We present a new method for nanoscale atom lithography. We propose the use of a supersonic atomic beam, which provides an extremely high-brightness and cold source of fast atoms. The atoms are to be focused onto a substrate using a thin magnetic film, into which apertures with widths on the order of 100 nm have been etched. Focused spot sizes near or below 10 nm, with focal lengths on the order of 10 microns, are predicted. This scheme is applicable both to precision patterning of surfaces with metastable atomic beams and to direct deposition of material.

We report the stopping of an atomic beam, using a series of pulsed electromagnetic coils. We use a supersonic beam of metastable neon created in a gas discharge as a monochromatic source of paramagnetic atoms. A series of coils is fired in a timed se
quence to bring the atoms to near-rest, where they are detected on a micro-channel plate. Applications to fundamental problems in physics and chemistry are discussed.
We present the first 3D particle-in-cell simulations of laser driven sheath-based ion acceleration in a kilotesla-level applied magnetic field. The applied magnetic field creates two distinct stages in the acceleration process associated with the tim
e-evolving magnetization of the hot electron sheath and results in a focusing, magnetic field-directed ion source of multiple species with strongly enhanced energy and number. The benefits of adding the magnetic field are downplayed in 2D simulations, which strongly suggests the feasibility of observing magnetic field effects under experimentally relevant conditions.
Nanofabrication of photonic components based on dielectric-loaded surface plasmon-polariton waveguides (DLSPPWs) excited by single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in nanodiamonds is demonstrated. DLSPPW circuits are built around NV containing nanodiamo
nds, which are certified to be single-photon emitters, using electron-beam lithography of hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) resist on silver-coated silicon substrates. A propagation length of ~20 {mu}m for the NV single-photon emission is measured with DLSPPWs. A 5-fold enhancement in the total decay rate and up to 63% coupling efficiency to the DLSPPW mode is achieved, indicating significant mode confinement. Finally, we demonstrate routing of single plasmons with DLSPPW-based directional cou-plers, revealing the potential of our approach for on-chip realization of quantum-optical networks.
In this manuscript, we outline a reliable procedure to manufacture photonic nanostructures from single-crystal diamond (SCD). Photonic nanostructures, in our case SCD nanopillars on thin (< 1$mu$m) platforms, are highly relevant for nanoscale sensing
. The presented top-down procedure includes electron beam lithography (EBL) as well as reactive ion etching (RIE). Our method introduces a novel type of inter-layer, namely silicon, that significantly enhances the adhesion of hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) electron beam resist to SCD and avoids sample charging during EBL. In contrast to previously used adhesion layers, our silicon layer can be removed using a highly-selective RIE step which is not damaging HSQ mask structures. We thus refine published nanofabrication processes to ease a higher process reliability especially in the light of the advancing commercialization of SCD sensor devices.
Magnetic oscillation is a generic property of electronic conductors under magnetic fields and widely appreciated as a useful probe of their electronic band structure, i.e., the Fermi surface geometry. However, the usage of the strong static magnetic
field makes the measurement insensitive to the magnetic order of the target material. That is, the magnetic order is anyhow turned into a forced ferromagnetic one. Here we theoretically propose an experimental method of measuring the magnetic oscillation in a magnetic-order-resolved way by using the azimuthal cylindrical vector (CV) beam, an example of topological lightwaves. The azimuthal CV beam is unique in that when focused tightly, it develops a pure longitudinal magnetic field. We argue that this characteristic focusing property and the discrepancy in the relaxation timescale between conduction electrons and localized magnetic moments allow us to develop the nonequilibrium analog of the magnetic oscillation measurement. Our optical method would be also applicable to metals the under ultra-high pressure of diamond anvil cells.
