By performing molecular dynamics simulations we have generated several forms of high density amorphous (HDA) water (ρ⩾1.1 g/cm3), either by pressurizing cubic ice or by quenching liquid water maintained under pressure. It is shown that the temperature of amorphization is a key variable in understanding the thermodynam…

We report on the characteristics of SiO2/n-GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structures with β-Ga2O3 interlayers. β-Ga2O3 15 nm thick was grown by dry oxidation at 800 °C for 6 h, and 100-nm-thick SiO2 was then deposited by sputtering. Capacitance–voltage measurements show a low interface trap density of ∼3.9×1010 e…

We have achieved the size separation of DNA molecules on a biochip using an anodic porous alumina as a separation matrix in electrophoresis. The bottom of the microfluid channel on the chip was made of a porous alumina membrane that has uniform nanoscale pores on its surface. Since smaller molecules are much more freq…

Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin-film waveguides with ridge structures have been fabricated on n-type (100) silicon substrates. The deposition of high-crystal-quality ZnO thin films on the lattice-mismatched silicon substrate was achieved by using the filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique. A ridge structure is defined on the Zn…

Specific heats measurements and Ru-NMR studies have been carried out for Bi3Ru3O11 and La4Ru6O19, which commonly have three-dimensional linkages of edge-sharing pairs of RuO6 octahedra. The Knight shifts, the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rates 1/T1 and the electronic specific heats Cel of these systems exhibit anom…

We discuss the influence of a uniform current, $\vec{j} $, on the magnetization dynamics of a ferromagnetic metal. We find that the magnon energy $ε(\vec{q})$ has a current-induced contribution proportional to $\vec{q}\cdot \vec{\cal J}$, where $\vec{\cal J}$ is the spin-current, and predict that collective dynamics w…

Two-dimensional micrometer-sized single-crystalline ZnO thin nanosheets were achieved on a large scale, in which Zn thin nanosheets (precursor) were first grown via a thermal decomposition and reduction of the starting ZnS powder, and then converted to the ZnO nanosheets via a simple oxidation process. The ZnO nanoshe…
