The plasmon resonance of Au∕SiO2 multilayered nanodisks was studied using light scattering spectroscopy and numerical calculations. Compared to single layered Au nanodisks, multilayered nanodisks exhibit several distinctive properties including significantly enhanced plasmon resonances and tunable resonance wavelength…
We have investigated experimentally the effects of n-type impurities such as Al and H on the magnetic properties of ZnCoO. The carrier density changes slightly upon the introduction of hydrogen but increases significantly in the case of Al. A measurement of magnetic circular dichroism indicates that, of the two impuri…
Hexagonal BaFe12O19 ferrite films, having thicknesses ranging from 200–500μm, were prepared by a screen printing process followed by sintering heat treatments. Structural, magnetic, and microwave measurements confirmed that the polycrystalline films were suitable for applications in self-biasing microwave devices in t…
The saturation magnetization values (Ms) of α-Fe∕Ba3Co1.8Fe23.6Cr0.6O41 nanocomposites prepared by mechanically alloying α-Fe with Ba3Co1.8Fe23.6Cr0.6O41 powders increased with increasing the concentration of α-Fe. α-Fe∕Ba3Co1.8Fe23.6Cr0.6O41 nanocomposites showed higher coercivity values than α-Fe and Ba3Co1.8Fe23.6C…
The electron transport properties of hybrid ferromagnetic|normal metal structures such as multilayers and spin valves depend on the relative orientation of the magnetization direction of the ferromagnetic elements. Whereas the contrast in the resistance for parallel and antiparallel magnetizations, the so-called Giant…
The experimental fact that relaxation times, tau, of supercooled liquids and polymers are uniquely defined by the quantity TV^g, where T is temperature, V specific volume, and g a material constant, leads to a number of interpretations and predictions concerning the dynamics of vitrification. Herein we examine means t…
We shall discuss magnetization and transport measurements in materials exhibiting a broad first-order transition. The phase transitions would be caused by varying magnetic field as well as by varying temperature, and we concentrate on ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic transitions in magnetic materials. We distinguish…
The thermal deposition and transfer Printing method had been used to produce pentacene thin-films on SiO2/Si and plastic substrates (PMMA and PVP), respectively. X-ray diffraction patterns of pentacene thin films showed reflections associated with highly ordered polycrystalline films and a coexistence of two polymorph…
Using first-principles density functional calculations, we investigated work functions (WFs) of thin double-walled nanotubes (DWNTs) with outertube diameters ranging from 1 to 1.5 nm. The results indicate that a work function change within this diameter range can be up to 0.5 eV, even for DWNTs with the same outer dia…
Molecular-dynamics simulations of a short-chain polymer melt between two brush-covered surfaces under shear have been performed. The end-grafted polymers which constitute the brush have the same chemical properties as the free chains in the melt and provide a soft deformable substrate. Polymer chains are described by…
High-quality Ni-doped ZnO thin films of single phase with preferred c-axis growth orientation were formed on Si (100) substrates by pulsed-laser deposition at room temperature. The films exhibited room-temperature ferromagnetic behaviors with saturation magnetic moment per Ni atom of 0.37μB,0.26μB,0.25μB and 0.21μB fo…
In the preceding Part II, we derived variational equations for the phonon Fourier amplitudes and for the Fourier amplitudes of the fractional contribution of the electronic bands to the trial variational state. These equations are now solved by means of iterations for each value of the total momentum in order to obtai…
The design, fabrication, and predicted performance of a new type of magnetic scanning probe microscope based on the newly discovered phenomenon of extraordinary magnetoresistance (EMR) is described. It is shown that the new probe should advance the state of the art of both sensitivity and spatial resolution by an orde…
For applications to sensor design, the product nxmu of the electron density n and the mobility mu is a key parameter to be optimized for enhanced device sensitivity. We model the carrier mobility in a two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) layer developed in a delta-doped heterostructure. The subband energy levels, elect…
New sol-gel derived organic/inorganic hybrid single mode waveguides devices have been developed for telecommunication applications in the two near infrared windows at 1310 and 1550 nm. The overall procedure of fabrication of these devices is described and the refractive indices of the guiding, the buffer and the prote…
We have shown that bilinear conformal mapping can be used to transform 4-lead internally shunted EMR semiconductor-metal hybrid structures to galvanomagnetically equivalent externally shunted 4 lead structures. The latter are compatible with the fabrication of nanoscale EMR devices while the former are not. Mapped rec…
Low-temperature powder neutron diffraction measurements are performed in the ordered magnetic state of the pyrochlore antiferromagnet Gd2Sn2O7. Symmetry analysis of the diffraction data indicates that this compound has the ground state predicted theoretically for a Heisenberg pyrochlore antiferromagnet with dipolar in…
Single-phase multiferroic Bi1−xNdxFeO3 (x=0–0.15) ceramics are polarized and their piezoelectric and pyroelectric effects are reported. The success in polarizing the ceramics originates from low electrical conductivities controlled predominantly by the Poole-Frenkel conduction mechanism. Limited internal traps due to…
Directed assembly of nanoscale building blocks such as single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) into desired architectures is a major hurdle for a broad range of basic research and technological applications (e.g., electronic devices and sensors). Here we demonstrate a parallel assembly process that allows one to simult…
Li-doped, p-type ZnO thin films have been realized via dc reactive magnetron sputtering. An optimized result with a resistivity of 16.4Ωcm, Hall mobility of 2.65cm2∕Vs, and hole concentration of 1.44×1017cm−3 was achieved, and electrically stable over a month. Hall-effect measurements supported by secondary ion mass s…
