Adatom incorporation into the ``faceted'' steps bordering the 2D nanoislands is analyzed. The step permeability and incorporation coefficients are derived for some typical growth situations. It is shown that the step consisting of equivalent straight segments can be permeable even in the case of fast egde migration if…
The characteristics of a hybrid p-n junction consisting of the hole-conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene)-poly(styrene-sulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS) and n-ZnO nanorods grown on an n-GaN layer on sapphire are reported. Spin coating of polystyrene was used to electrically isolate neighboring nanorods and a top l…
The work discusses specifics of phase transitions for metastable states of substances. The objects of condensed media physics are primarily equilibrium states of substances with metastable phases viewed as an exception, while the overwhelming majority of organic substances investigated in chemistry are metastable. It…
We describe a new experimental technique to investigate coupling effects between different layers or modes in ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). Dual FMR frequencies are excited (2-8 GHz) simultaneously and detected selectively in a broadband RF circuit, using lock-in amplifier detection at separate modulation frequencies.
We present a detailed study of the dielectric and charge transport properties of the antiferromagnetic cubic spinel HgCr2S4. Similar to the findings in ferromagnetic CdCr2S4, the dielectric constant of HgCr2S4 becomes strongly enhanced in the region below 60-80 K, which can be ascribed to polar relaxational dynamics t…
In conventional micromagnetism magnetic domain configurations are calculated based on a continuum theory for the magnetization which is assumed to be of constant length in time and space. Dynamics is usually described with the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation the stochastic variant of which includes finite tempe…
We have carried out a computational study of the inelastic electron tunneling spectrum (IETS) of the two vibrational modes of a single hydrogen atom on a Cu(100) surface in a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) junction. This study addresses key issues about vibrational assignment and line shape of observed peaks in I…
We consider two sequential models of deposition and aggregation for particles. The first model (No Diffusion) simulates surface diffusion through a deterministic capture area, while the second (Sequential Diffusion) allows the atoms to diffuse up to \ell steps. Therefore the second model incorporates more fluctuations…
The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical safety of intravenous gadolinium-based contrast media used in patients who underwent MRI at a single institution. Acute adverse reactions to intravenous gadolinium-based contrast media used for MRI at the Princess Margaret Hospital, Hong Kong, SAR, from January…
Contracting porphyrins: An important step on the way to the as-yet unrealized contracted porphyrin, the so-called subporphyrin, is a tribenzosubporphyrin (see structure). The new system, which is closely related to boronsubphthalocyanines, comprises a 14-π-electron aromatic core and adopts a nonplanar bowl-shaped conf…
We report a breakthrough in fabricating ZnO homojunction light-emitting diode by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Using NO plasma, we are able to grow p-type ZnO thin films on n-type bulk ZnO substrates. The as-grown films on glass substrates show hole concentration of 1016–1017cm−3 and mobility of 1–10cm2V−1s…
The present study describes a stabilization of single quantum dot (QD) micelles by hydrophobic silica precursors and an extension of the silica layer to form a silica shell around the micelle. The obtained product consists of up to 92% of single nanocrystals (CdSe, CdSe/ZnS, or CdSe/ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots) in the silic…
The course of aniline oxidation with ammonium peroxydisulfate in aqueous solutions has been investigated. The reaction was terminated at various times and the intermediates collected. Besides the precipitates, the films deposited in situ on silicon windows have also been studied. The kinetic course of polymerization i…
The photoresponse in the electrical conductivity of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) film is dramatically enhanced when the nanotube film is suspended in vacuum. We show here that the change in conductivity is bolometric (caused by heating of the SWNT network). Electron-phonon interactions lead to ultrafast rela…
We investigated the Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) spectrum of ethephone (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid). We observed significant signals in the ordinary Raman spectrum for solid-state ethephone as well as when it was adsorbed on a colloidal silver surface, strong vibrational signals were obtained at a very…
Inelastic neutron scattering is used to study excited spin multiplets and low-energy phonons in the ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{8}$ nanomagnet. The energies of the three lowest-lying excited multiplets are determined. In addition, we find weakly dispersive optical phonons with energies lower than the anisotropy splitting of the g…
Abstract In this work, the adsorption behavior at the silver/toluene and alumina/toluene interface of polystyrene–polyethylene oxide (PS‐PEO) diblock copolymers of various molecular weights was investigated by implementation of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique. This was accomplished under a careful choice…
Photonic antenna: Ru-based stopcocks are electrostatically bound to the negatively charged one-dimensional channels of zeolite L crystals (see figure). The authors show that the quenching of the luminescence of the stopcock molecule is much weaker when it is bound to zeolite L.
ZnO–SnO 2 films were deposited onto glass substrates by filtered vacuum arc deposition. The source was equipped with a 70 at% Zn and 30 at% Sn cathode that was the source of Zn and Sn ion beam. Arc current was 200–300 A. The oxygen background pressure was 4–8 mTorr. The deposition time was 60 or 120 s, resulting in fi…
A study of the temperature dependence of the electron beam induced deposition (EBID) of tungsten was carried out in a temperature range of −30–75°C under two conditions of beam energy and beam current using WF6 as the precursor gas. An Arrhenius relationship was found for the temperature dependence of the deposition r…
