We present the results of numerical simulations of a $(2+1)$-dimensional fermion field theory based on a recent proposal for a model of graphene consisting of ${N}_{f}$ four-component Dirac fermions moving in the plane and interacting via an instantaneous Coulomb interaction. In the strong-coupling limit we identify a…
Monodisperse spherical hollow nanoparticles of mesoporous silica featuring mesopores with a radial orientation in the silica shell were synthesized via a dual-templating method. Specifically designed polystyrene latexes with anionic or cationic surface charges acted as the core templates, while cetyltrimethylammonium…
We report the synthesis of Tm 3+ /Yb 3+ /Er 3+ -doped Lu 3 Ga 5 O 12 nanocrystals prepared by a simple sol−gel method exhibiting bright white light following excitation with lower energy near-infrared light (λ exc = 980 nm) via an upconversion process. The combination of upconverted blue (from Tm 3+ ), green, and red…
We report the design, fabrication and optical investigation of electrically tunable single quantum dot - photonic crystal defect nanocavities operating in both the weak and strong coupling regimes of the light matter interaction. Unlike previous studies where the dot-cavity spectral detuning was varied by changing the…
We present a combination of ab initio calculations, magnetic Compton scattering and polarized neutron experiments, which elucidate the density distribution of unpaired electrons in the kagome staircase system Co3V2O8. Ab initio wave functions were used to calculate the spin densities in real and momentum space, which…
We investigate vibration modes and their Raman activity of single-walled carbon nanotubes that are bent within their intrinsic elastic limits. By implementing wedge boundary conditions for density-functional-based tight binding, and using nonresonant bond polarization theory, we discover that Raman activity can be ind…
A cell dynamics method for domain separation of diblock copolymers (DBCPs) interacting with nanoparticles (NPs) whose diffusion coefficients depend on chain configuration is proposed for self-assembly of DBCP/NP composites. Increasing NP concentration slows down domain separation, but matching NP diffusion lengths and…
Near ballistic n-type single-walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (SWCNT FETs) have been fabricated with a novel self-aligned gate structure and a channel length of about 120 nm on a SWCNT with a diameter of 1.5 nm. The device shows excellent on- and off-state performance, including high transconductance of…
We demonstrate that optical illumination strongly influences spin transport in n-type GaAs. Specifically, increasing the power density of optical spin pumping results in a significant expansion of the spin diffusion profile. A further means of manipulation is the application of a weak transverse magnetic field, which…
Within investigating the multiple charge spreading generalizing the Bertaut approach, a set of confined spreading functions with a polynomial behaviour, but defined so as to enhance the rate of convergence of Coulomb series even upon a single spreading, is proposed. It is shown that multiple spreading is ultimately ef…
We investigate the structure and mechanical behavior of assemblies of frictionless, nearly rigid equal-sized beads, in the quasistatic limit, by numerical simulation. Three different loading paths are explored: triaxial compression, triaxial extension and simple shear. Generalizing recent results [1], we show that the…
We report the first measurements of effects of large current densities on current-perpendicular-to-plane magnetoresistance (MR) of magnetic multilayers containing two antiferromagnetic layers separated by a non-magnetic layer. These measurements were intended to search for a recently predicted antiferromagnetic giant…
Assemblies of magnetic nanoparticles exhibit interesting physical properties arising from the competition of intraparticle dynamics and interparticle interactions. In ordered arrays of magnetic nanoparticles magnetostatic interparticle interactions introduce collective dynamics acting competitively to random anisotrop…
Based on the concept of complementary media, we propose a novel design which can enhance the electromagnetic wave scattering cross section of an object so that it looks like a scatterer bigger than the scale of the device. Such a "superscatterer" is realized by coating a negative refractive material shell on a perfect…
We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to investigate the electronic properties of the newly discovered iron-arsenic superconductor Ba_(1-x)K_(x)Fe_(2)As_(2) and nonsuperconducting BaFe_(2)As_(2). Our study indicates that the Fermi surface of the undoped, parent compound BaFe_(2)As_(2) consists of hole pocke…
Room-temperature thermoelectric properties of n-type crystalline Si with periodically arranged nanometer-sized pores are computed using a combination of classical molecular dynamics for lattice thermal conductivity and ab initio density functional theory for electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and electronic…
Based on the effective four-band model we analyze the spin response in the normal and superconducting states of the Fe-pnictide superconductors. While the normal-state spin excitations are dominated by the continuum of the interorbital antiferromagnetic fluctuations and the intraband spin-density wave fluctuations, th…
The fundamental chemical, redox, electrochemical, photoelectrochemical, optical and optoelectronic features of carbon nanotubes are surveyed with particular emphasis on the most relevant applications as electron donor/electron acceptor or as electron conductor/hole conductor materials, in solutions and in the solid st…
The transferring and identification of single- and few- layer graphene sheets from SiO 2 /Si substrates to other types of substrates is presented. Features across large areas (∼cm 2 ) having single and few-layer graphene flakes, obtained by the microcleaving of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), can be transfe…
Abstract Raman scattering measurements have been performed in Ga 1– x Mn x As crystals prepared by Mn ions implantation, deposition, and post‐annealing. The Raman spectrum measured from the implanted surface of the sample shows some weak phonon modes in addition to GaAs‐like phonon modes, where the GaAs‐like LO and TO…
