  abstract  = {Earlier reports demonstrated that ternary organic solar cells (OSC) made of donor polymers (D) blended with different mixtures of fullerene acceptors (A : A) performed very similarly. This finding is surprising, as the corresponding fullerene LUMO levels are slightly different, which might result in decisive differences in the charge transfer step. We investigate ternary OSC (D : A : A) made of the donor polymer P3HT with stoichiometric mixtures of different fullerene derivatives, PC\(_{60}\)BM : PC\(_{70}\)BM and PC\(_{70}\)BM : IC\(_{60}\)BA, respectively. Using quantitative electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) we can distinguish between positive and negative polarons, localized on the specific molecules. We found that after the initial charge transfer step, the electrons are re-distributed over two nearby acceptors in agreement with their stoichiometry and their relative LUMO energy difference. Remarkably, the measured ΔLUMO differences in fullerene mixtures are reduced by an order of magnitude compared to that of the pristine materials, i. e., below 1 meV for PC\(_{60}\)BM : PC\(_{70}\)BM and (20±5) meV for PC\(_{70}\)BM : IC\(_{60}\)BA. Furthermore, we found that this reduced ΔLUMO explains the shift in open circuit voltage for D : A : A organic solar cells. We attribute these findings to hybridization, leading to an effective fullerene LUMO. Consequently, multi-acceptor blends are indeed a viable option for photodetectors and solar cells, as they combine the best electron acceptor and light absorbing properties.},

  abstract  = {Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) is the method of choice to study biological specimens on a nanoscale level. Advantages of SMLM imply its superior specificity due to targeted molecular fluorescence labeling and its enhanced tissue preservation compared to electron microscopy, while reaching similar resolution. To reveal the molecular organization of protein structures in brain tissue, SMLM moves to the forefront: Instead of investigating brain slices with a thickness of a few µm, measurements of intact neuronal assemblies (up to 100 µm in each dimension) are required. As proteins are distributed in the whole brain volume and can move along synapses in all directions, this method is promising in revealing arrangements of neuronal protein markers. However, diffraction-limited imaging still required for the localization of the fluorophores is prevented by sample-induced distortion of emission pattern due to optical aberrations in tissue slices from non-superficial planes. In particular, the sample causes wavefront dephasing, which can be described as a summation of Zernike polynomials. To recover an optimal point spread function (PSF), active shaping can be performed by the use of adaptive optics. The aim of this thesis is to establish a setup using a deformable mirror and a wavefront sensor to actively shape the PSF to correct the wavefront phases in a super-resolution microscope setup. Therefore, fluorescence-labeled proteins expressed in different anatomical regions in brain tissue will be used as experiment specimen. Resolution independent imaging depth in slices reaching tens of micrometers is aimed.},

  abstract  = {Breaking inversion symmetry in crystalline solids enables the formation of spin-polarized electronic states by spin-orbit coupling without the need for magnetism. A variety of interesting physical phenomena related to this effect have been intensively investigated in recent years, including the Rashba effect, topological insulators and Weyl semimetals. In this work, the interplay of inversion symmetry breaking and spin-orbit coupling and, in particular their general influence on the character of electronic states, i.e., on the spin and orbital degrees of freedom, is investigated experimentally. Two different types of suitable model systems are studied: two-dimensional surface states for which the Rashba effect arises from the inherently broken inversion symmetry at the surface, and a Weyl semimetal, for which inversion symmetry is broken in the three-dimensional crystal structure. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy provides momentum-resolved access to the spin polarization and the orbital composition of electronic states by means of photoelectron spin detection and dichroism with polarized light. The experimental results shown in this work are also complemented and supported by ab-initio density functional theory calculations and simple model considerations. Altogether, it is shown that the breaking of inversion symmetry has a decisive influence on the Bloch wave function, namely, the formation of an orbital angular momentum. This mechanism is, in turn, of fundamental importance both for the physics of the surface Rashba effect and the topology of the Weyl semimetal TaAs.},

  abstract  = {Objectives Vessel wall enhancement (VWE) may be commonly seen on MRI images of asymptomatic subjects. This study aimed to characterize the VWE of the proximal internal carotid (ICA) and vertebral arteries (VA) in a non-vasculitic elderly patient cohort. Methods Cranial MRI scans at 3 Tesla were performed in 43 patients (aged ≥ 50 years) with known malignancy for exclusion of cerebral metastases. For vessel wall imaging (VWI), a high-resolution compressed-sensing black-blood 3D T1-weighted fast (turbo) spin echo sequence (T1 CS-SPACE prototype) was applied post gadolinium with an isotropic resolution of 0.55 mm. Bilateral proximal intradural ICA and VA segments were evaluated for presence, morphology, and longitudinal extension of VWE. Results Concentric VWE of the proximal intradural ICA was found in 13 (30\%) patients, and of the proximal intradural VA in 39 (91\%) patients. Mean longitudinal extension of VWE after dural entry was 13 mm in the VA and 2 mm in the ICA. In 14 of 39 patients (36\%) with proximal intradural VWE, morphology of VWE was suggestive of the mere presence of vasa vasorum. In 25 patients (64 \%), morphology indicated atherosclerotic lesions in addition to vasa vasorum. Conclusions Vasa vasorum may account for concentric VWE within the proximal 2 mm of the ICA and 13 mm of the VA after dural entry in elderly subjects. Concentric VWE in these locations should not be confused with large artery vasculitis. Distal to these segments, VWE may be more likely related to pathologic conditions such as vasculitis.},

  abstract  = {X-ray dark-field imaging allows to resolve the conflict between the demand for centimeter scaled fields of view and the spatial resolution required for the characterization of fibrous materials structured on the micrometer scale. It draws on the ability of X-ray Talbot interferometers to provide full field images of a sample's ultra small angle scattering properties, bridging a gap of multiple orders of magnitude between the imaging resolution and the contrasted structure scale. The correspondence between shape anisotropy and oriented scattering thereby allows to infer orientations within a sample's microstructure below the imaging resolution. First demonstrations have shown the general feasibility of doing so in a tomographic fashion, based on various heuristic signal models and reconstruction approaches. Here, both a verified model of the signal anisotropy and a reconstruction technique practicable for general imaging geometries and large tensor valued volumes is developed based on in-depth reviews of dark-field imaging and tomographic reconstruction techniques. To this end, a wide interdisciplinary field of imaging and reconstruction methodologies is revisited. To begin with, a novel introduction to the mathematical description of perspective projections provides essential insights into the relations between the tangible real space properties of cone beam imaging geometries and their technically relevant description in terms of homogeneous coordinates and projection matrices. Based on these fundamentals, a novel auto-calibration approach is developed, facilitating the practical determination of perspective imaging geometries with minimal experimental constraints. A corresponding generalized formulation of the widely employed Feldkamp algorithm is given, allowing fast and flexible volume reconstructions from arbitrary tomographic imaging geometries. Iterative reconstruction techniques are likewise introduced for general projection geometries, with a particular focus on the efficient evaluation of the forward problem associated with tomographic imaging. A highly performant 3D generalization of Joseph's classic linearly interpolating ray casting algorithm is developed to this end and compared to typical alternatives. With regard to the anisotropic imaging modality required for tensor tomography, X-ray dark-field contrast is extensively reviewed. Previous literature is brought into a joint context and nomenclature and supplemented by original work completing a consistent picture of the theory of dark-field origination. Key results are explicitly validated by experimental data with a special focus on tomography as well as the properties of anisotropic fibrous scatterers. In order to address the pronounced susceptibility of interferometric images to subtle mechanical imprecisions, an efficient optimization based evaluation strategy for the raw data provided by Talbot interferometers is developed. Finally, the fitness of linear tensor models with respect to the derived anisotropy properties of dark-field contrast is evaluated, and an iterative scheme for the reconstruction of tensor valued volumes from projection images is proposed. The derived methods are efficiently implemented and applied to fiber reinforced plastic samples, imaged at the ID19 imaging beamline of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The results represent unprecedented demonstrations of X-ray dark-field tensor tomography at a field of view of 3-4cm, revealing local fiber orientations of both complex shaped and low-contrast samples at a spatial resolution of 0.1mm in 3D. The results are confirmed by an independent micro CT based fiber analysis.},

  abstract  = {Photoelectron spectroscopy proves as a versatile tool for investigating various aspects of the electronic structure in strongly correlated electron systems. Influencing the manifestation of strong correlation in Ce-based surface alloys is the main task of this work. It is shown, that the manifestation of the Kondo ground state is influenced by a multitude of parameters such as the choice of the metal binding partner in binary Ce compounds, the surface alloy layer thickness and accompanying variations in the lattice structure as well as the interfaces to substrate or vacuum. Gaining access to these parameters allows to directly influence essential state variables, such as the f level occupancy nf or the Kondo temperature TK. The center of this work are the intermetallic thin films of CePt5/Pt(111) and CeAgx/Ag(111). By utilizing different excitation energies, photoemission spectroscopy provides access to characteristic features of Kondo physics in the valence band, such as the Kondo resonance and its spin-orbit partner at the Fermi level, as well as the multiplet structure of the Ce 3d core levels. In this work both approaches are applied to CePt5/Pt(111) to determine nf and TK for a variety of surface alloy layer thicknesses. A temperature dependent study of the Ce 3d core levels allows to determine the systems TK for the different layer thicknesses. This leads to TK ≈200-270K in the thin layer thickness regime and TK >280K for larger layer thicknesses. These results are confirmed by fitting the Ce 3d multiplet based on the Gunnarsson-Sch{\"o}nhammer formalism for core level spectroscopy and additionally by valence band photoemission spectra of the respective Kondo resonances. The influence of varying layer thickness on the manifestation of strong correlation is subsequently studied for the surface alloy CeAgx/Ag(111). Furthermore, the heavy element Bi is added, to investigate the effects of strong spin-orbit coupling on the electronic structure of the surface alloy.},

  abstract  = {Purpose T\(_{1P}\) dispersion quantification can potentially be used as a cardiac magnetic resonance index for sensitive detection of myocardial fibrosis without the need of contrast agents. However, dispersion quantification is still a major challenge, because T\(_{1P}\) mapping for different spin lock amplitudes is a very time consuming process. This study aims to develop a fast and accurate T\(_{1P}\) mapping sequence, which paves the way to cardiac T1ρ dispersion quantification within the limited measurement time of an in vivo study in small animals. Methods A radial spin lock sequence was developed using a Bloch simulation-optimized sampling pattern and a view-sharing method for image reconstruction. For validation, phantom measurements with a conventional sampling pattern and a gold standard sequence were compared to examine T\(_{1P}\) quantification accuracy. The in vivo validation of T\(_{1P}\) mapping was performed in N = 10 mice and in a reproduction study in a single animal, in which ten maps were acquired in direct succession. Finally, the feasibility of myocardial dispersion quantification was tested in one animal. Results The Bloch simulation-based sampling shows considerably higher image quality as well as improved T\(_{1P}\) quantification accuracy (+ 56\%) and precision (+ 49\%) compared to conventional sampling. Compared to the gold standard sequence, a mean deviation of - 0.46 ± 1.84\% was observed. The in vivo measurements proved high reproducibility of myocardial T\(_{1P}\) mapping. The mean T\(_{1P}\) in the left ventricle was 39.5 ± 1.2 ms for different animals and the maximum deviation was 2.1\% in the successive measurements. The myocardial T\(_{1P}\) dispersion slope, which was measured for the first time in one animal, could be determined to be 4.76 ± 0.23 ms/kHz. Conclusion This new and fast T\(_{1P}\) quantification technique enables high-resolution myocardial T\(_{1P}\) mapping and even dispersion quantification within the limited time of an in vivo study and could, therefore, be a reliable tool for improved tissue characterization.},

  abstract  = {Quantenpunktkontakte (englisch: quantum point contacts, QPCs) sind eindimensionale Engstellen in einem ansonsten zweidimensionalen Elektronen- oder Lochsystem. Seit der erstmaligen Realisierung in GaAs-basierten zweidimensionalen Elektronengasen sind QPCs sukzessive zu einem Grundbestandteil mesoskopischer Physik geworden und erfahren in einer Vielzahl von Experimenten Anwendung. Jedoch ist es bis zur Anfertigung der vorliegenden Arbeit nicht gelungen, QPCs in der neuen Materialklasse der zweidimensionalen topologischen Isolatoren zu realisieren. In diesen Materialien tritt der sogenannte Quanten-Spin-Hall-Effekt (QSH-Effekt) auf, welcher sich durch die Ausbildung von leitf{\"a}higen, eindimensionalen sowie gleichermaßen spinpolarisierten Zust{\"a}nden an der Bauteilkante auszeichnet, w{\"a}hrend die restlichen Bereiche der Probe isolierend sind. Ein in einem zweidimensionalen topologischen Isolator realisierter QPC kann demgem{\"a}ß daf{\"u}r benutzt werden, die sich stets an der Bauteilkante befindlichen QSH-Randkan{\"a}le einander r{\"a}umlich anzun{\"a}hern, was beispielsweise die Untersuchung potentieller Wechselwirkungseffekte zwischen ebenjenen Randkan{\"a}len erm{\"o}glicht. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt die erstmalig erfolgreich durchgef{\"u}hrte Implementierung einer QPC-Technologie in einem QSH-System. {\"U}berdies werden die neuartigen Bauteile experimentell charakterisiert sowie analysiert. Nach einer in Kapitel 1 erfolgten Einleitung der Arbeit besch{\"a}ftigt sich das nachfolgende Kapitel 2 zun{\"a}chst mit der besonderen Bandstruktur von HgTe. In diesem Kontext wird die Ausbildung der QSH-Phase f{\"u}r HgTe-Quantentr{\"o}ge mit einer invertierten Bandstruktur erl{\"a}utert, welche f{\"u}r deren Auftreten eine Mindesttrogdicke von d_QW > d_c = 6.3 nm aufweisen m{\"u}ssen. Im Anschluss wird das Konzept eines QPCs allgemein eingef{\"u}hrt sowie das zugeh{\"o}rige Transportverhalten analytisch beschrieben. {\"U}berdies werden die Einschr{\"a}nkungen und Randbedingungen diskutiert, welche bei der Realisierung eines QPCs in einem QSH-System Ber{\"u}cksichtigung finden m{\"u}ssen. Darauf folgt die Pr{\"a}sentation des eigens zur QPC-Herstellung entwickelten Lithographieprozesses, welcher auf einer mehrstufigen Anwendung eines f{\"u}r HgTe-Quantentrogstrukturen geeigneten nasschemischen {\"A}tzverfahrens beruht. Die im Nachgang diskutierten Transportmessungen exemplarischer Proben zeigen die erwartete Leitwertquantisierung in Schritten von ΔG ≈ 2e^2/h im Bereich des Leitungsbandes -- sowohl f{\"u}r eine topologische als auch f{\"u}r eine triviale (d_QW < d_c) QPC-Probe. Mit dem Erreichen der Bandl{\"u}cke saturiert der Leitwert f{\"u}r den topologischen QPC um G_QSH ≈ 2e^2/h, wohingegen ebenjener f{\"u}r den Fall des trivialen Bauteils auf G ≈ 0 abf{\"a}llt. Dar{\"u}ber hinaus belegen durchgef{\"u}hrte Messungen des differentiellen Leitwertes einer invertierten QPC-Probe in Abh{\"a}ngigkeit einer Biasspannung die stabile Koexistenz von topologischen und trivialen Transportmoden. Gegenstand von Kapitel 3 ist die Beschreibung der Ausbildung eines QSH-Interferometers in QPCs mit geringer Weite, welche unter Verwendung von Quantentr{\"o}gen mit einer Trogdicke von d_QW = 7 nm hergestellt werden. Die Diskussion von Bandstrukturrechnungen legt dar, dass die r{\"a}umliche Ausdehnung der Randkan{\"a}le von der jeweiligen Position der Fermi-Energie im Bereich der Bandl{\"u}cke abh{\"a}ngt. Hieraus resultiert eine Transportsituation, in welcher -- unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen -- Reservoir-Elektronen mit randomisiertem Spin an beide QSH-Randkan{\"a}le mit gleicher Wahrscheinlichkeit koppeln, was in der Ausbildung eines QSH-Rings resultiert. Diese Ringbildung wird im Rahmen eines durch Plausibilit{\"a}ts{\"u}berpr{\"u}fung getesteten Modells erkl{\"a}rt und spezifiziert. Danach erfolgt eine theoretische Einf{\"u}hrung von drei relevanten Quantenphasen, deren Akkumulation in der Folge f{\"u}r mehrere geeignete QPC-Proben nachgewiesen wird. Es handelt sich hierbei um die Aharonov-Bohm-Phase, um die dynamische Aharonov-Casher-Phase sowie um eine Spin-Bahn-Berry-Phase mit einem Wert von π. Diese experimentellen Ergebnisse stehen dar{\"u}ber hinaus im Einklang mit analytischen Modellbetrachtungen. Das anschließende Kapitel 4 stellt den letzten Teil der Arbeit dar und besch{\"a}ftigt sich mit der Beobachtung einer anomalen Leitwertsignatur, welche f{\"u}r QPC-Proben basierend auf einer Quantentrogdicke von d_QW = 10.5 nm auftritt. Diese Proben zeigen neben der durch die QSH-Phase bedingten Leitwertquantisierung von G_QSH ≈ 2e^2/h ein weiteres Leitwertplateau mit einem Wert von G ≈ e^2/h = 0.5 x G_QSH. Diese sogenannte 0.5-Anomalie ist nur f{\"u}r ein kleines Intervall von QPC-Weiten beobachtbar und wird mit zunehmender Bauteilweite abgeschw{\"a}cht. Weiterf{\"u}hrende Untersuchungen in Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Temperatur sowie einer angelegten Biasspannung deuten dar{\"u}ber hinaus darauf hin, dass das Auftreten der 0.5-Anomalie mit einem modifizierten topologischen Zustand einhergeht. {\"U}berdies wird eine zus{\"a}tzliche sowie vervollst{\"a}ndigende Charakterisierung dieses Transportregimes durch die Realisierung eines neuartigen Bauteilkonzeptes m{\"o}glich, welches einen QPC in eine standardisierte Hall-Bar-Geometrie integriert. Das Ergebnis der experimentellen Analyse einer solchen Probe verkn{\"u}pft das Auftreten der 0.5-Anomalie mit der R{\"u}ckstreuung eines QSH-Randkanals. Demgem{\"a}ß wird aus Sicht des Einteilchenbildes geschlussfolgert, dass im Kontext der 0.5-Anomalie lediglich ein Randkanal transmittiert wird. Zudem werden zwei theoretische Modelle basierend auf Elektron-Elektron-Wechselwirkungen diskutiert, welche beide jeweils als urs{\"a}chlicher Mechanismus f{\"u}r das Auftreten der 0.5-Anomalie in Frage kommen. Abschließend ist zu deduzieren, dass die Implementierung einer QPC-Technologie in einem QSH-System eine bedeutende Entwicklung im Bereich der Erforschung von zweidimensionalen topologischen Isolatoren darstellt, welche eine Vielzahl zuk{\"u}nftiger Experimente erm{\"o}glicht. So existieren beispielsweise theoretische Vorhersagen, dass QPCs in einem QSH-System die Detektion von Majorana- sowie Para-Fermionen erm{\"o}glichen. {\"U}berdies ist die nachgewiesene Ausbildung eines QSH-Interferometers in geeigneten QPC-Proben eine Beobachtung von großer Folgewirkung. So erm{\"o}glicht die beobachtete dynamische Aharonov-Casher-Phase im QSH-Regime die kontrollierbare Modulation des topologischen Leitwertes, was die konzeptionelle Grundlage eines topologischen Transistors darstellt. Eine weitere Anwendungsm{\"o}glichkeit wird durch die Widerstandsf{\"a}higkeit geometrischer Phasen gegen{\"u}ber Dephasierung er{\"o}ffnet, wodurch die nachgewiesene Spin-Bahn-Berry-Phase mit einem Wert von π im Kontext potentieller Quantencomputerkonzepte von Interesse ist. Dar{\"u}ber hinaus ist die Transmission von nur einem QSH-Randkanal im Zuge des Auftretens der 0.5-Anomalie {\"a}quivalent zu 100 \% Spinpolarisierung, was einen Faktor essentieller Relevanz f{\"u}r die Realisierung spintronischer Anwendungen darstellt. Demgem{\"a}ß beinhaltet die vorliegende Arbeit den experimentellen Nachweis von drei unterschiedlichen Effekten, von welchen jedem einzelnen eine fundamentale Rolle im Rahmen der Entwicklung neuer Generationen logischer Bauelemente zukommen kann -- erm{\"o}glicht durch die Realisierung von QPCs in topologischen HgTe-Quantentr{\"o}gen.},
