Bicritical points, at which two distinct symmetry-broken phases become simultaneously unstable, are typical for spin-flop metamagnetism. Interestingly, the heavy-fermion compound YbAgGe also possesses such a bicritical point (BCP) with a low temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{BCP}}\ensuremath{\approx}0.3\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm…

Computing phase diagrams of model systems is an essential part of computational condensed matter physics. In this paper, we discuss in detail the interface pinning (IP) method for calculation of the Gibbs free energy difference between a solid and a liquid. This is done in a single equilibrium simulation by applying a…

We determine the optical properties of PbS/CdS core/shell QDs, addressing the energy and the oscillator strength of the first exciton transition and the intrinsic absorption coefficient at short wavelengths. It follows that the intrinsic absorption coefficient at wavelengths of 350 and 400 nm agrees with theoretical n…

We report that 3C-SiC wires with high stacking faults density exhibit higher permittivity in 2–18 GHz. Transmission electron microscopy suggests that the stacking faults were formed by embedding 2H-SiC segments in 3C-SiC matrix, which results in the formation of type-II 3C/2H-SiC heterostructures as both the valence-b…

It has been highly debated whether the thermal conductivity κ of a disordered SiGe alloy can be lowered by redistributing its constituent species so as to form an ordered superlattice. By ab initio calculations backed by systematic experiments, we show that Ge segregation occurring during epitaxial growth can lead to…

As a thin layer of palladium (Pd) is directly deposited on an yttrium iron garnet or YIG (Y3Fe5O12) magnetic insulator film, Pd develops both low- and high-field magneto-transport effects that are absent in standalone Pd or thick Pd on YIG. While the low-field magnetoresistance peak of Pd tracks the coercive field of…
