The recent discovery of iron ferropnictide superconductors has received intensive concern in connection with magnetically involved superconductors. Prominent features of ferropnictide superconductors are becoming apparent: the parent compounds exhibit an antiferromagnetic ordered spin density wave (SDW) state, the mag…
We present a route for direct growth of boron nitride via a polyborazylene to h-BN conversion process. This two-step growth process ultimately leads to a >25x reduction in the RMS surface roughness of h-BN films when compared to a high temperature growth on Al2O3(0001) and Si(111) substrates. Additionally, the stoichi…
The modification of single layer graphene due to intense, picoseconds near-infrared laser pulses is investigated. We monitor the stable changes introduced to graphene upon photoexcitation using Raman spectroscopy. We find that photoexcitation leads to both a local increase in hole doping and a reduction in compressive…
We construct a phase diagram of the parent compound Fe${}_{1+x}$Te as a function of interstitial iron $x$ in terms of the electronic, structural, and magnetic properties. For a concentration of $x<10%$, Fe${}_{1+x}$Te undergoes a ``semimetal'' to metal transition at approximately 70 K that is also first-order and coin…
The inverse magnetocaloric effect taking place at the antiferro-to-ferromagnetic transition of (Co,Fe)MnP phosphides has been characterised by magnetic and direct ΔTad measurements. In Co0.53Fe0.47MnP, entropy change of 1.5 Jkg−1 K−1 and adiabatic temperature change of 0.6 K are found at room temperature for an interm…
The superconductor Sn${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$In${}_{x}$Te is a doped topological crystalline insulator and has become important as a candidate topological superconductor, but its superconducting phase diagram is poorly understood. By measuring about 50 samples of high-quality, vapor-grown single crystals, we found that…
The electronic properties of macromolecular semiconductor thin films depend profoundly on their solid-state microstructure, which in turn is governed, among other things, by the processing conditions selected and the polymer's chemical nature and molecular weight. Specifically, low-molecular-weight materials form crys…
The last twenty years have witnessed increasing research activity in the area of supramolecular chemistry of 1 : 1 co-assembly of melamine (M)–cyanuric acid (CA), since the historic discovery of the M·CA aggregate in crystal form and its structural analysis by Wang and his coworkers in 1990. Its useful chemical struct…
We present a micromagnetic analysis of spin-wave propagation in a magnonic crystal realized as a permalloy spin-wave waveguide with a spatial periodical variation of its saturation magnetization. Frequency band gaps were clearly observed in the spin-wave transmission spectra, and their origin is traced back to an over…
The magnetization curves of densely packed single domain magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are investigated by Monte Carlo simulations in the framework of an effective one spin model. The particles whose size polydispersity is taken into account are arranged in spherical clusters, and both dipole dipole interactions (DDI)…
The antibacterial properties of nanosilver have led to a versatile application spectrum including medical purposes and personal care products. However, the increasing use of nanosilver has raised concerns about its environmental impacts. Long-term exposure studies with aquatic invertebrates are essential to assess pos…
Based on generalized Snell's law, we propose an ultrathin directional carpet cloak operating in the reflection geometry. The cloak is constructed by two identical ultrathin metal-backed dielectric slabs with metallic “H” patterns on the other sides to form a triangular region. When put on an infinite ground plane and…
Luminescent lanthanide labels (LLLs) and semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are two very special classes of (at least partially) inorganic fluorophores, which provide unique properties for Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET). FRET is an energy-transfer process between an excited donor fluorophore and a ground-state…
A series of flame‐retardant rigid polyurethane foams (RPUFs) containing dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) and expandable graphite (EG) were prepared by box‐foaming. The RPUFs were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), the limiting oxygen index (LOI), cone calorimeter, and scanning electron microscope (SEM…
The strain effects on the spin-orbit-induced splitting of the valence-band maximum and conduction-band minimum in monolayer MoS${}_{2}$ and the gap in graphene are calculated using first-principles calculations. The dependence of these splittings on the various symmetry types of the strain is described by means of an…
We study the initial interaction of adsorbed H 2 O with P-rich and Ga-rich GaP(100) surfaces. Atomically well defined surfaces are prepared by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy and transferred contamination-free to ultra-high vacuum, where water is adsorbed at room temperature. Finally, the surfaces are annealed in v…
We calculate tractable microscopic expressions for the low-shear normal-stress coefficients of colloidal dispersions. Although restricted to the low rate regime, the presented formulas are valid for all volume fractions below the glass transition and for any interaction potential. Numerical results are presented for a…
The electron-hole pair created via photon absorption in organic photoconversion systems must overcome the Coulomb attraction to achieve long-range charge separation. We show that this process is facilitated through the formation of excited, delocalized band states. In our experiments on organic photovoltaic cells, the…
Abstract Rock‐salt chalcogenide SnTe represents the simplest realization of a topological insulator where a crystal symmetry allows for the appearance of surface metallic states. Here, we theoretically predict that strain, as realized in thin films grown on (001) substrates, may induce a transition to a topological cr…
In thin-film ferroelectric (FE) capacitors the chemical and electronic structure of the electrode/FE interface can play a crucial role in determining the kinetics of polarization switching. We investigate the electronic structure of a Pt/BaTiO${}_{3}$/SrTiO${}_{3}$:Nb capacitor using time-resolved photoemission spectr…
