Quadratic-response theory is shown to provide a conceptually simple but accurate approximation for the self-consistent one-electron potential of semiconductor nanostructures. Numerical examples are presented for GaAs/AlAs and InGaAs/InP (001) superlattices using the local-density approximation to density-functional th…

X-ray absorption spectroscopy was used to study the microscopic origin of conductance and resistive switching in chromium doped strontium titanate (Cr:SrTiO3). Differences in the x-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) at the Cr K-edge indicate that the valence of Cr changes from 3+ to 4+ underneath the anode…

The influence of ordered regions (micro crystallites and aggregates) in the other wise disordered polymer host matrix on field and temperature dependence of mobility (μ) has been simulated. Increase in concentration of ordered regions leads to increase in magnitude of mobility and in high field regime the saturation o…

Transition-metal oxides exhibiting a bistable resistance state are attractive for non-volatile memory applications. The relevance of oxygen vacancies (VO) for the resistance-change memory was investigated with x-ray fluorescence, infrared microscopy, and x-ray absorption spectroscopy using Cr-doped SrTiO3 as example.…

In this Account, we discuss the usefulness of the sol-gel process in the synthesis of materials comprising nanoscale architectures. We describe the processing of semiconducting, metallic, ferroelectric, or scintillating nanoparticles in various oxide matrices. We also discuss the synthesis of some nanoporous oxides an…

X-ray diffraction data on liquids and disordered solids often provide useful complementary structural information to neutron diffraction data. Interpretation of the x-ray diffraction pattern, which is produced by scattering from the atomic electrons rather than from the atomic nuclei as in the case of neutron diffract…

A new approach to the reverse Monte Carlo analysis of total scattering data from polycrystalline materials is presented. The essential new feature is the incorporation of an explicit analysis of the Bragg peaks using a profile refinement, taking account of the instrument resolution function. Other new features includi…

PDFfit2 is a program as well as a library for real-space refinement of crystal structures. It is capable of fitting a theoretical three-dimensional (3D) structure to atomic pair distribution function data and is ideal for nanoscale investigations. The fit system accounts for lattice constants, atomic positions and ani…

New Aurivillius phases in the Bi–Ag–Ti–O system were investigated by means of a solid‐state reaction and X‐ray diffraction. We found that the oxygen partial pressure has a significant influence on the synthesis of the Aurivillius phases. The mixed‐layer Aurivillius phase Ag 0.5 Bi 8.5 Ti 7 O 27 was observed after firi…
