Some basic properties of nonradiating systems are considered. A simple connection is established between the existence of residual electromagnetic potentials and the current density spectrum of the system. The properties of specific configurations based on toroidal and supertoroidal currents are modeled with the finit…

We explore two possible ways to enhance the critical temperature $T_c$ in the dilute magnetic semiconductor Mn$_{0.08}$Ga$_{0.92}$As. Within the context of the double-exchange and RKKY pictures, the ternary alloys Mn$_{x}$Cr$_{0.08-x}$Ga$_{0.92}$As and Mn$_{0.08}$Ga$_{0.92}$As$_y$P$_{1-y}$ might be expected to have $T…

A finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) numerical analysis is used to demonstrate that a toroidal solenoid, coaxial with an electric dipole, is a remarkable non-radiating configuration. It can be used to measure the dielectric permittivity of any ambient matter. It becomes a directional radiator at an interface between…

The electronic and piezoelectric properties of the boron nitride (BN) nanotubes are investigated with the hybrid density functional (B3LYP) method. We first study bulk h-BN and BN sheet and find that the B3LYP band structure and energy gap are consistent with the GW results. The B3LYP band gap is larger than the LDA o…

Abstract On irradiation with UV light, the photochromic dimer of 1,4-bis(imidazolyl)tetrafluorobenzene produced the colored transient species in solution and solid. Though the dimerization reaction to form the photochromic dimer prevents the isolation and characterization of the colored species at room temperature, th…

In ferroelectric materials, hysteresis behavior is very difficult to model due to its nonlinear and history-dependent characteristics. Among approaches that are able to describe unsaturated loops, many of them are either very complicated (numerical procedures must be employed) or the resulting loops contain some undes…
