Abstract: A monolithic reusable microwire assembly can include a substrate and an electrically conductive thin-film wire formed on the substrate. The conductive thin-film wire can include a narrow segment forming an active area. A thermally and electrically insulating barrier can be formed on the electrically conductive thin-film wire. A roughness-reducing layer can be formed on the thermally and electrically insulating barrier and can have minimal surface roughness.

Abstract: An organic, spin-dependent magnetic field sensor (10) includes an active stack (12) having an organic material with a spin-dependence. The sensor (10) also includes a back electrical contact (14) electrically coupled to a back of the active stack (12) and a front electrical contact (16) electrically coupled to a front of the active stack (12). A magnetic field generator (18) is oriented so as to provide an oscillating magnetic field which penetrates the active stack (12).

Abstract: A method of inducing nuclear spin hyper-antipolarization in a solid material is disclosed and described. The solid material can be subjected to an ultralow temperature and a magnetic field. The solid material can include donor nuclei and a carrier material while the material also has both a nuclear spin and an electron spin which are coupled sufficiently to allow an Overhauser effect. The solid material can be subjected at the ultralow temperature to a light source for a time sufficient to induce a substantial nuclear spin antipolarization in the solid material and form a nuclear spin hyper-antipolarized material. The ultralow temperature and light source are controlled so as to be sufficient to drive a non-equilibrium nuclear Overhauser effect of hyperfine coupled electron and nuclear spins. The resulting nuclear spin hyper-antipolarized material can be used for a variety of applications such as medical imaging and quantum computing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for analyzing a biological tissue, whereby a luminescence light of a luminescence substance is detected. The aim of the invention is to increase the precision and reliability of the analysis. To this end, a permutation symmetry imbalance is generated in the tissue by a magnetic field, the permutation symmetry imbalance is modified at a pre-determined location by a magnetic alternating field, and the luminescence light is detected according to the pre-determined location.
