The exchange bias (EB) effect was discovered 60 years ago by Meiklejohn and Bean. Meanwhile the EB effect has become an integral part of modern magnetism with implications for basic research and for numerous device applications. The EB effect was the first of its kind which relates to an interface effect between two d…

Inelastic effects in the Coulomb blockade and Kondo regimes of electron transport through molecular junctions are considered within a simple nonequilibrium equation-of-motion (EOM) approach. The scheme is self-consistent, and can qualitatively reproduce the main experimental observations of vibrational features in Cou…

Localized surface plasmons (LSPs) of metallic nanoparticles decay either radiatively or via an electron-hole pair cascade. In this work, the authors have experimentally and theoretically explored the branching ratio of the radiative and nonradiative LSP decay channels for nanodisks of Ag, Au, Pt, and Pd, with diameter…

An effective interatomic interaction potential for SiC is proposed. The potential consists of two-body and three-body covalent interactions. The two-body potential includes steric repulsions due to atomic sizes, Coulomb interactions resulting from charge transfer between atoms, charge-induced dipole-interactions due t…

A new type of fluorescence sensory material has been developed from an alkoxycarbonyl-substituted carbazole-cornered tetracycle. Films fabricated from such materials are shown to be efficient in detecting explosive vapor, probably owing to the extended 1D molecular stacking between the component molecules and intrinsi…

Leakage current characteristics of Pt/Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3/Pt ferroelectric thin-film capacitors were investigated at the temperature range from 273 K to 393 K. It is implied that there are two conduction regions in the capacitors, i.e. ohmic behavior at low voltage (< 0.4 V) and Poole-Frenkel or Schottky emission mechanism…
