Motivated by recent suggestions --to split the electron-electron interaction into a short-range part, to be treated within the density functional theory, and a long-range part, to be handled by other techniques-- we compute, with a diffusion Monte Carlo method, the ground-state energy of a uniform electron gas with a…
Nanoscale polarization switching in ferroelectric materials by Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) in weak and strong indentation limits is analyzed using exact solutions for electrostatic and coupled electroelastic fields below the tip. It is proposed that the tip-induced domain switching can be mapped on the Landau…
The symmetry properties and the general overview of the superconductivity theory in the itinerant ferromagnets and in materials without space parity are presented. The basic notions of unconventional superconductivity are introduced in broad context of multiband superconductivity which is inherent property of ferromag…
We study the magnetization reversal and electromagnetic radiation due to collective Landau-Zener relaxation in a crystal of molecular magnets. Analytical and numerical solutions for the time dependence of the relaxation process are obtained. The power of the radiation and the total emitted energy are computed as funct…
In-plane thermal conductivity of the thermoelectric layered cobalt oxides has been measured using the Harman method, in which thermal conductivity is obtained from temperature gradient induced by applied current. We have found that the charge reservoir block (the block other than the CoO2 block) dominates the thermal…
We calculate numerically the magnetization direction as function of magnetic field in the Stoner–Wohlfarth theory and are able to reproduce the shape of the low-field magnetoresistance hysteresis observed in manganite grain boundary junctions. Moreover, we show that it is necessary to include biaxial magnetocrystallin…
Polyfunctional gels: Thermoreversible switchable gels with tunable magnetic, optical, and rheological properties are obtained from a modified spin-crossover polymeric precursor and alkane solvents (see picture). The iron triazole polymer which acts as the gelator, undergoes a spin crossover that is accompanied by a ch…
The unique nonuniform deformation characteristic of high-pressure torsion was used to produce nanostructures with systematically varying grain sizes in a copper disk, which allows us to study the grain-size effect on the deformation mechanisms in nanostructured copper using a single sample. The as-processed copper dis…
New relaxor ferroelectric system has been synthesized. BLTN exhibits a smeared maximum of permittivity, characteristic of classic relaxor behaviour, with a peak shift from 185 K at 100 Hz to 300 K at 1 GHz. BNTN undergoes a first order ferroelectric phase transition at 389 K and BLNTN exhibits both a ferroelectric pha…
To describe the nonequilibrium states of a system we introduce a new thermodynamic parameter - the lifetime of a system. The statistical distributions which can be obtained out of the mesoscopic description characterizing the behaviour of a system by specifying the stochastic processes are written down. The expression…
The purpose of the present Comment is to emphasize that the missing link has already been found, and the correlation reported by Pavarini et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 047003 (2001) [http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.87.047003] can be used as a crucial test for theoretical models of HTSC. Perhaps the simplest possi…
In a recently developed theory of the atomic motion in monatomic liquids, the motion is comprised of normal mode vibrations in any of the large number of equivalent random valleys, interspersed with nearly instantaneous transits which carry the system between neighboring valleys. The consequences for the dynamical str…
The structure of titanium films on α- Al2O3(0001) surfaces at room temperature was investigated through in situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The α-phase of titanium was observed to grow with the Ti(0001) || Al2O3(0001), Ti[1100] || Al2O3[2110] and Ti[1010] || Al2O3[1100] epitaxy. For up to 6 nm…
We have combined carbon nanotube field effect transistor devices with a photosensitive polymer to fabricate an optoelectronic memory device. Electric charges are created upon optical illumination by the polymer−nanotube element of the structure, and charge storage occurs in the nanotube transducer. The read and erase…
Aluminum-substituted mesoporous SBA-15 (Al−SBA-15) materials were directly synthesized by a hydrolysis-controlled approach in which the hydrolysis of the silicon precursor (tetraethyl orthosilicate, TEOS) is accelerated by fluoride or by using tetramethyl orthosilicate (TMOS) as silicon precursor rather than TEOS. The…
We have theoretically shown that optical properties of semiconductor nanorods are controlled by 1D excitons. The theory, which takes into account anisotropy of spatial and dielectric confinement, describes size dependence of interband optical transitions and exciton binding energies. We have demonstrated that the fine…
Chemotherapy remains the preferred choice of treatment for prostate cancer but modest drug response and significant toxicity by conventional methods of administration limit their efficacy. In our study, we determined the efficacy of paclitaxel (Tx)-loaded biodegradable nanoparticles (NPs) on tumor inhibition. We hypot…
A model describing the temperature effect of liquid crystal (LC) refractive indices is derived and confirmed by experiment. Two single LC compounds (5CB, 5PCH) and two mixtures (MLC-6241-000 and UCF-35) with different birefringence values were used to validate the model. This model fits all the experimental data well.…
The optical properties of five different nanocrystalline Y2O3:Er3+, Yb3+ samples are presented and discussed. Green and red emission was observed following excitation with 488 nm and attributed to 2H11/2, 4S3/2→4I15/2, and 4F9/2→4I15/2 transitions, respectively. Striking red enhancement was observed in the upconversio…
