Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) have been widely exploited in various scientific communities, ranging from physics, chemistry to biology, due to the strong confinement of light to the metal surface. For many applications, it is important that the free space photon can be coupled to SPPs in a controllable manner. In…

Large-scale electrolysis of water for hydrogen generation requires better catalysts to lower the kinetic barriers associated with the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Although most OER catalysts are based on crystalline mixed-metal oxides, high activities can also be achieved with amorphous phases. Methods for produci…

We investigated the structural transformations of the hexagonal phase of Ge${}_{2}$Sb${}_{2}$Te${}_{5}$ under pressure by means of ab initio molecular dynamics with a variable simulation cell. To overcome the enthalpy barriers between the different phases we used metadynamics techniques. We reproduced the hexagonal-to…

We report the measurements of active and passive viscosities of a bent-core nematic liquid crystal. The active viscosity is measured using a rheometer and the passive viscosities are measured by measuring the self-diffusion coefficient of a microsphere in the aligned sample. The effective active viscosity is larger an…

We have studied the effects of substituting nonmagnetic Ga${}^{3+}$ for Mn${}^{3+}$ on dielectric and magnetic properties in multiferroic YMn${}_{2}$O${}_{5}$. Upon Ga substitution, whereby only the Mn${}^{3+}$ ions are selectively replaced, the commensurate magnetic phase eventually disappeared owing to the disconnec…
