Derecho de acceso a la información : el desafío de una sociedad guiada por la transparencia en el ordenamiento jurídico español
2021
This study will address the two aspects of rights linked to information, the right to information and the right to information, to end with the formulation of some conclusions that, distancing themselves from a mere summary, seek to encourage doctrinal and political debate on assumptions that, being peacefully settled, should be reformulated in light of the repeated crisis of transparency. For this, it will be articulated by addressing, first, the most significant aspects of the right to information and its link with the right to freedom of expression, as well as the new challenges that these rights face in the digital age, to then analyze the right to information, its regulation in the Spa…
Hybrid perovskites for light-emitting and photovoltaic devices
2017
El objetivo de esta tesis es el desarrollo de métodos y materiales apropiados para la preparación de capas delgadas de perovskitas híbridas, y su implementación en dispositivos optoelectrónicos. Se dedicará particular atención a las relaciones entre la naturaleza del material, el método de deposición y las propiedades optoelectrónicas. El trabajo está organizado como sigue: - Células solares de perovskitas preparadas por evaporación flash. Se desarrolla un simple método de evaporación por la preparación de células solares. - Dispositivos de perovskita con alta eficiencia fotovoltaica y electroluminiscente. En este capítulo se presentan dispositivos optoelectrónicos de perovskitas preparados…
Deep-Sea Bioluminescence Blooms after Dense Water Formation at the Ocean Surface
2013
The deep ocean is the largest and least known ecosystem on Earth. It hosts numerous pelagic organisms, most of which are able to emit light. Here we present a unique data set consisting of a 2.5-year long record of light emission by deep-sea pelagic organisms, measured from December 2007 to June 2010 at the ANTARES underwater neutrino telescope in the deep NW Mediterranean Sea, jointly with synchronous hydrological records. This is the longest continuous time-series of deep-sea bioluminescence ever recorded. Our record reveals several weeks long, seasonal bioluminescence blooms with light intensity up to two orders of magnitude higher than background values, which correlate to changes in th…

Stable and efficient Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells
2014
La evolución de la tecnología exige el diseño de nuevas pantallas y sis-temas de iluminación. En este marco se necesitan rendimientos mejores y diseños avanzados y novedosos de productos. Los diodos orgánicos emisores de luz (OLEDs) son una alternativa factible a los sistemas inorgánicos debido a sus propiedades físicas únicas. Se pueden preparar dispositivos muy finos que pueden ser procesados a temperatura ambiente en sustratos grandes y flexibles. Además, sus propiedades se pueden ajustar fácilmente modificando la estructura química de las moléculas emisoras. Los rendimientos de los OLEDs están ya muy cercanos a los obtenidos utilizando las tecnologías clá-sicas inorgánicas. Sin embargo,…
Vector FWM in optical fibers: tuning techniques and applications
2022
Recientemente, el efecto no lineal de mezcla de cuatro ondas (FWM) en fibras ópticas ha atraído un gran interés para el desarrollo de nuevas fuentes de luz de fibra óptica debido a la emisión de luz múltiple producida por este efecto no lineal. En los últimos años, estas fuentes de luz basadas en FWM han demostrado una gran utilidad en áreas como la óptica cuántica y la microscopía avanzada basada en efecto Raman. Además, según el estado de polarización de la luz de bombeo responsable del efecto FWM y la birrefringencia de la fibra, la luz producida por FWM puede presentar diferentes propiedades de polarización dada la naturaleza vectorial de FWM. Esto posibilita el diseño y desarrollo de f…
Passive direct measurement of sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence spectrum from in vivo leaves
2022
The fluorescence of chlorophyll in vegetation is a weak signal emitted between 650 and 850 nm that is mixed with the much more intense light reflected by the leaf, which is why active methods are commonly used (through the additional contribution of controlled artificial light) or using indirect measurements instead. So, the measurement is provided just in relative units in the first case, or the accuracy of the estimate in the second case is uncertain without proper direct validation. The Thesis presents a new device, called FluoWat, for passive measurement that allows direct measurement of the fluorescence emission of leaves in vivo under natural conditions in the field with sunlight. And…
Particle identification in ALICE: a Bayesian approach
2016
We present a Bayesian approach to particle identification (PID) within the ALICE experiment. The aim is to more effectively combine the particle identification capabilities of its various detectors. After a brief explanation of the adopted methodology and formalism, the performance of the Bayesian PID approach for charged pions, kaons and protons in the central barrel of ALICE is studied. PID is performed via measurements of specific energy loss ($\mathrm{d}E/\mathrm{d}x$) and time-of-flight. PID efficiencies and misidentification probabilities are extracted and compared with Monte Carlo simulations using high-purity samples of identified particles in the decay channels ${\rm K}^0_S \righta…
Observation and Measurement of Forward Proton Scattering in Association with Lepton Pairs Produced via the Photon Fusion Mechanism at ATLAS
2020
The observation of forward proton scattering in association with lepton pairs (eþe− þ p or μþμ− þ p) produced via photon fusion is presented. The scattered proton is detected by the ATLAS Forward Proton spectrometer, while the leptons are reconstructed by the central ATLAS detector. Proton-proton collision data recorded in 2017 at a center-of-mass energy of ffiffiffi s p ¼ 13 TeV are analyzed, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 14.6 fb−1. A total of 57 (123) candidates in the ee þ p (μμ þ p) final state are selected, allowing the background-only hypothesis to be rejected with a significance exceeding 5 standard deviations in each channel. Proton-tagging techniques are introduced f…
