Polarization phenomena in ferroelectric materials are frequency-dependent, and the present article describes the use of a fractional derivative for the understanding of these phenomena as well as modeling them as functions of frequency and electric field amplitude. The focus was first directed toward the definition an…

The authors studied the surface optical phonon and A1(LO) in ZnO submicron crystals as well as ZnO single crystals with submicron surface structures by employing ultraviolet Raman scattering. The small variation in Raman frequency of A1(LO), when the growth condition is changed, is mainly caused by the crystal imperfe…

Due to recent nickel price volatility, ferritic stainless steels, having no or very low nickel content, can be very interesting to stainless steels users. Ferritic represents only about 26% of the total stainless steel production nowadays. The paper presents the ferritic stainless steel family: mechanical properties o…

To confirm the feasibility of realizing subterabyte or terabyte optical memories, we evaluated a multilayer read-only disk having 20 information layers. We propose a new disk structure, which is an alternative structure to reduce interlayer crosstalk, optimized by computer simulations. We fabricated multilayer read-on…

Dry thermal oxidation of single‐crystal silicon carbide (6H‐SiC) at 1400°C in low‐water oxygen using an alumina tube furnace initially yields a predominantly vitreous oxide scale. After 28 h, approximately one quarter of the oxide scale's surface becomes crystalline, with disk‐like cristobalite aggregates (radialites)…

We study the effect of electron-electron interactions in the quasiparticle dispersion of a graphene bilayer within the Hartree-Fock-Thomas-Fermi theory by using a four-bands model. We find that the electronic fluid can be described by a non-interacting–like dispersion but with renormalized parameters. We compare our r…

We have prepared GexAsySe1−x−y glasses with mean coordination numbers (MCNs) from 2.2 to 2.86. Tg was found to generally increase with increasing MCN while the glass density showed a maximum at MCN≈2.45 and a minimum at MCN≈2.65. The elastic moduli of the glasses were estimated from the shear and compressional wave ve…

Abstract We report on exquisitely preserved specimens of freshwater siliceous algae belonging to the classes Synurophyceae (scaled chrysophytes) and Bacillariophyceae (diatoms) from middle Eocene lake sediments in Northern Canada. When considered in the context of closest extant relatives, these microfossils present u…

The patterned vertical alignment (PVA) liquid crystal (LC) mode shows a wide viewing angle and a perfect dark state at a normal direction. However, it is inevitable to avoid the formation of disclinations and the movement of defect points during stabilization of LC's reorientation. It is due to fact that the LC direct…
