We report on results from high-energy spectroscopic measurements on CeFe2, a system of particular interest due to its anomalous ferromagnetism with an unusually low Curie temperature and small magnetization compared to the other rare earth-iron Laves phase compounds. Our experimental results indicate very strong hybri…

We present exact results for the density profile of the one dimensional array of N hard spheres of diameter D and mass m under gravity g. For a strictly one dimensional system, the liquid-solid transition occurs at zero temperature, because the close-pakced density, $ϕ_c$, is one. However, if we relax this condition s…

We studied the effect of pH on ligand binding in wild-type lactose permease or mutants in the four residues-Glu-269, Arg-302, His-322, and Glu-325-that are the key participants in H(+) translocation and coupling between sugar and H(+) translocation. Although wild-type permease or mutants in Glu-325 and Arg-302 exhibit…

We have measured the heat conduction between 0.05 K and 1.0 K of high purity silicon wafers carrying on their polished faces a variety of thin dielectric films and polycrystalline thin metallic films. Using a Monte Carlo simulation to analyze the conduction measurements, we have determined the phonon mean free path wi…

We have developed a rigorous unidirectional method for designing finite-aperture diffractive optical elements (DOE's) that employs a micro-genetic algorithm (microGA) for global optimization in conjunction with a 2-D Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method for rigorous electromagnetic computation. The theory and i…

A systematic study is reported on the thickness dependence of the electrical resistivity in thin films of the giant magnetoresistance manganite Nd2/3Sr1/3MnO3. We observed a first-order phase transition versus thickness in these films, which is seen as a jump of about 30 K in the metal-to-insulator transition temperat…

This work describes the effects of pyrolysis oven length and erbium precursor on the preparation of discrete erbium-doped silicon nanoparticles. These doped nanoparticles were prepared by the co-pyrolysis of disilane and the volatile complex Er(tmhd)3 (tmhd=2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato). The particle sizes a…

Promising configurations for grating-waveguide structures are presented. In these structures, the grating layer, which is normally adjacent to the waveguide layer, is displaced by means of an intermediate layer, resulting in significant reduction of losses and weaker coupling. This leads to very narrow spectral bandwi…

We report on low-resistance ohmic contacts to the moderately doped n-type ZnO:Al(nd=2×1017 cm−3) obtained using Ti (30 nm)/Au (50 nm) metallization schemes. Annealed Ti/Au contacts exhibit linear current–voltage characteristics, showing that high-quality ohmic contacts are formed. The Ti/Au scheme produces a specific…

Large strain electrostriction in single-crystal ferroelectric materials is investigated. The mode of electrostriction is based on a combined electromechanical loading used to induce cyclic, 90° domain switching.

A mechanical strain field applied to a monodomain cholesteric elastomer will unwind the helical director distribution. There are similarities with the classical problem of an electric field applied to a cholesteric liquid crystal but also differences. Frank elasticity is of minor importance unless the gel is very weak…
