Recent experiments by Lee et al. [Nature (London) 363, 255 (1997)] show that doping carbon single-wall nanotube (SWNT) ropes with K, Rb, or ${\mathrm{Br}}_{2}$ leads to metallic conductivity, but the structure and properties are not known. We used molecular dynamics to predict structures and properties which should he…

We have used a metal–oxide bilayer Raman scattering technique to study lattice dynamics in SrTiO3 thin films. The SrTiO3 thin films were epitaxially grown on a conducting metal–oxide layer which reflects the exciting laser beam so that it does not enter the LaAlO3 substrate. Raman scattering from the SrTiO3 thin films…

Thirty one layer TiO2/SiO2 optical filters with graded refractive index profiles were fabricated by helicon plasma sputtering at room temperature. Multilayer films were deposited on glass (BK7) and Si (100) substrates simultaneously and sequentially. The measured transmittance spectrum exhibited a reflectance of 99.8%…

We report the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of the manganese(II) phthalocyanine thin films with unique crystal structure and the measurement of their magnetic properties. The epitaxial films were grown on hydrogen-terminated Si(111) substrates. Reflection high energy electron diffraction observations showed that…

Electrothermal poling of soft glasses (soda lime and borosilicate glass) at relatively high currents led to the creation of a second-order optical nonlinearity. The second-harmonic generation efficiency decays in time, and the decay rate can be accelerated by exposure to intense infrared radiation.

Characteristic features in photocurrent (PC) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra are discussed and attributed to main defects in the gap of optical-quality chemical vapor deposited diamond. A shoulder in the PC spectra with an onset at about 2.2 eV is attributed to the single-substitutional nitrogen defe…

The elastic strain field of a dislocation is highly affected by nearby dislocations. The effects of dislocation-dislocation interactions on elastic energy and core structure are analyzed using a new and self-consistent method to apply periodic boundary conditions on unit cells containing dislocations. Local density fu…

A system is glassy when the observation time is much smaller than the equilibration time. A unifying thermodynamic picture of the glassy state is presented. Slow configurational modes are in quasiequilibrium at an effective temperature. It enters thermodynamic relations with the configurational entropy as a conjugate…

We present results on the normal-collective current conversion processes and associated deformation profile for a charge density wave in the sliding state. High resolution x-ray measurements of the satellite positional shift have been performed on ${\mathrm{NbSe}}_{3}$ at 90 K. The shift $q$ has been determined in the…

A study of the liquid crystalline phase transitions in a system of hard-sphere chains is presented. The chains comprise m=7 tangentially bonded hard-sphere segments in a linear conformation (LHSC). The isothermal–isobaric Monte Carlo simulation technique is used to obtain the equation of state of the system both by co…

In the static field limit, the vibrational hyperpolarizability consists of two contributions due to: (1) the shift in the equilibrium geometry (known as nuclear relaxation), and (2) the change in the shape of the potential energy surface (known as curvature). Simple finite field methods have previously been developed…

Zero-order metal diffraction gratings may give remarkably strong absorption of radiation. This absorption is due to the excitation of standing wave coupled surface plasmons in the narrow grating grooves. Theoretical modeling shows that a family of resonances exists, as the grating grooves are deepened, corresponding t…

Fluorinated amorphous carbon (a-CFx) films were studied by high-resolution x-ray absorption, emission, and photoelectron spectroscopy. The composition and local bonding information were obtained and correlated with substrate temperature during deposition. The data suggest that the structure of the a-CFx is mostly of c…
