It was a serendipitous finding that led ARCNL/UvA PhD researcher Lorenzo Cruciani to the discovery of a new method to directly write patterns of ruthenium with a laser. In a …
ARCNL researchers Thomas van den Hooven and Paul Planken have found a way to enhance acoustic-wave-induced diffraction changes from a sample similar to those used for wafer alignment in nanolithography.
NWO announced that ARCNL, Delft University and ASML will receive funding for their research program ‘Fundamentals of Electron Beam Inspection and Metrology’. ARCNL group leaders Paul Planken and Roland Bliem …
PhD student Guido de Haan successfully defended his thesis ‘Enhanced Generation and Detection of Ultrafast Laser-Induced Acoustic Signals’ on January 28th at the University of Amsterdam. De Haan carried out …
On October 4th Igor Milov received a Rubicon Grant from the Dutch Research Council (NWO). With this grant Milov will investigate phase transitions in nanoparticles and thin films induced by …
Two ARCNL publications were recently highlighted by the editors of the two journals: The Editorial Board of Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) selected the publication UV and VUV-induced fragmentation of …
ARCNL researchers use plasmonic resonance to amplify tiny changes in reflection To extract information from very subtle changes in a signal, researchers either have to measure over a long period, …
On April 6th Vanessa Verrina successfully defended her thesis ‘Laser-induced ultrasound for the detection of buried micro- and nano-structures’ at the University of Amsterdam. Verrina did her doctoral research in …
Researchers at ARCNL have found a way to detect nanostructures buried under many layers of opaque material, using very high frequency sound waves induced by light. Their findings are promising …
In June two PhD students of ARCNL successfully defended their theses at the University of Amsterdam. Because of the Covid-19 measures their PhD defenses were held online through ZOOM. On …
