A new theoretical model for self dynamic response is developed using Vibration-Transit (V-T) theory, and is applied to liquid sodium at all wavevectors q from the hydrodynamic regime to the free particle limit. In this theory the zeroth-order Hamiltonian describes the vibrational motion in a single random valley harmo…

It is shown that dynamical screening of the Coulomb interaction in LaCuO leads to low-energy electronic collective excitations in a small region around the c-axis, strongly mixing with interlayer phonons. The manifestation of such a phonon-plasmon scenario based on a nonadiabatic charge response is quantitatively supp…

The effect of surface roughness on phonon transport in a nanowire has often been described by treating the surface as flat with a specularity parameter (p) in the range between 0 and 1. A lower thermal conductivity limit is approached at p=0 for diffuse surface. It is demonstrated here by Monte Carlo simulation that s…

We study the important n-cyanobiphenyl (with n= 4-8) series of mesogens, using modelling and molecular dynamics simulations. We are able to obtain spontaneously ordered nematics upon cooling isotropic samples of 250 molecules. By using the united-atom force field developed herein, we show that the experimental isotrop…

We study the dynamics of fermions on graphene in presence of Coulomb impurities and Aharonov-Bohm field. Special emphasis is given to the formation of hydrino like states and its lifting of degeneracy due to the presence of AB field. The flux of the AB field can be tuned to make the low angular momentum hydrino states…

We report magnetization and specific heat measurements on polycrystalline samples of BaCdVO(PO_4)_2 and show that this compound is a S=1/2 frustrated square lattice with ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor (J_1) and antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor (J_2) interactions. The coupling constants J_1\simeq -3.6 K and J_2\…

We report neutron diffuse scattering measurements on a single crystal of 68%Pb(Mg1∕3Nb2∕3)O3-32%PbTiO3. Strong diffuse scattering is observed at low temperatures. An external field applied along the [001] direction affects the diffuse scattering in the (HK0) plane significantly, suggesting a redistribution occurs betw…

We propose rectangular asymmetric double split resonators with field confining tips for use as thin-film sensors. In contrast to frequency selective surfaces, which consist of two-dimensional, periodic resonator arrays, only a single unit cell placed inside a rectangular waveguide is sufficient for sensing. Compared t…

We report on the synthesis of epitaxial (single-crystal-like), nanotwinned Cu films via magnetron sputtering. Increasing the deposition rate from 1 to 4 nm/s decreased the average twin lamellae spacing from 16 to 7 nm. These epitaxial nanotwinned Cu films exhibit significantly higher ratio of hardness to room temperat…

We have investigated the electronic structure of graphene under different planar strain distributions using the first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave method and the tight-binding approach. We found that graphene with a symmetrical strain distribution is always a zero band-gap semiconductor and its pseudogap decr…

In the present work, an ultrasoundic procedure for the extraction of phosphorus (P) available in soil is described. The proposed method is based on extraction by 0.5 M sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), following with sonication under different conditions. Phosphorus was determined by the Murphy and Riley method.
