CDT Film Evening 29th March- Kong: Skull Island
CDT PGRs had a film evening on Friday 29th March, with the theme of ‘scientifically inaccurate fun movies’, complete with pizza. The chosen film was Kong: Skull Island and our PGRs were joined by some Physics PGRs based outside of the CDT, as well as a few plus ones. Everybody had a great time and […]
Impact of pump wavelength on terahertz emission of a cavity-enhanced spintronic trilayer
Congratulations to third year CDT PGR Rosamund Herapath for her recent publication of Impact of pump wavelength on terahertz emission of a cavity-enhanced spintronic trilayer in Applied Physics Letters. In this paper, the authors enhance the THz generation of a novel, thin-film THz emitter by adding a set of dielectric overlayers. In doing so, […]

New Publication: Origins of All-Optical Generation of Plasmons in Graphene
Congratulations to fourth year CDT PGR Craig Tollerton who has recently published an article on Origins of All-Optical Generation of Plasmons in Graphene in Scientific Reports journal. Abstract below. Abstract Graphene, despite its centrosymmetric structure, is predicted to have a substantial second order nonlinearity, arising from non-local effects. However, there is disagreement between several published […]
