The evolution of implanted 2H profiles in single-crystal ZnO was examined as a function of annealing temperature (500–700 °C) by secondary ion mass spectrometry. The as-implanted profiles show a peak concentration of ∼2.7×1019 cm−3 at a depth of ∼0.96 μm for a dose of 1015 cm−2. Subsequent annealing causes outdiffusio…
The composition dependence of magnetic and structural transformations, as well as the temperature and composition dependence of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy, were studied in the martensitic Ni2+xMn1+yGa1+z (x+y+z=0) Heusler alloys. Moving away from the stoichiometric composition, a slight variation, a large reduc…
The dielectric behavior of the high-energy electron irradiated poly(vinylidene fluoride–trifluoroethylene) 68/32 mol % copolymer was characterized in the dose range from 0 to 175 Mrad. It was found that as the dose increases, the copolymer evolves from a normal ferroelectric to a relaxor ferroelectric and then to a si…
Thin films of the semiconducting, monoclinic vanadium dioxide, VO2(M) have been prepared on ordinary glass by two methods: directly by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and by argon-annealing films of the VO2(B) phase deposited by MOCVD. The composition and microstructure of the films have b…
We have carried out first-principles density functional calculations for clusters of the coinage metals containing thirteen atoms (M13, where M=Cu, Ag, or Au). We find that for this geometric “magic number” the low energy isomers are actually disordered, forming almost a continuous distribution as a function of energy.
A single-crystalline ferromagnetic Ni-Mn-Ga shape memory specimen was deformed in the martensitic state by uniaxial compression to a total strain of 2%. The stress-strain curve displays a yield point at 6 MPa followed by jerky flow. After mechanical deformation, magnetomechanical tests in a rotating magnetic field of…
Controlled modification of horseradish peroxidase with an apolar polymer chain (see figure) by cofactor reconstitution leads to giant amphiphiles, which form vesicular aggregates in aqueous solution.
Zinc oxide nanocrystallites down to 1.5 nm in diameter were made by spray combustion of Zn/Si precursors. These crystallites exhibit a quantum size effect: blueshift of light absorption with decreasing crystallite size. X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and nitrogen adsorption showed…
We report on a theoretical study of dc transport coefficients in (Ga,Mn)As diluted magnetic semiconductor ferromagnets that accounts for quasiparticle scattering from ionized Mn2+ acceptors with a local moment S=5/2 and from nonmagnetic compensating defects. In metallic samples Boltzmann transport theory with golden r…
A tris(3-pyridyl)-substituted C3 symmetric subphthalocyanine (SubPc) was dimerized into a M3L2 cage in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of (en)Pd(NO3)2. NMR studies demonstrated the recognition event to be accompanied by chiral self-discrimination between the two enantiomers of the SubPc. Moreover, the specific…
We analize electrical conductivity controlled by hopping of bound spin polarons in disordered solids with wide distributions of electron energies and polaron shifts (barriers). By means of percolation theory and Monte Carlo simulations we have shown that in such materials at low temperatures, when hopping occurs in th…
I calculate the quantum states for He atom in the potential of an external groove of the single-wall carbon nanotube bundle. The calculated ground-state energy is found to be in fair agreement with the experimental estimate which suggests that the outer groove site is a preferential site for the adsorption of He gas i…
It is shown that in polar geometry and normal incidence the 2x2 matrix technique - as discussed in detail in a preceeding paper [Phys. Rev. B 65, 144448 (2002)] - accounts correctly for multiple reflections and optical interferences, and reduces only in the case of a periodic sequence of identical layers to the Fresne…
We have examined polycrystalline MgB2 by electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and density of state calculations. In particular, we have studied two different crystal orientations, [110] and [001] with respect to the incident electron beam direction, and found significant changes in the near-edge fine-structure of…
We study spin-dependent interband resonant tunneling in double-barrier InAs/AlSb/ GaMnSb heterostructures. We demonstrate that these structures can be used as spin filters utilizing spin-selective tunneling of electrons through the light-hole resonant channel. High densities of the spin polarized electrons injected in…
Surface effects on the electronic energy loss of charged particles entering a metal surface are investigated within linear-response theory, in the framework of time-dependent density functional theory. Interesting phenomena occur in the loss spectra originated by the boundary (bregenzung) effect, which is as a consequ…
A discrete model for the sintering of polydisperse, inhomogeneous arrays of cylinders is presented with empirical contact force-laws, taking into account plastic deformations, cohesion, temperature dependence (melting), and long-time effects. Samples are prepared under constant isotropic load, and are sintered for dif…
We report temperature and field dependent measurements of the magnetic susceptibility, specific heat and resistivity of sintered YbB2 pellets, prepared via two distinct reaction routes, utilizing different temperatures, pressures and sintering times. Sample behavior is affected by the preparation procedure, as a conse…
In this paper, a recently developed analytical equation of state (EOS) is used to investigate the bulk modulus of compressed liquid cesium and to locate common compression factor and the bulk modulus quiescence point(s). This EOS is applied quick well to Na and Rb far from Tc. Bulk modulus of liquid cesium have two qu…
Attractive alternatives to conventional contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging applications are the paramagnetic chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) agents based on saturation transfer (ST) to the solvent water resonance. The ratio of ST effects obtained upon irradiating Ln-coordinated water and amide…
