Dipyrrolonaphthyridinediones (DPNDs) entered the chemical world in 2016. This cross-
conjugated donor–acceptor skeleton can be prepared in two steps from commercially …

Significant progress has been achieved with silicon carbide (SiC) high power electronics
and quantum technologies, both drawing upon the unique properties of this material. In this …

Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) with high porosity and great optical features can be used as a
luminescent material. One year later, the same group investigated the NLO properties CNPs …

The formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSSs) on chemically vapour
deposited diamond upon femtosecond laser processing changes the optical properties of …

A technique of two-stage three-dimensional mapping of the optical breakdown threshold in
diamond crystals is proposed. In the first stage diamond is irradiated by high-energy …

We demonstrate that the multi-photon absorption edge transient-current technique (edge-
TCT) can be used to three-dimensionally map the impact of defect distributions on device …

The paper reports a possibility of using high-power femtosecond laser pulses for imaging
and subsequent study (by means of optical microscopy) of small-scale structural …

We present an overview of the latest developments from RD42 in diamond detector R&D.
They include the radiation hardness coefficients for 800MeV and 24 GeV protons, the hit …
