Within the one-dimensional tight-binding minibands and on-site Coloumbic interaction approximation, the absorption spectrum and coherent wavepacket time evolution in an optically excited semiconductor superlattice driven by dc-ac electric fields are investigated using the semiconductor Bloch equations. The dominating…
The magnetization at low temperatures for Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 and Nd0.5Ca0.5MnO3 samples showed a rapid increase with decreasing temperatures, contrary to a La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 sample. Specific heat measurement at low temperatures showed a Schottky-like anomaly for the first two samples. However, there is not a straight forward…
The accurate charge density of MgB2 was observed at room temperature(R.T.) and 15K by the MEM(Maximum Entropy Method)/Rietveld analysis using synchrotron radiation powder data. The obtained charge density clearly revealed the covalent bonding feature of boron forming the 2D honeycomb network in the basal plane, on the…
We perform high resolution X-ray diffraction on GaMnAs mixed crystals as well as on GaMnAs/GaAs and GaAs/MnAs superlattices for samples grown by low temperature molecular beam epitaxy under different growth conditions. Although all samples are of high crystalline quality and show narrow rocking curve widths and pronou…
Oxidation of SiC produces SiO2 while CO is released. A `reoxidation' step at lower temperatures is, however, necessary to produce high-quality SiO2. This step is believed to cleanse the oxide of residual C without further oxidation of the SiC substrate. We report first-principles calculations that describe the nucleat…
A core-softened model of a glass forming fluid is numerically studied in the limit of very low temperatures. The model shows two qualitatively different behaviors depending on the strength of the attraction between particles. For no or low attraction, the changes of density as a function of pressure are smooth, althou…
Specimens of tobermorite 11Å from Wessels mine, South Africa, an 'anomalous' tobermorite, and from Bašcenov, Urals, Russia, a 'normal' tobermorite, have been studied through X-ray diffraction. Their structural disorder, evidenced by the diffuseness of the reflections with k odd, has been dealt with through an OD app…
Techniques from graph theory are applied to analyze the bond networks in proteins and identify the flexible and rigid regions. The bond network consists of distance constraints defined by the covalent and hydrogen bonds and salt bridges in the protein, identified by geometric and energetic criteria. We use an algorith…
Abstract ZrB2-SiC composites are considered a class of promising materials for aerospace applications such as nose and leading edges of re-entry vehicles. Results on such materials obtained by hot isostatic pressing have confirmed their high resistance to the oxidation at temperature up to 2000°C. Ongoing work has sho…
Fe3O4-Nanopartikel, die beschichtet sind mit 2-Carboxyterthiophen (TTP-COOH), ordnen sich über π-π-Wechselwirkungen zu einheitlichen Mikrokügelchen an (siehe schematische Darstellung). Die Wechselwirkung zwischen den Partikeln ist relativ schwach: Durch Ultraschall lassen sich die Aggregate in monodisperse Nanopartike…
Epoxy and glass matrix Terfenol-D composites have been produced by using a cold and hot compression-molding technique, respectively. The static and dynamic magnetic and magnetomechanical properties of samples with a volume fraction Vf in the range of 10% to 82% have been investigated as functions of bias field, freque…
Luminescence due to the radiative recombination of localized biexcitons has been observed at low temperature (5 K) in ZnO/Zn0.74Mg0.26O multiquantum wells grown by laser-molecular-beam epilaxy on a lattice-matched ScAlMgO4 substrate (0001). The emission components due to the recombination of localized excitons and bie…
Temperature dependent dielectric constant measurements have been performed on 〈001〉 oriented 0.7 Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.3 PbTiO3 crystals. These investigations have revealed an irreversible secondary transformation between a normal ferroelectric state and a relaxor ferroelectric state with increasing temperature. The resu…
Mg-doped Ba0.96Ca0.04Ti0.84Zr0.16O3 (BCTZ) thin films have been proposed as a promising material for microelectronic device applications based on high dielectric materials. Perovskite polycrystalline Mg-doped BCTZ thin films were fabricated on a Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by metalorganic decomposition method. Dielectric…
The electronic structure of the charge density wave (CDW) bronze (PO2)(4)(WO3)(2m), m = 4, is determined using ab initio density functional theory. The calculation shows that the Fermi surface (FS) consists in the superposition of three one-dimensional FS's associated with three types of chains. The q dependence of th…
We propose a simple semiphenomenological model to describe the dynamics of polymer melt intercalation in the gallery between the adjacent clay sheets in polymer-clay nanocomposites. Within this model, the intercalation process is driven by the motion of localized excitations ("kinks") which open up the tip between the…
Boron carbon nitride (BCN) films have been grown by B4C evaporation with concurrent N2+ ion assistance, and have been characterized by x-ray absorption near edge (XANES) spectroscopy. Upon the nitrogen insertion, the film structure evolves from BxC-like to h-BN-like. The hexagonal structure corresponds to a true terna…
The resistivity of La0.82Ca0.18MnO3 single crystal has been investigated as a function of external magnetic field and separately under an applied current flow. The measurements were carried out at various temperatures below and above the ferromagnetic transition temperature TC. It has been found that the dynamic elect…
We present a framework coupling continuum elasto-viscoplasticity with three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics. In this approach, the elastic response is governed by the classical Hooke’s law and the viscoplastic behavior is determined by the motion of curved dislocations in a three-dimensional space. The resul…
Titania (TiO2) is employed as a host for the Eu3+ activator ion. Thin films were produced by the sol-gel method on silicon and corning glass substrates and, depending on the nature of the substrate, they present different crystalline structure. The films show an intense red photoluminescence associated with the D05→7F…
