Partially miscible binary liquids containing silica colloids show equilibrium phase boundaries and critical lines. The phase separation is ternary in nature, and measurements allow construction of the ternary phase prism for colloids dispersed in binary fluid mixtures. Comparison with earlier aggregation studies stron…

Combining the use of a UV storage ring free electron laser and of synchrotron radiation, a time resolved core level spectroscopy study has been performed on photoexcited Si(111)2×1 surfaces with subnanosecond resolution. This enabled us to measure band bending fluctuations, caused by surface carrier dynamics, during t…

Magnetic entropy change of La0.75Ca0.25MnO3 with different particle size has been investigated. Magnetic entropy change ∼4.7 J/kg K larger than that of Gd has been observed at 224 K under a magnetic field of 1.5 T in comparatively big particles. This phenomenon of large magnetic entropy change indicates that the perov…

The dynamics of single bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL) strongly depends on the percentage of inert gas within the bubble. We propose a theory for this dependence, based on a combination of principles from sonochemistry and hydrodynamic stability. The nitrogen and oxygen dissociation and subsequent reaction to water sol…

Direct experimental evidence is presented for the existence of localized excitations on fractal supermolecular structures that may serve as photonic antenna systems. For one dendrimer family the electronic spectra show no redshift with system size, indicating that the excitations are localized at the nodes of the Cayl…

The atomic structure and tunneling spectra of a cleaved surface of a 2H-NbSe 2 single crystal were studied by scanning tunneling microscopy at 4.2 K. Small domains with \(\sqrt{13} \times \sqrt{13}\) modulation were found adjacent to the flat surface with a 3 ×3 intrinsic charge density wave (CDW). The surface atom ar…

Equations of motion which describe the nonlinear optical response of conjugated polyenes using a collective electronic-oscillator representation are derived. Specific signatures of electronic correlations which enter as anharmonicities and scattering between oscillators are predicted in ultrafast resonant four-wave mi…

The effective dielectric function, effective absorption coefficient and effective refractive index for a model of porous silicon (PS) are calculated using the volume and surface averaging method. The model consists of periodic Si wires with different surface coverages. This approach allows to obtain analytical results…

Wurtzite-type semiconductors such as GaN and ZnO exhibit intrinsic electric-field gradients at the nuclear sites due to the hexagonal lattice symmetry. We have determined these field gradients ${\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{ZZ}}$ for all the nuclear sites by a magnetic double-resonance scheme. Shallow donors, which are presen…
