Oxidation of pure titanium was carried out at room temperature under different oxygen pressures (10 -8 -10 -6 torr). The kinetics for each pressure was determined. Measured film thicknesses were larger for higher pressures. Deconvolution of XPS spectra showed than TiO was the major oxide present and TiO 2 the minor co…

A set of hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide (a-SiOx:H) films have been fabricated by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Some of the films exhibit strong room-temperature photoluminescence and others do so only after annealing at high temperature. The variation of photoluminescence after different annealing t…

Ordered phases of O on W(110) entail compressive surface stress, the manifestations of which are directly observed for different coverages using scanning tunneling microscopy. Low coverage adsorption results in a gas phase with disordered persistent structures. At higher coverage, ordered phases condense with disorder…

Magnetic polarons in magnetically disordered systems (for brevity, spin-glass polarons) are in one respect very unlike other polarons: Usual polaron hopping at low T proceeds via tunneling, and these polarons do not affect the T dependence of the hopping rate, while the spin-glass polaron tunneling is suppressed by th…

Polystyrene (PS)-polyisoprene (PI) diblock copolymers dissolved in n-decane aggregate into spherical micelles with a PS core and a corona of tethered PI chains. The PI corona may be considered as a brush on the surface of a sphere or as the outer part of a many-armed polymer star. The thermal density fluctuations of t…

The E(V) phase diagram of different crystal structures of indium nitride is studied theoretically, using density functional theory, pseudopotential and full-potential LMTO methods. The high-pressure phase is identified as rocksalt and is found to be semiconducting. The transition pressure is predicted, and the lattice…

Electrochromic niobium oxide thin films were prepared by a radio-frequency magnetron sputtering method. Amorphous Nb2O5 thin films deposited at radio-frequency power 100 W showed the electrochromic behavior: Reduction and oxidation of the films in 0.1 M Na2CO3+0.1 M NaHCO3 buffer solution resulted in coloration and bl…

Experimentally observed stress-strain characteristics in yield deformation of Si, GaAs, and InP crystals are discussed in terms of the dynamic processes of dislocations on a microscopic scale. It is shown that experimental observations are satisfactorily reproduced by calculation on a theoretical model using empirical…

Depolarized hyper Rayleigh scattering of para-nitroaniline (${\mathit{C}}_{2\mathit{v}}$ symmetry) and nitrocalix[4]arene (${\mathit{C}}_{4\mathit{v}}$ symmetry) in solution has been measured. Using linearly and circularly polarized fundamental radiation information about the ratios between the several hyperpolarizabi…

We propose, and verify in the case of a Ge-doped-silica-core optical fiber, a general explanation for the power-law dependencies on dose frequently observed for the concentrations of radiation-induced defect centers in insulating glasses. This insight permits detailed prediction of the postirradiation recovery curves…

The losses associated with the high-field tail region of the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) absorption curve were investigated at 10, 19, 35, and 60 GHz for 0.10–1.75-mm-thick c-plane circular disks of flux-grown single-crystal M-type barium ferrite materials. A conventional high-field effective linewidth analysis of t…

The surface core-level shift of the Mo(110) surface is determined from high-resolution photoemission measurements of the Mo 3d level. The 3d core-level binding energy of the surface atoms is found to be lowered by 333\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}10 meV relative to that of the bulk atoms. This result agrees well with se…

The Nd-Fe-B and Nd-Fe-Co-B magnet powders with the high coercivity (≥10 kOe) were obtained by the hydrogenation-decomposition-desorption-recombination (HDDR) process at temperatures between 800 °C and 900 °C. We studied magnetic properties and microstructures of the Nd-Fe-B systems during the HDDR process. The NdH2 ph…

We study the dynamic process of homogeneous quantum phase slippage in bulk charge-density-wave systems. A topological singularity, namely, a ``vortex shell'' in 3+1 dimensions is proposed as a trial wave function of the saddle-point field. The quantum tunneling rate is roughly \ensuremath{\Gamma}\ensuremath{\sim}exp(-…

We have calculated the valence photoemission and bremsstrahlung isochromat spectra for TiO 2 , Ti 2 O 3 and VO 2 by means of an MO 6 cluster model (M=Ti, V). The result shows that the first ionization state and the lowest affinity state have considerable O 2 p character because of the large hopping matrix element betw…

The atomic structure of small-cross-section (\ensuremath{\approxeq}10 A\r{}), hydrogen-terminated silicon quantum wires is fully relaxed within the local-density approach showing bulklike coordination of the Si atoms.

We use ab initio local-density-approximation methods to study the electronic and geometrical structure of the various C(100) surfaces. The calculated densities of states suggest that the surface states observed for the (2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1) surface are attributable only to the clean C(100)(2\ifmmode\t…
