Organic ligands have the potential to contribute to the reduction potential, or lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy, of semiconductor nanocrystals. Rationally introducing small, strongly binding, electron-donating ligands should enable improvement in the open circuit potential of hybrid organic/inorganic…

We report on the strong influence of Carbon doping on 1/f noise in fully epitaxial Fe/MgO(100)12ML/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions in comparison with undoped junctions with a large density of barrier defects. Carbon influences the relaxation of defects, the reconstruction of the interface and the symmetry transformation…

The elastic, thermodynamic, and electronic properties of fluorite RuO_2 under high pressure are investigated by plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory. The optimized lattice parameters, elastic constants, bulk modulus, and shear modulus are consistent with other theoretical values. The phase transition f…

CoPt or FePt equiatomic alloys order according to the tetragonal L10 structure which favors their strong magnetic anisotropy. Conversely magnetism can influence chemical ordering. We present here {\it ab initio} calculations of the stability of the L10 and L12 structures of Co-Pt alloys in their paramagnetic and ferro…

Similar to carbon, several transition-metal chalcogenides are able to form tubular structures. Here, we present results from systematic theoretical investigations of structural and mechanical properties of MoS 2 and TiS 2 nanotubes in comparison to each other, to carbon nanotubes, and to corresponding experimental res…

It was reported earlier [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 056401 (2011)] that the skutterudite structure compound CoSb$_3$ displays a unique band structure with a topological transition versus a symmetry-preserving sublattice (Sb) displacement very near the structural ground state. The transition is through a massless Dirac-Weyl…

We show that in graphene epitaxially grown on SiC the Drude absorption is transformed into a strong terahertz plasmonic peak due to natural nanoscale inhomogeneities, such as substrate terraces and wrinkles. The excitation of the plasmon modifies dramatically the magneto-optical response and in particular the Faraday…

In the framework of the engineering version of a Local approach to fracture the criterion of a fracture limit of RPV with crack-like flaw is derived. It has been shown that the level of ductile state stability (mechanical stability) of metal ahead of a crack governs the value of critical fluence. On this basis, the ne…

A three-parameter equation of state (EOS) without physically incorrect oscillations is proposed based on the generalized Lennard-Jones (GLJ) potential and the approach in developing linear isotherm regularity (LIR) EOS of Parsafar and Mason [J. Phys. Chem., 1994, 49, 3049]. The proposed (GLIR) EOS can include the LIR…

The EPR parameters g factors and the superhyperfine parameters for the tetrahedral [FeX_4]^- clusters in AgX (X=Cl, Br) are theoretically investigated from the perturbation formulas of these parameters for a 3d^5 ion under tetrahedra by considering both the crystal-field and charge transfer contributions. The related…

The theoretical model of thermodynamics of intermediate state in type I superconductors was proposed by Andreev. It is shown, that in the quantum case, t…

We observed unexpected resonant response in [Fe/Cr]_(10) multilayers epitaxially grown on MgO(100) substrates which exists only when both ac current and dc magnetic field are simultaneously applied. The magnitude of the resonances is determined by the multilayer magnetization proving their intrinsic character. The red…

We present a simple theory explaining the extraordinary features of high-contrast optical gratings in the near-wavelength regime, particularly the very broadband high reflectivity (>99%) and the ultra-high quality factor resonances (Q>10(7)). We present, for the first time, an intuitive explanation for both features u…
