Above Bandgap Hyperpolarization Mechanism in Isotopically Purified Silicon and Optimal Bayesian Experiment Design for $T_1$ Estimation
(University of Waterloo, 2018-05-24)This thesis is concerned with the mechanism underlying the above bandgap illumination Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) of phosphorus donors in isotopically purified silicon-28. Two proposed DNP models are introduced and ... -
Developing a Generalized Model for Neutron Diffraction with Quantum Information Theory
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-31)Due to their high mass and neutral electric charge, neutrons are often used at low energies to probe small-scale structures or measure fundamental constants of nature. To design neutron optical elements for use in these ... -
Neutron Scattering Investigations of Three-Dimensional Topological States
(University of Waterloo, 2023-11-13)Topological magnets represent a unique class of quantum materials in which a nontrivial Berry curvature in real- or momentum-space couples to the magnetic properties of the topological electronic or spin system. Magnetic ... -
Statistical Muon Tracking: A Study of Cosmic Backgrounds in the PROSPECT Experiment
(University of Waterloo, 2021-09-30)The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment (PROSPECT) has successfully demonstrated novel particle identification strategies with minimal protection from cosmic events. Located at the High Flux Isotope Reactor ...
