Pt Schottky diodes were formed on single ZnO nanowires grown by site-selective molecular-beam epitaxy and then transferred to SiO2-coated Si substrates. The diodes exhibit excellent ideality factors of 1.1 at 25 °C and very low (1.5×10−10A, equivalent to 2.35Acm−2, at −10V) reverse currents. The nanowire diodes show a…

Heterogeneous sonochemical method was applied for synthesis of novel superconducting nanocomposites consisting of magnetic (and/or nonmagnetic) nanoparticles embedded into the bulk of ceramic superconductors. In addition to in-situ production of the efficient pinning centers, this synthesis method considerably improve…

This paper reviews the usual techniques for producing YBCO-type single-domains and the microstructure of the as-obtained samples. The problems of seed dissolution and parasite nucleations are discussed in details. Formation of microstructural defects, such as pores and cracks, are examined. An important part of this r…

For two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet we present an analysis of topological coreless excitations having a stripe form. These textures are characterized by singularities at boundaries. A detailed classification of the stripe textures results in a certain analogy with the coreless excitations in $^3He-A$ phase:…

Zinc sulfide is a wide bandgap semiconductor which crystallizes in either the wurtzite modification (a-ZnS), the zincblende modification (b-ZnS) or as one of several similar tetrahedrally coordinated polytypes. In this work, we report a photoluminescence study of different samples of isotopically pure b-ZnS crystals,…

We explain the experimental data on the magnetization of $LaRhIn_5$ recently published by R. G. Goodrich et al. in Phys. Rev.Lett. {\bf 89}, 026401 (2002). We show that the magnetization of a small electron group associated with a band-contact line was detected in that paper. These data provide the first observation o…

We report the synthesis of MnO2−δ microspheres using hydrothermal and conventional chemical reaction methods. The microspheres of MnO2−δ consist of nanowires having a diameter of 20–50nm and a length of 2–8μm. The value of oxygen vacancy δ estimated from x-ray photoelectron spectrum is 0.3. The magnetization versus te…

Abstract Summary: We investigated microcapsules composed of the weak polyelectrolytes poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) assembled on calcium carbonate cores. These capsules are stable in the pH range from 2.5 to 11.5, undergoing reversible swelling in the pH interval from 2.7 to 2.6…

ZnS nanobelts with a pure wurtzite phase have been synthesized by a thermal evaporation method with the assistance of H2S in an Ar atmosphere. Photoluminescence band centered at about 535nm has been observed under excitation in the range of 250–480nm with decay rate as short as 860ps. The origin of this intense photol…

We study (inverse) photoemission from systems with strong coupling of doped carriers to phonons. Using an adiabatic approximation, we develop a method for calculating spectra. This method is particularly simple for systems where the electron-phonon coupling can be neglected in the initial state, e.g., the undoped t-J…

p -type ZnO thin films have been realized by the N–Al co-doping method. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy demonstrated that the N incorporation was enhanced evidently by the presence of Al in ZnO. The lowest room-temperature resistivity was found to be 57.3Ωcm with a Hall mobility of 0.43cm2∕Vs and carrier concentration…

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 has a critical role in bone formation and regeneration. Therefore, the ability to immobilize this molecule in certain matrices may be crucial in bone tissue engineering. Using carbodiimide chemistry, BMP-2 was directly immobilized on silk fibroin films.

Super-hydrophobicity can be achieved on relatively smooth surfaces. Short, wide pillars on slightly rough surfaces are shown to produce super-hydrophobic surfaces (see Figure) where neither the pillars nor the slight roughness suffice alone. This use of two length scales to create super-hydrophobic surfaces directly m…

New data are presented on neutron diffraction in ultrapure bulk supercooled heavy water measured down to 262 K. The data are analysed in terms of the trends observed in the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) parameters, the feature which dominates the measured neutron spectra. The neutron FSDP position, height and wi…
