The off-centering of the Ti atom in SrTiO3 is discussed by calculating the resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at the Ti K absorption edge. The present TiO6 cluster model calculation shows that the Ti K RIXS is sensitive to the local symmetry at the Ti site. When the Ti atom is displaced from the center of the…

Abstract We investigated the effect of device thickness on the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of thin-film GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which were grown on Si substrates and transferred to other Si substrates with reduced film thickness. It was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence measurement…

We evaluated the filtration performance of microporous metal membranes fabricated by the rolling process. Metal wire meshes were rolled with thickness reduction ratios of 10, 20, and 30%. The pore size of the metal wire mesh membrane decreased with increasing rolling ratio, whereas the removal efficiency of the suspen…

For a graph G, let and L(G) denote the complement graph and the line graph of G, and let denote the jump graph of G. It is well-known that κ (G) ≤ λ(G) ≤ δ (G). A graph G is called maximally edge connected if G has edge connectivity of its minimum degree and is called super-(edge-)connected if for every minimum vertex…

The temperature dependent susceptibility and specific heat of spinel compound CdV2O4 were investigated. The structural transition accompanied with orbital order appearing at 89.6 K is confirmed to be a first order transition, while the magnetic transitions at 30.2 K is revealed to be a second order one. For the parama…

We propose a compact polarization diversity optical circuit using silica waveguides and photonic crystal waveplates. By setting these circuits at the front and rear of the silicon optical devices, the polarization dependence of the silicon devices can be suppressed. Photonic crystals can be produced artificially using…

The synthesis of new zinc porphyrin oligomers linked by a triazole bridge was carried out via "click" reaction. A split in the porphyrin oligomer B-band was observed. It was considered as evidence of exciton-excitonic coupling. The relaxation of excited states in Q-band porphyrin oligomers was studied by the femtoseco…
