We have investigated the magnetic and electrical resistance behaviour of Ca$_{3-x}$Y$_x$LiRuO$_6$. The parent compound exhibits magnetic ordering from Ru sublattice at a rather high temperature, 113 K. Though the paramagnetic Curie temperature ($θ$$_p$) is negative indicative of antiferromagnetic ordering, the large m…
We present a detailed comparison of the structural predictions of the effective many-body Brenner potential with those of ab-initio studies for known reconstructions of diamond (100) and (111) surfaces. These results suggest high reliability of the Brenner potential for dealing with carbon-based structures where diffe…
We have used an eight band model to investigate the electronic structures and to calculate the optical matrix elements of InAs-GaSb broken gap semiconductor heterostructures. The unusual hybridization of the conduction band states in InAs layers with the valence band states in GaSb layers has been analyzed in details.…
The density of an atom in a state of well-defined angular momentum has a specific finite spherical harmonic content, without and with interactions. Approximate single-particle schemes, such as the Hartree, Hartree-Fock, and Local Density Approximations, generally violate this feature. We analyze, by means of perturbat…
(withdrawn)AC resistance of melt-spun granular magnetic Cu85Co15 ribbons was measured as a function of temperature in the range 5-300 K, magnetic field Hdc in the range -60 kOe to 60 kOe, and frequency in the range 1-1000 Hz. A sharp peak of zero-field resistance, which scales with frequency, and an associated isotrop…
A method for measuring the asymmetry parameter gamma arising from dipole-quadrupole interference in core-level photoemission is proposed which is based on condensed thin films and exploits the influence of this asymmetry in photoemission monitoring of x-ray standing wave field absorption. The high density of material…
We conduct an experimental study of the dependence of single bubble sonoluminescence intensity on the concentration of various alcohols. The light intensity is reduced by one-half at a molar fraction of ethanol of approximately 2.5x10(-5); butanol achieves the same reduction at a concentration 10 times smaller. We acc…
The in situ observation of thermal alteration of photoinduced optical anisotropy of ultrathin films of polymethacrylates having p-cyanoazobenzene side chains exhibiting amorphous, crystalline, and liquid-crystalline phases was performed by means of temperature scanning ellipsometry. Whereas photogenerated optical anis…
Magnetic susceptibility of partially aligned multiwalled carbon nanotubes has been studied using superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry. Partial alignment of multiwalled nanotubes was produced by uniaxially straining composites of carbon nanotubes embedded in polymer matrices. The degree of alignment…
We have investigated the dynamic formation of silicon nanoparticles after pulsed-laser ablation of a silicon target into argon gas, in order to fabricate the nanoparticles that exhibit visible photoluminescence with higher efficiency. The nanoparticles growing in argon gas were detected by measuring plasma emission re…
A series of phenylbithiophene stilbenes and phenyltetraenes were synthesized and their first-order molecular hyperpolarizabilities determined. Optical nonlinearities up to μβo=9300×10−69 C m5/V were measured at 1907 nm. We show that intermolecular interactions have a large influence on the optical nonlinearity of the…
A micrometer-sized spherical microcavity, the photonic dot, is made from semiconductor nanocrystals, the quantum dots. The coupling of electronic and photonic states is demonstrated for a single photonic dot by the observation of whispering gallery modes in the spectrum of spontaneous emission of the embedded CdSe qua…
High-quality lead zirconate titanate films (PZT) have been grown on yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO) bottom electrode by domain epitaxy where integral multiples of lattice constants match across the interface. The YBCO films were epitaxially fabricated on Si (100) by introducing epilayer geometry of strontium titana…
We conduct a theoretical study of the temperature dependence of the spin polarization ( P) and the magnetoresistance (MR) ratio using the double exchange (DE) model for ferromagnetic tunnel junctions with half-metallic systems. It is shown that the strong exchange coupling in the DE model plays an important role in th…
Silicon (Si) nanocrystallites have been synthesized using pulsed-laser ablation in inert background gases, for studying the structures and optical properties as one of the quantum confinement effects. We extracted a process condition where well-dispersed Si nanocrystallites devoid of droplets and debris are prepared,…
Squashing brings circumferentially separated areas of a carbon nanotube into close proximity, drastically altering the low-energy electronic properties and (in some cases) reversing standard rules for metallic versus semiconducting behavior. Such a deformation mode, not requiring motion of tube ends, may be useful for…
We here study electronic structure and magnetic properties of disordered CoPd and CoPt alloys using Augmented Space Recursion technique coupled with the tight-binding linearized muffin tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method. Effect of short range ordering present in disordered phase of alloys on electronic and magnetic properti…
We present calculations of the one- and two-particle excitations in silicon nanocrystals. The one-particle properties are handled in the GW approximation, and the excitonic gap is obtained from the Bethe-Salpeter equation. We develop a tight binding version of these methods to treat clusters up to 275 atoms. The self-…
A theory of scattering by charged dislocation lines in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is developed. The theory is directed towards understanding transport in AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMT), which have a large number of line dislocations piercing through the 2DEG. The scattering time due to…
The full set of partial structure factors for the prototypical network glass GeSe2 was measured using the method of isotopic substitution in neutron diffraction. The basic building block of the network is the Ge(Se(1/2))(4) tetrahedron in which 34(5)% of the Ge reside in edge-sharing configurations. The intrinsic chem…
