The conductive characteristics of Bi0.9La0.1Fe0.96Mg0.04O3 (BLFM) thin film are investigated at various temperatures and a negative differential resistance (NDR) is observed in the thin film, where a leakage current peak occurs upon application of a downward electric field above 80 °C. The origin of the NDR behavior i…

Excess electron compounds have been proposed to be novel candidates of high-performance nonlinear optical (NLO) materials because of their large static first hyperpolarizabilities (β0). To enhance the stability of an unstable excess electron compound (LiCN⋯Li) with an extremely large β0 value (310196 a.u.), we designe…
We report the efficient one-step synthesis and detailed physicochemical evaluation of novel biocompatible nanosystems useful for cancer therapeutics and diagnostics (theranostics). These systems are the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) carrying the anticancer drug doxorubicin and coated with the cov…
Photoconduction study of quasi-1D conductors allows to distinguish between the single-particle and collective {\it linear} conduction, investigate the effect of screening on collective transport and obtain interesting new details of the electronic energy structure of pure and doped CDW conductors. Here we present resu…
The theory of modal propagation through symmetric and asymmetric 2-D weakly guiding Y-junctions is extended to cover few-mode, multimode, and multiarm Y-junctions. A conceptual approach based on the evolution of modal effective indexes and composite supermodes is used to determine the qualitative functionality of thes…
Thin Fe and Al foils were ramp-compressed over several to tens of ns timescales to study the time-dependence associated with the onset of plastic flow. Peak stress states of 15–200 GPa were achieved through laser ramp-compression where the strain rate was varied, shot-to-shot, between 106 to 108 s−1. Our data combined…
We demonstrate selective excitation of a spin wave mode in a ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As film by picosecond strain pulses. For a certain range of magnetic fields applied in the layer plane only a single frequency is detected for the magnetization precession. We explain this selectivity of spin mode excitation by the neces…
One of the primary objectives in molecular nanospintronics is to manipulate the spin states of organic molecules with a d-electron center, by suitable external means. In this Letter, we demonstrate by first principles density functional calculations, as well as second order perturbation theory, that a strain induced c…
We describe a method to fabricate clean suspended single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistors hosting a single quantum dot ranging in length from a few 10s of nm down to $\approx$ 3 nm. We first align narrow gold bow-tie junctions on top of individual SWCNTs and suspend the devices. We then use a feedback-controll…
Tight binding electrons on a honeycomb lattice are described by an effective Dirac theory at low energies. Lowering symmetry by an alternate ionic potential ($Δ$) generates a single-particle gap in the spectrum. We employ the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) technique, to study the effect of on-site electron correla…
The electron-phonon interaction (EPI) effect in single-walled carbon nanotube is investigated by the nonequilibrium Green’s function approach within the Born approximation. Special attention is paid to the EPI induced Joule heating phenomenon and the thermoelectric properties in both metallic armchair (10, 10) tube an…
We describe, within an ab-initio approach, the stabilization of the tetragonal phase vs. the monoclinic one in Yttrium-doped Zirconia. The process is believed to be influenced from different mechanisms. Indeed we show that there is a delicate balance between the change in electrostatic and kinetic energy and exchange-…
We introduce an effective model for $e_g$ electrons to describe quasi-two-dimensional layered La$_{2-x}$Sr$_{x}$NiO$_4$ nickelates and study it using correlated wave functions on $8 \times 8 $ and $6 \times 6 $ clusters. The effective Hamiltonian includes the kinetic energy, on-site Coulomb interactions for $e_g$ elec…
The predictions of the polar catastrophe scenario to explain the occurrence of a metallic interface in heterostructures of the solid solution(LaAlO$_3$)$_{x}$(SrTiO$_3$)$_{1-x}$ (LASTO:x) grown on (001) SrTiO$_3$ were investigated as a function of film thickness and $x$. The films are insulating for the thinnest layer…
We have studied the magnetic field effect on low frequency dielectric properties of Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3/polyvinylidene fluoride nanocomposite with 22.5% volume fraction of Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3 nanoparticles. A strong magnetodielectric response was observed below 120 K where Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3 nanoparticles show the magnetic phase tr…
Quasiparticle interference induced by cobalt adatoms on the surface of the topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ is studied by scanning tunneling microscopy, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism. It is found that Co atoms are selectively adsorbed on top of Se sites and act a…
The dislocation core field, which comes in addition to the Volterra elastic field, is studied for the $\ensuremath{\langle}111\ensuremath{\rangle}$ screw dislocation in $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-iron. This core field, evidenced and characterized using ab initio calculations, corresponds to a biaxial dilatation, which we m…
Abstract DFT calculations were carried out in order to study the second‐order nonlinear optical (NLO) response of a series of proposed 2D polyoxometalate‐based terpyridine‐substituted compounds. These compounds can be formulated as [Mo 6 O 17 {N 4 C 25 H 16 (X) 2 }{N 4 C 25 H 16 (X) 2 }] 2– (X = H, F, Cl, Br, I, CF 3…
Incorporation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into an increasing number of consumer products has led to concern over the potential ecological impacts of their unintended release to the environment. Dissolution is an important environmental transformation that affects the form and concentration of AgNPs in natural wate…
