    • Composite materials with vanishing effective permittivity 

      Akpan, Usenobong Benjamin (2023-11-29) - Thesis
      My PhD research thesis, entitled "Composite materials with vanishing effective permittivity" is presented here. Epsilon Near Zero (ENZ) Metamaterials (MMs) are photonic media in which the real part of the relative dielectric ...

    • Measurements and modelling of the kinetics of thermally activated delayed fluorescence 

      Diesing, Stefan (2023-11-29) - Thesis
      Efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) enable the commercialisation of energy efficient and high contrast displays, and are being exploited increasingly in telecommunication and biomedical applications. In an ...

    • Imaging surface magnetism in ruthenates 

      Benedičič, Izidor (2023-11-29) - Thesis
      The rapid development of technologies used in computers and consumer electronics is founded in modern condensed matter physics. Advances in the physics of lasers, semiconductors and nanofabrication have enabled precise ...

    • The formation of high-mass stars and stellar clusters 

      Zhang, Suinan (2023-11-29) - Thesis
      The earliest phase of high-mass star formation has remained a challenging topic. The distinguishing feature between competing theoretical models is the prediction for the high-mass prestellar cores. This thesis presents ...

    • Prominences : the phantom menace 

      Waugh, Rosie (2023-11-29) - Thesis
      It has been proposed that slingshot prominences may be a mass and angular momentum loss mechanism for rapidly rotating young stars. Stellar evolution models currently rely only on the wind as the angular momentum loss ...
