Functional Nanomaterials and their Potential for Sensor Applications

Prof. Christian Müller
Professor visitante estrangeiro PPGFSC

Abstract:

Firstly, shapeable electronic devices as a novel class of ultra-compact building blocks have gained much attention during the last years. The main goal of these devicesis the integration of flexible nanomembranes or thin films in multifunctional devices with established technologies of micro- and nanofabrication. In particular, rolled-up nanomembranes can lead to several advantages against other structures, such as easy scalability, low footprint size and reduced fabrication costs. Recently, rolled-up magnetic nanomembranes have been successfully realized and triggered further studies on the magnetism in such structures. Secondly, carbon nanomaterials show promising properties for sensor applications. Besides the exceptional properties of a single walled nanotube with a Young´s modulus up to 1000 GPa and a 1000-point higher permitted current density than copper, also films of carbon nanomaterials show outstanding sensor properties. For instance, large-area, as well as structured, flexible films of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be prepared for sensor applications, such as strain gauges or pressure sensors. Moreover with less than 1% filler material input conductive and percolation based CNT-polymer-composite sensors can be fabricated. Selected results from aforementioned two fields will be highlighted in this presentation. Finally, potential future works and student projects will be proposed.

THE PHYSICS GRADUATE PROGRAM invites everyone to the seminar:

Philip Walther is a Professor and Vice Dean at the University of Vienna. His research group is dedicated to quantum information experiments and one of the leaders in photonic quantum computing.

  Quantum photonics for quantum causality 

Abstract:

The advantages of the photons make optical quantum systems ideally suited for quantum foundations experiments and for a variety of quantum information applications. Here I will present new experimental insights into concepts that superimpose the order of quantum operations and its exploit for novel quantum technology applications. I will also present experiments that demonstrate entangled temporal orders

  D.V. Kamanin: “Joint Institute for Nuclear Research: platform forinternational cooperation”

V.O. Nesterenko: “Toroidal excitations in nuclei”. 

Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research,

Dubna, Moscow region, Russia

 Abstract:

 The E1 toroidal resonance (TR) is the only known intrinsic vortical mode in atomic nuclei. The TR is interesting in many aspects: it i) can be used as a measure of the nuclear dipole vorticity, ii) is a source of the pygmy dipole resonance, iii) forms the low-energy pat of the isoscalar giant dipole resonance, iv) is realized as a spherical Hill’s vortex well known in hydrodynamics, v) demonstrates elasticity. Toroidal moments are discussed in various areas: from dark matter to metamaterials. However the TR in nuclei still has many open problems, both in theory and experiment. The talk outlines main TR features and presents the recent Skyrme QRPA results of Dubna – Prague – Bratislava – Erlangen collaboration in this field. In particular, it will be shown that light highly-prolate nuclei, like 24Mg, provide new opportunities, maybe even breakthrough, in the search of the toroidal excitations. In these nuclei, the toroidal excitations can appear as the lowest by energy individual dipole states. Such states could serve as new promising tests for various reactions to probe a nuclear vortical flow.

O Brasil, por meio do MCTI, está formalizando um acordo internacional com o JINR, que possui vários laboratórios modernos destinados não só a área de física nuclear (alguns isótopos foram recentemente sintetizados por lá, como o Dubniun e o Flerovium), mas também muito utilizados  na área de estado sólido, com ênfase em novos materiais. O acordo, do qual a UFSC será signatáriapor meio da SINTER, envolverá:

1. For better knowing what is JINR – participation of a relevant UFSC manager in JEMS programme (http://www.jinr.ru/jems )
2. Selection of senior students to participate in JINR summer programme via http://students.jinr.r
3. Selection of a couple of masters/phd to participate in JINR student practice: http://ucnew.jinr.ru/en/isp the best occasion will be June 03-25 jointly with South Africans
4. Participation in JINR postdoc programme related to pur flagship projects – to be annonced soon 5. To participate in JINR Virtual Labs initiative as advance user: http://v-labs.ru (free)
