Time-resolved measurements of photoluminescence were carried out on a hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride film prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. When excited with 5.0-eV photons, photoluminescence occurs over a broad spectrum ranging from 1.8 to 3.6 eV. The peak energy of this photoluminescence va…

We present a characterization of lateral silicon pn junction arrays fabricated on a Si(001) surface using a synchrotron-based scanning photoelectron microscope (SPEM). The Si 2p images show energy dependent contrast which varies continuously across the space charge region between regions of different doping. Combined…

We propose a transition state for oxygen in silica. This state is produced by the insertion of an oxygen molecule into the Si--O--Si bond, i.e., it consists of producing a Si--O--O--O--Si bond. This state allows molecular oxygen diffusion in silica without breaking the molecular ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ bond and it is energ…

By solving a set of differential rate equations the precipitation of AgCl clusters in the glass system 30Na2O–70B2O3/AgCl has been modeled. Using a parallel algorithm on a CRAY T3E it was possible to investigate the process of homogeneous nucleation and growth, which starts after an initial quench of the glass melt in…

The defect formation in epitaxial NaCl films (up to 5.6 nm thick) during low-energy (50--1500 eV) electron bombardment has been studied by a combination of low-energy electron diffraction and energy loss spectroscopy. At temperatures below 200 K two types of color center are generated at the surface, showing distinct…

We propose a phase diagram of quasi-low-dimensional type II superconductors in parallel magnetic fields, when antiferromagnetic fluctuations contribute to the pairing interactions. We point out that pairing interactions mediated by antiferromagnetic fluctuations necessarily include both singlet channels and triplet ch…

Organometallic polycondensation gave zinc porphyrin (Por) polymers (e.g., (−Ar−Por-Ar−) n and (−C⋮C−Por-C⋮C−Ar−) n; Ar = arylene) having arylene or aryleneethynylene groups between the zinc porphyrin units. Polymers having long alkyl substituent(s) in the Ar unit were soluble in THF and chloroform, and gave M n and M…

We have experimentally observed that the optical absorption spectra of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films change drastically and reversibly by pressure up to 4.1 GPa. The main absorption feature at 0.68 eV attributed to the interband optical transition in semiconducting nanotubes [chiral $(n,m)$ and zigzag $(…

We study theoretically the collective orbital excitation called the orbital wave in the orbital ordered manganites. The dispersion relation of the orbital wave is strongly correlated with the static spin structure through the coupling between spin and orbital degrees of freedom. As a probe to detect the dispersion rel…

We demonstrate the first three-dimensional simulations of bicontinuous spinodal decomposition of incompressible binary fluid mixtures in a confined geometry. We find that after an initial transient the thickness of a wetting layer L grows with time t as L ∼ t 1/3 by a diffusion process and later as L ∼ t by a hydrodyn…
