We develop a theoretical formula of spin Hall torque in the presence of two ferromagnets. While the direction of the conventional spin Hall torque always points to the in-plane direction, the present system enables to manipulate the torque direction acting on one magnetization by changing the direction of another magn…

GaSb/InAs/GaSb layer stacks have been grown on InAs metamorphic substrates (pseudosubstrates) by MOVPE, using nitrogen as major carrier gas. We demonstrate that GaSb growth by nitrogen MOVPE on InAs metamorphic substrates (and on InAs wafers) is possible in a very narrow range of growth parameters. As demonstrators, G…

We experimentally study the mixing of binary granular systems in a horizontal rotating cylinder. When materials have the same size and differ by dynamic angle of repose only, we observe an axial transport of matter that generates transient radial segregation. The system then evolves towards homogeneity. If materials d…

The tunable properties of molecular materials place them among the favorites for a variety of future generation devices. In addition, to maintain the current trend of miniaturization of those devices, a departure from the present top-down production methods may soon be required and self-assembly appears among the most…

Surface confined dehalogenation reactions are versatile bottom-up approaches for the synthesis of carbon-based nanostructures with predefined chemical properties. However, for devices generally requiring low conductivity substrates, potential applications are so far severely hampered by the necessity of a metallic sur…

Micro-Laue diffraction and simultaneous rainbow-filtered micro-diffraction were used to measure accurately the full strain tensor and the lattice orientation distribution at the sub-micron scale in highly strained, suspended Ge micro-devices. A numerical approach to obtain the full strain tensor from the deviatoric st…

Germanium is a strong candidate as a laser source for silicon photonics. It is widely accepted that the band structure of germanium can be altered by tensile strain so as to reduce the energy difference between its direct and indirect band gaps. However, the conventional deformation potential model most widely adopted…

Atomically thin transitional metal ditellurides like WTe2 and MoTe2 have triggered tremendous research interests because of their intrinsic nontrivial band structure. They are also predicted to be 2D topological insulators and type-II Weyl semimetals. However, most of the studies on ditelluride atomic layers so far re…

A reaction mechanism is proposed for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane on a Pt/CNT catalyst. A combination of thermodynamic analysis and FTIR measurement reveals that B‐containing byproducts are mainly in the form of an NH 4 B(OH) 4 ‐B(OH) 3 mixture rather than NH 4 BO 2 reported previously. The revised mai…

Using global particle-swarm optimization method, we report, for the first time, a BeN2 sheet (h-BeN2) with a graphene-like honeycomb lattice but displaying a direct band gap. Symmetry group analysis indicates that the dipole transition is allowed between the conduction band minimum and the valence band maximum. Althou…

Cycloadditions are among the most efficient chemical processes, combining atom economy, stereospecificity, and the ability to generate molecular complexity in a single step. Aromatic rings would in principle be ideal reaction partners, as they contain, at least from the topological point of view, both olefinic and die…

Density functional theory (DFT) today is the most commonly used electronic-structure method in physics and chemistry. This chapter introduces the basic concepts of DFT and its time-dependent extension (TDDFT), highlights its prominent successes and limitations, and shows how it can be used to model the electronic and…

We propose the general multi-band quasiclassical Eilenberger theory of superconductivity to describe quasiparticle excitations in inhomogeneous systems. With the use of low-energy projection matrix, the $M$-band quasiclassical Eilenberger equations are systematically obtained from $N$-band Gor'kov equations. Here $M$…
