Dynamics and Organization of Passive and Magnetically Driven Colloids Under Optical Confinement
The physics of confined systems of interacting particles has been a subject of active research for more than a century. Such systems are ubiquitous in nature - examples include petroleum in porous rocks, cytoplasm in ... -
Engineering Plasmonic Interactions in Three Dimensional Nanostructured Systems
(2018-02-08)Strong light matter interactions in metallic nanoparticles (NPs), especially those made of noble metals such as Gold and Silver is at the heart of much ongoing research in nanoplasmonics. Individual NPs can support collective ... -
Experimental Investigation of Electrons In and Above Liquid Helium
Electrons on the surface of liquid helium form a nearly ideal 2-dimensional electron system (2DES). An electron density up to 2 × 10^9 cm-2, known as the critical electron density, can be achieved on the liquid helium ... -
Experimental Investigation of Multielectron Bubbles in Liquid Helium
(2017-11-28)Multielectron bubbles (MEBs) are micron sized cavities in liquid helium that contain electrons confined within a nanometer thick layer on the inner surface of a bubble. These objects present a rich platform to study the ... -
Exploring Electron Bubbles in Liquid Helium using Cavitation
An electron entering liquid helium experiences a repulsive potential of 1 eV. This originates in the interaction between the injected electron and electrons of the closed shells of helium atoms through Pauli exclusion ... -
Magnetically powered helical nanoswimmers
From flocking birds to migrating cells, ‘active matter’ is ubiquitous in the natural world. Almost all known life forms are based on self-propelled entities working collectively to create large-scale structures, networks, ... -
Studying bubbles in liquid He4 containing single and many electrons
Helium is an inert element with fully occupied orbitals and is a super fluid at low temperatures. An electron close to the surface of liquid Helium faces a long range attraction due to the finite polarizability of the ...
