The perovskite oxide SrFeO 3 has been investigated by high-pressure 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) up to 62 GPa and 56 GPa, respectively. Magnetic ordering occurs below 134 K at 0.1 MPa and below 210 K at 15 GPa. Above 17 GPa, the magnetic ordering temperature increases markedly to abo…

An optimization method was developed for improving the designs of broadband linear polarization converters using a twisted nematic liquid crystal film and two uniaxial compensation films. As compared to the Poincaré Sphere approach, our optimization method takes the material dispersions into consideration and results…

The absorption spectra of the AB- and AA-stacked nanographite ribbons have several prominent peaks. They strongly depend on the edge structure, the ribbon width, the stacking sequence, and the polarization direction. The armchair ribbons quite differ from the zigzag ribbons. The frequency and the number of the absorpt…

The optical properties of quasi-one-dimensional metallic ${\mathrm{LaTiO}}_{3.41}$ are studied for the polarization along the a and b axes. With decreasing temperature modes appear along both directions suggestive for a phase transition. The broadness of these modes along the conducting axis might be due to the coupli…

We report an experimental study on the temperature dependence, from 6 K up to 300 K, of the 4.4 eV emission excited at 7.6 eV via the conversion between two different types of oxygen deficient centers in silica. The photoluminescence undergoes a thermal quenching above 50 K, its amplitude decreasing by a factor of 10,…

Aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) films were deposited on glass substrates at 300°C by reactive mid-frequency (mf, 50 kHz) magnetron sputtering using dual magnetron cathodes with aluminum–zinc alloy targets. In order to keep the very high deposition rate stable in the transition region of the reactive sputtering system,…

Epitaxial ZnO films have been grown on Si (111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using ozone as an oxygen source. An initial deposition of a Zn layer followed by its oxidation produces a superior template for the subsequent ZnO growth. The reflection high-energy electron diffraction measurement suggests that the i…

We have investigated the thermoelectric power of millimeter-long aligned multiwall carbon nanotubes down to a temperature of $T=1.5\mathrm{K},$ and observed an accurate $T\mathrm{ln}T$ dependence at low temperatures. This behavior is possibly originated from the repulsive interaction between the electrons in a disorde…

Organic−inorganic polymer hybrids were synthesized utilizing the host−guest interaction. Cyclodextrins (CDs, α-, β-, γ-CD) could be dispersed in the silica gel matrix at a nanometer level because of the hydrogen-bonding interaction between hydroxyl moieties of CD and residual silanol groups of silica gel. It is known…
