Tc of 37.4 K (estimated magnetically).
- ItemInvestigation of laser irradiated areas with electron backscatter diffraction(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2012) Heinrich, G.; Höger, I.; Bähr, M.; Stolberg, K.; Wütherich, T.; Leonhardt, M.; Lawerenz, A.; Gobsch, G.In this work, two silicon nitride (SiNx) layers with two different refraction indices, deposited on polished or damageetched silicon wafers were locally irradiated by laser pulses. The focus was set on the investigation of the ablation mechanisms. Thereby, an ultra-short laser source (pulse duration 10 ps, wavelength 532 nm, Gaussian profile) was used. The irradiated areas were investigated by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in order to analyze the nearsurface crystallographic orientation and crystallinity. In this work an indirect ablation was observed for SiN x (n = 1.9). Further, a change from an indirect ablation to a partial lift-off for SiNx (n = 2.1) was determined to be fluence dependent. At low fluences, the SiNx was completely removed. However, at higher fluences, SiNx was not completely removed, due to direct ablation. The two-photonabsorption coefficient of SiNx (n = 2.1) was estimated to be 2·105 cm/TW.
- ItemSuccessful optimization of reconstruction parameters in structured illumination microscopy(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2019) Karras, Christian; Smedh, Maria; Förster, Ronny; Deschout, Hendrik; Fernandez-Rodriguez, Julia; Heintzmann, RainerThe impact of the different reconstruction parameters in super-resolution structured illumination microscopy (SIM) on image artifacts is carefully analyzed. These parameters comprise the Wiener filter parameter, an apodization function, zero-frequency suppression and modifications of the optical transfer function. A detailed investigation of the reconstructed image spectrum is concluded to be suitable for identifying artifacts. For this purpose, two samples, an artificial test slide and a more realistic biological system, were used to characterize the artifact classes and their correlation with the image spectra as well as the reconstruction parameters. In addition, a guideline for efficient parameter optimization is suggested and the implementation of the parameters in selected up-to-date processing packages (proprietary and open-source) is depicted. © 2018 The Authors
- ItemEngineering an achromatic Bessel beam using a phase-only spatial light modulator and an iterative Fourier transformation algorithm(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2016) Walde, Marie; Jost, Aurélie; Wicker, Kai; Heintzmann, RainerBessel illumination is an established method in optical imaging and manipulation to achieve an extended depth of field without compromising the lateral resolution. When broadband or multicolour imaging is required, wavelength-dependent changes in the radial profile of the Bessel illumination can complicate further image processing and analysis. We present a solution for engineering a multicolour Bessel beam that is easy to implement and promises to be particularly useful for broadband imaging applications. A phase-only spatial light modulator (SLM) in the image plane and an iterative Fourier Transformation algorithm (IFTA) are used to create an annular light distribution in the back focal plane of a lens. The 2D Fourier transformation of such a light ring yields a Bessel beam with a constant radial profile for different wavelength.
