An analysis of the roles played by Born’s rule, Bell’s theorem and Bohr’s complementarity in the establishment of the quantum-classical boundary
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2018-08-28)
This work contains a series of contributions that are related, in one form or
another, with the placement of the quantum-classical boundary. Three results that
have been widely taken as characteristic traits of quantum ...
Optical and luminiscent properties of terbium / ytterbium doped aluminum oxynitride and terbium doped aluminum nitride thin films
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2020-08-06)
In the present thesis the optical and light emission properties of two systems consisting of Tb3+ and Yb3+ doped amorphous AlOxNy thin films and Tb3+ doped polycrystalline AlN thin films were analyzed. In the two ions system, ...
Propagating reaction fronts in moving fluids
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2015-10-20)
La presente tesis tuvo como objetivo estudiar frentes de reacción modelados mediante la ecuación de Kuramoto-Sivashinsky sujetos a diferentes tipos de movimiento de fluido: flujo externo de Poiseuille, el cual es contrastado ...
Analysis of the physical properties and photoelectrochemical behavior of c-Si/a-SiC:H(p) photocathodes for solar water splitting
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-01-16)
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) processes have become an efficient and viable method for solar energy conversion into zero-emission fuels by harnessing and storage the power of the sun, which offers an environment-friendly ...
Testing pALPIDE sensors for particle detection and Characterization of a Laser beam using a webcam CMOS sensor
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-01-16)
The upgrade program of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was implemented during the second Long Shutdown program (2019/2020). For this program, the ALICE Collaboration (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) proposed, among others, ...
Synthesis, tribology, electro-tribology and mechanical performance of ti2alc and ti3alc2 max phases thin films
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-01-26)
This thesis investigates the synthesis, mechanical properties, tribological and electro-tribological
behavior of Ti2AlC and Ti3AlC2 MAX phases in the form of thin films. The thin films were obtained by
deposition of a ...
Coherencia como recurso en los sistemas cuánticos abiertos
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-07-26)
In this thesis, we address open quantum systems subjected to Markovian and non-
Markovian evolutions. We diagnose these two regimes using the relative entropy of
coherence. We specially address the case of two qubits ...
Characterization of luminescent ITO:Tb and AZO:Tb thin films prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-05-09)
This thesis investigates the effects of introducing terbium to indium tin oxide (ITO) and
aluminum zinc oxide (AZO) thin films on their electrical, optical and light emission properties.
The films were prepared by radio ...
Construction of radon chamber to expose active and passive detectors
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-02-14)
In this research and development, we present the design and manufacture of a radon chamber
(PUCP radon chamber), a necessary tool for the calibration of passive detectors, verification
of the operation of active radon ...
From light neutrino decay phenomenology to muon neutrino cross-section measurement at MINERvA experiment
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-08-15)
This thesis tackles two essential topics of neutrino physics: neutrino decay and
neutrino cross-section measurement. First, the invisible and visible neutrino
decay is analyzed through a phenomenological approach, ...
