Full electric-field control of spin orientations is one of the key tasks in semiconductor spintronics. We demonstrate that electric field pulses can be utilized for phase-coherent +/- pi spin rotation of optically generated electron spin packets in InGaAs epilayers detected by time-resolved Faraday rotation. Through s…

We unveil the physical origin of the insulating block checkerboard antiferromagnetism in vacancy-ordered K${}_{0.8}$Fe${}_{1.6}$Se${}_{2}$. Our first-principles electronic structure analysis reveals its incompatibility with a simple Fermi-surface nesting or Mott insulator scenario, and suggests the picture of coexisti…

We study the magnetic susceptibility of a layered semiconductor BiTeI with giant Rashba spin splitting both theoretically and experimentally to explore its orbital magnetism. Apart from the core contributions, a large temperature-dependent diamagnetic susceptibility is observed when the Fermi energy E_F is near the cr…

We present a simple method for accessing the elastic properties of microscopic deformable particles. This method is based on measuring the pressure-induced deformation of soft particles as they are forced through a tapered glass microcapillary. It allows us to determine both the compressive and the shear modulus of a…

A spectroscopic study of the amino functionalization of double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) is performed. Original experimental investigations by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy at the C and O K-edges allow one to follow the efficiency of the chemistry during the different steps of covalent fu…

We present an extension of the Allen-Cahn/Cahn-Hilliard system which incorporates a geometrically linear ansatz for the elastic energy of the precipitates. The model contains both the elastic Allen-Cahn system and the elastic Cahn-Hilliard system as special cases and accounts for the microstructures on the microscopic…

Formulas are derived for solutions of many-body wave scattering problems by small particles in the case of acoustically soft, hard, and impedance particles embedded in an inhomogeneous medium. The case of transmission (interface) boundary conditions is also studied in detail. The limiting case is considered, when the…

We demonstrate that a multi-peak FMR spectrum, with lines corresponding to resonance in different ferromagnetic regions of a heterogeneous thin-film sample, can collapse to a single-peak spectrum if there exists a particular field configuration, or the configuration of the external magnetic field with respect to the f…

Magnetic symmetry of all possible plane domain walls in ferro- and ferrimagnets is considered. Magnetic symmetry classes of non 180 degree (including 0 degree) domain walls are obtained. The domain walls degeneracy is investigated. The symmetry classification is applied for research of all possible plane domain walls…

Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) have been incorporated into silica nanopores for the first time. Three MOPs with identical geometries but different ligand functionality (namely tert-butyl, hydroxyl, and sulfonic groups) were employed. A typical mesoporous silica, SBA-15, with a two-dimensional hexagonal pore regularity…

Recently, carbon nanomaterials decorated with Ca atoms as attractors of H 2 molecules have been suggested as room temperature hydrogen storage media because of their large surface area and low weight. However, clustering of Ca atoms was found to significantly reduce the hydrogen storage capacity of Ca–carbon nanostruc…

Solid oxide fuel cells are able to convert fuels, including hydrocarbons, to electricity with an unbeatable efficiency even for small systems. One of the main limitations for long-term utilization is the reduction-oxidation cycling (RedOx cycles) of the nickel-based anodes. This paper will review the effects and param…

In multicomponent metallic glasses, we demonstrate that diffusion and secondary (β) relaxation are closely related. The diffusion motion of the smallest constituting atoms takes place within the temperature and time regimes where the β relaxations are activated, and, in particular, the two processes have similar activ…
