Embedded germanium nanocrystals (NCs) in a silica host matrix are theoretically analyzed to identify their third-order bound-state nonlinearities. A rigorous atomistic pseudopotential approach is used for determining the electronic structure and the nonlinear optical susceptibilities. This study characterizing the two…

By molecular dynamics simulations, we have studied the enhanced heating process of salty ice and water by the electric field of applied microwaves at 2.5 GHz, and those in the range 2.5-10 GHz for the frequency dependence. We show that water molecules in salty ice are allowed to rotate in response to the microwave ele…

The crystal structure of LnFeAsO$_{1-y}$ (Ln = La, Nd) has been studied by the powder neutron diffraction technique. The superconducting phase diagram of NdFeAsO$_{1-y}$ is established as a function of oxygen content which is determined by Rietveld refinement. The small As-Fe bond length suggests that As and Fe atoms…

The magnetic properties of the single-crystalline orthoferrites TbFeO3 and ErFeO3 were investigated by using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Both ferrites exhibit weak ferromagnetism with the maximum saturated moment being 0.125 and 0.054 mu(B)/Fe for TbFeO3 and ErFeO3, respectively. We confirmed the spin reori…
