Crystals of KTiOAsO4 were grown by the high temperature solution method and their optical and ionic conductivity properties evaluated. The band edge and IR cutoff were 370 and 4850 nm, respectively. A domain structure prevented efficient frequency conversion in as-grown crystals. The ionic conductivity at 22 °C and 12…

On the surface of a brine-surfactant (AOT) mixture, the long-chain alkanes (N>11) do not spread while the shorter ones (N11) spread leaving a very thin oil film at the surface. The interactions between the oil-water and oil-air interfaces stabilizing the height of this film are a van der Waals attractive potential,…

We show that first-principles electronic structure calculations of silicon wires with diameters up to \ensuremath{\sim}1.5 nm support the idea that quantum confinement and surface effects are responsible for the luminescence in porous silicon. Instead of the indirect gap of crystalline bulk silicon, the band structure…

We have performed first-principles pseudopotential calculations for H-terminated Si wires with thicknesses from 12 to 23 \AA{}, calculating the band gaps and optical matrix elements. Comparison with effective-mass theory shows that the latter is valid for wires wider than 23 \AA{}. We have used our data to analyze the…

The clocklike emission of picosecond pulses of light with a peak power over 30 mW has been observed to originate from a bubble trapped at the velocity node of a resonant sound field in water. The spectrum of this bright sonoluminescence is broadband and our measurements show that if a spectral peak exists, it lies at…

To improve the stability of porous Si (PS) prepared by electrochemical etching, we make use of rapid-thermal oxidation (RTO). During RTO processing, the hydride coverage of the internal surfaces of the pores is replaced by a high-quality oxide while retaining nm-sized Si grains. With increasing process temperature Tox…

A simple density functional theory (DFT) is applied to an analysis of the isotropic, nematic and smectic-A phase transitions in single component systems comprised of hard convex bodies. In the chosen DFT, the exact orientation dependent second virial coefficient is used together with an approximation due to Parsons wh…

It is shown theoretically that the quadrupole relaxation probabilities W 1 and W 2 of 23 Na in the ferroelectric material NaNO 2 , caused by random 180 degrees reorientations of the NO 2 groups associated with the order-disorder transition, should be proportional to (1-S 2 )(1-S)exp( Delta U/kT), where S is the order…

The low-frequency (below the loss peak, or critical frequency, omega c ) conductivity, sigma ( omega ), of the Fermi glass is evaluated in an approximation replacing cluster currents with chain currents. Long chains with relatively low resistance values but large relaxation times make an important contribution to the…

Spectral blue shift of excitonic transition due to quantum confinement in Si0.84Ge0.16/Si strained-layer quantum wells, grown by gas-source Si molecular beam epitaxy, is reported. Intense photoluminescence was observed at elevated temperatures though reduced in intensity due to the thermalization of holes to the Si ba…

Abstract Glycogen phosphorylase catalyses the reversible phosphorylation of glycogen to give glucose-1-phosphate in a reaction mechanism promoted by the 5'-phosphate of the cofactor pyridoxal phosphate. The reaction with the small substrate heptenitol has been probed using Laue diffraction at the Synchrotron Radiation…
