In-homogeneities, impurities, weakness within the insulating material or improper positioning of the electrode across insulator causes uneven electric field distribution into the localized area, which often creates partial discharge (PD) and are common mainly in high voltage power apparatus. After initiation of partia…

We reported the magnetic phase diagram of the Ca 1− x Sr x Co 2 As 2 system by measuring the transport and magnetic properties of the single crystals. Its ground state evolves from A-type antiferromagnetism (AFM) with large anisotropy for CaCo 2 As 2 to ferromagnetism with spins aligned along the c -axis for Ca 0.8 Sr…

The nature of dielectric echoes in amorphous solids at low temperatures is investigated. It is shown that at long delay times the echo amplitude is determined by a small subset of two level systems (TLS) having negligible relaxation and decoherence because of their weak coupling to phonons. The echo decay can then be…
