For two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet we present an analysis of topological coreless excitations having a stripe form. These textures are characterized by singularities at boundaries. A detailed classification of the stripe textures results in a certain analogy with the coreless excitations in $^3He-A$ phase:…

Zinc sulfide is a wide bandgap semiconductor which crystallizes in either the wurtzite modification (a-ZnS), the zincblende modification (b-ZnS) or as one of several similar tetrahedrally coordinated polytypes. In this work, we report a photoluminescence study of different samples of isotopically pure b-ZnS crystals,…

We explain the experimental data on the magnetization of $LaRhIn_5$ recently published by R. G. Goodrich et al. in Phys. Rev.Lett. {\bf 89}, 026401 (2002). We show that the magnetization of a small electron group associated with a band-contact line was detected in that paper. These data provide the first observation o…

We report the synthesis of MnO2−δ microspheres using hydrothermal and conventional chemical reaction methods. The microspheres of MnO2−δ consist of nanowires having a diameter of 20–50nm and a length of 2–8μm. The value of oxygen vacancy δ estimated from x-ray photoelectron spectrum is 0.3. The magnetization versus te…

Abstract Summary: We investigated microcapsules composed of the weak polyelectrolytes poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) assembled on calcium carbonate cores. These capsules are stable in the pH range from 2.5 to 11.5, undergoing reversible swelling in the pH interval from 2.7 to 2.6…

ZnS nanobelts with a pure wurtzite phase have been synthesized by a thermal evaporation method with the assistance of H2S in an Ar atmosphere. Photoluminescence band centered at about 535nm has been observed under excitation in the range of 250–480nm with decay rate as short as 860ps. The origin of this intense photol…

We study (inverse) photoemission from systems with strong coupling of doped carriers to phonons. Using an adiabatic approximation, we develop a method for calculating spectra. This method is particularly simple for systems where the electron-phonon coupling can be neglected in the initial state, e.g., the undoped t-J…

Transport properties of a series of poly(3-hexylthiophene) organic field effect transistors with Cr, Cu and Au source/drain electrodes were examined over a broad temperature range. The current-voltage characteristics of the injecting contacts are extracted from the dependence of conductance on channel length. With rea…

The amorphous-to-crystal transition has been studied through in situ resistance measurements in Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films doped by ion implantation with nitrogen or oxygen. The dependence of the electrical resistivity and structure on the annealing temperature and time has been investigated in samples with different dopant…

p -type ZnO thin films have been realized by the N–Al co-doping method. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy demonstrated that the N incorporation was enhanced evidently by the presence of Al in ZnO. The lowest room-temperature resistivity was found to be 57.3Ωcm with a Hall mobility of 0.43cm2∕Vs and carrier concentration…

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 has a critical role in bone formation and regeneration. Therefore, the ability to immobilize this molecule in certain matrices may be crucial in bone tissue engineering. Using carbodiimide chemistry, BMP-2 was directly immobilized on silk fibroin films. Whereas human bone marrow stro…

Glassy carbon is a technologically important material widely used in products such as electrodes and high-temperature crucibles. However, the properties which make glassy carbon so valuable in these applications are poorly understood, since its detailed atomic structure is not known. A model for the structure of glass…

Super-hydrophobicity can be achieved on relatively smooth surfaces. Short, wide pillars on slightly rough surfaces are shown to produce super-hydrophobic surfaces (see Figure) where neither the pillars nor the slight roughness suffice alone. This use of two length scales to create super-hydrophobic surfaces directly m…

New data are presented on neutron diffraction in ultrapure bulk supercooled heavy water measured down to 262 K. The data are analysed in terms of the trends observed in the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) parameters, the feature which dominates the measured neutron spectra. The neutron FSDP position, height and wi…

This paper discusses the differences between the results of various measurements of the effective tensile strength (F c ) of liquids in experiments involving a pulse of tension (‘negative pressure’) created by the reflection of a pressure pulse at a boundary. Using a modified ‘bullet-piston’ (B-P) pulse reflection app…
