3d g-factor mapping of single quantum dots at high magnetic fields
Confocal microscopy at cryogenic temperatures has become an essential tool for the study of semiconductor quantum dots. Furthermore if a high magnetic field can be applied to the sample and the sample rotated within the field then even greater information can be obtained from magneto-optical spectroscopy

New functionality of erbium-doped crystalline Si for electro-optical memory applications
In the past decade, considerable research has been aimed at designing storage devices for use in optoelectronics and photonics. Here we show that c-Si:Er has come of age by demonstrating full write-read-erase optical memory functionality for Si:Er structures.

Probing the lightly hole-doped high-Tc superconductor with low temperature STM
The band structure theory predicts that high-Tc superconductors should behave as metals, however superconductivity appears inside a so-called pseudogap state for underdoped material and close to an antiferromagnetic mott-insulator.
