Bis-silylated diazenes were designed to prepare wall-functionalized hybrid silicas via the sol–gel process. These precursors enabled the straightforward generation of arylsulfanyl radicals by either photolysis or thermolysis. Their location in the framework of the mesoporous materials was evidenced by spin trapping ex…

Metal-enhanced fluorescence enhancement factors up to 7-fold have been observed for Basic Fuchsin (BF) in close proximity to Zinc nano particulate substrates. In addition, the emission spectra of BF close-to Zinc as compared to a control sample are heavily distorted, particularly on the red-edge, giving systematic tre…

The reaction mechanism of photochemical ring opening and closing transformation was investigated for diarylethene (DAE), which works as a molecular switch and photodevice. Spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory is employed to map the potential energy surfaces and to elucidate the photochemical mechanism of…

Complex dielectric properties of Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 ceramics were investigated in a broad frequency range from 100 Hz up to 90 THz. A broad dielectric anomaly was observed near the temperature of the ferroelectric phase transition (TC1 = 376 K). Below 1 MHz, the anomaly is strongly influenced by conductivity of the samp…

A series of FePt films with different magnetic structures are deposited on Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–PbTiO3 substrates. By applying an electric field across the piezoelectric single crystal substrate, an magnetoelectric effect is observed in FePt/Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–PbTiO3 heterostructure due to the phase transformation between f…

Amorphous oxide semiconductors exhibit large electron mobilities; however, their bandgaps are either too large for solar cells or too small for deep ultraviolet applications depending on the materials system. Herein, we demonstrate that amorphous Cd–Ga–O semiconductors display bandgaps covering the entire 2.5–4.3 eV r…

We report the generation of white light from Ho3+ ion doped CdS nanocrystal ingrained borosilicate glass nanocomposites prepared by the conventional melt-quench method. Near visible 405 nm diode laser excited white light emission is produced by tuning the blue emission from the Ho3+ ions, green band edge, and orange-r…

Compounds containing both heavy main group elements and paramagnetic transition metals form a fertile area for the study of magnetic anisotropy. We pursued the synthesis, characterization, and magnetic measurements of Bi-Se-Cr compounds: a ternary system with no structurally characterized materials. Those efforts led…

Using tapered fibers of As2Se3 chalcogenide glass, we produce photon pairs at telecommunication wavelengths with low pump powers. We found maximum coincidences-to-accidentals ratios of 2.13 ± 0.07 for degenerate pumping with 3.2 μW average power, and 1.33 ± 0.03 for non-degenerate pumping with 1.0 μW and 1.5 μW averag…

We present an investigation of the ferroelectric and magnetic domain walls in multiferroics ${\mathrm{BiFeO}}_{3}$ combining first-principles structural data with a phenomenological modeling of the spin structure. We show that the structural distortions at the ferroelectric walls may lead to peculiar spin arrangements…

Partially chemically modified poly(vinyl alcohol) synthesized via random introduction of a diol-type monomer (mPVA) shows much higher solubility in water than normal homo poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). To clarify the reason for the high solubility of mPVA, we investigated the temperature dependencies of the hydration numb…

Magnetic nanowires (NWs) are promising as material for use in spintronics and as the precursor of permanent magnets because they have unique properties due to their high aspect ratio. The growth of magnetic Fe whiskers was reported in the 1960s, but the diameter was not on a nanoscale level and the growth mechanism wa…
