The thermal resistance for conduction normal to diamond layers only a few microns thick, deposited at temperatures of about 500 °C on silicon using microwave-plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (MPACVD) and electron cyclotron resonance enhanced MPACVD, is measured using a specific laser-heating method. A detaile…

PbS/PbTiO3/Si heterostructures were prepared by successive depositions of a PbTiO3 thin film using the sol-gel method and of a PbS thin film using the coprecipitation method on a bulk silicon wafer. The current–voltage characteristic of the heterostructure is of a diode type. The heterostructure is sensitive over a br…

We present results of molecular dynamics simulations that show that the shear-induced ordering of hard spheres is preceded by the apparent decrease to zero (in certain directions) of the anisotropic pair-distribution function (PDF) at contact. This precursor to the ordering is explained on the basis of a careful inter…

Secondary electron (SE) image contrast from p-type silicon has been studied using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Cross-sectional FE-SEM images of boron-doped silicon heterostructures have been compared with atomic concentration and free carrier profiles measured by secondary-ion mass spectroscop…

We report novel odd-even layering effects in freely suspended films of the chiral liquid crystal MHPOBC in its antiferroelectric smectic phase. Films with an odd number of smectic layers are characterized by transverse ferroelectricity (molecular tilt plane perpendicular to applied electric field E), while films with…

Zwischen 2 und 44 g L −1 des Diamids 1 werden nur benötigt, um mit einer großen Vielfalt organischer Lösungsmittel stabile Gele zu erhalten. Der Circulardichroismus der Gele läßt sich auf die Bildung chiraler Aggregate aus 1 zurückführen, die durch Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen und van‐der‐Waals‐Wechselwirkungen zusamme…

Porous GaAs was formed electrochemically on n-type GaAs(100) in a 0.1 M HCl electrolyte. Scanning electron microscopy revealed feature sizes of the porous structure in the micrometer to nanometer range. The optical properties of the porous material were characterized by photoluminescence (PL) measurements at 295 K. Co…

A model for ferroelectric relaxors such as PMN, PSN and PLZT giving a quantitative description of their properties and phase diagrams is proposed within the framework of the random field theory. In this model, the relaxors are considered as systems with random sites and orientations of electric dipoles, lattice vacanc…

A simple globular-shaped liquid (octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, OMCTS) was placed between two solid plates at variable spacings comparable to the size of this molecule and the linear shear viscoelasticity of the confined interfacial film was measured. Strong monotonic increase of the shear relaxation time, elastic modu…

An antiparallel ferroelectric domain in LiNbO3 doped with 5 mol % MgO (MgO:LN) was inverted at room temperature by applying a step-like electric field. The lowest electric field was about one fifth of that for undoped LN, but a high field compared to that for BaTiO3 was found to be necessary from the analysis of the s…

The valence photoemission spectra of alkali metals exhibit multiple plasmon satellite structure. The calculated spectral functions within the GW approximation show only one plasmon satellite at too large binding energy. In this Letter we use the cumulant expansion approach to obtain the spectral functions of Na and Al…

The temperature dependence of infrared absorption spectra of CH and CD on diamond nanocrystal surfaces has been investigated. Phase relaxation was closely examined by analyzing frequency shifts and line broadening in the spectra. Based on the model of Persson and Ryberg [Phys. Rev. B 40, 10 273 (1989)], coupling phono…

The titanium-mediated coupling of NiII and ZnII pyrophaeophorbides results in formation of planar ethenefused bisphaeophorbides 1, M = Ni, Zn. Absorption spectroscopy indicates that the two chlorin units are highly conjugated, and the X-ray crystal structure shows the two phaeophorbide rings to be almost coplanar.
