Series of Er-doped Si-rich silicon oxide layers were studied with the aim of optimizing the coupling between Er ions and the Si-based sensitizers. The layers were grown at substrate temperature between 400 and 600°C by the cosputtering of three confocal targets: Si, SiO2, and Er2O3. The influence of Si excess (5–15at.…

Carbosilane dendrimers can be used as soluble supports for organic synthesis, since their structure allows separation of excess reagents from the supported products, eventually yielding products of high purity and in high yield, as in solid-phase organic synthesis (SPOS). In previous studies often loss of dendritic ma…

In spin-driven ferroelectrics, often referred to as magnetoelectric (ME) multiferroics, a domain wall separates two magnetic as well as ferroelectric domains. Therefore, it is expected that the control of such an ME domain wall could result in a large ME effect. Here, we show that the direction of a slanted magnetic f…
