We study static and dynamical properties that distinguish 2D crystals constrained to lie on a curved substrate from their flat-space counterparts. A generic mechanism of dislocation unbinding in the presence of varying Gaussian curvature is presented in the context of a model surface amenable to full analytical treatm…
The electronic properties of one-dimensional clusters of N atoms or molecules have been studied. The model used is similar to the Kronig-Penney model with the potential offered by each ion being approximated by an attractive delta function. The energy eigenvalues, the eigenstates and the density of states are calculat…
Abstract The ligand Hhfth [4,4,5,5,6,6,6‐heptafluoro‐1‐(2‐thienyl)hexane‐1,3‐dione], which contains a heptafluoropropyl group, has been used to synthesize several new ternary lanthanide complexes (Ln = Er, Ho, Yb, Nd) in which the synergistic ligand is 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) or 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy). The two seri…
First-principles calculations based on spin density functional theory are performed to study the spin-resolved electronic properties of GaN doped with 6.25% of Cu. The Cu dopants are found spin polarized and the calculated band structures suggest a 100% polarization of the conduction carriers. The Cu-doped GaN favors…
The effective linear coupling coefficient and the total spin-splitting are calculated in Ga- and N- face InGaN quantum wells. Alloy content, geometry, and gate voltage affect an internal field and an electron density distribution in the growth direction that has direct effect on a spin-splitting. The sign of structura…
In this paper, we report on the photoelectronic properties of TPD studied in sandwich geometry. In particular, we have obtained from both forward and reverse bias measurements the "mew-tau" product for holes in TPD. "mew" is the hole mobility and "tau" the carrier trapping time. The "mew-tau" product is a measure of t…
Conventional wisdom presumes that low-coordinated crystal ground states require directional interactions. Using our recently introduced optimization procedure to achieve self-assembly of targeted structures [M. C. Rechtsman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 228301 (2005); Phys. Rev. E 73, 011406 (2006)], we present an isotropic p…
An alternated 1:1 chain compound of a Mn(III) salen derivative and the TCNQ monoradical was synthesized: [Mn(5-TMAMsaltmen)(TCNQ)](ClO(4))(2) (1) (TCNQ=tetracyano-p-quinodimethane; 5-TMAMsaltmen=N,N'-(1,1,2,2-tetramethylethylene) bis(5-trimethylammoniomethylsalicylideneiminato)). Compound 1 has a zigzag chain structur…
A varied bouquet: Crystalline nanoflowers (see picture) of compounds with different chemical and physical properties, for example, In2O3, ZnO, CoO, MnO, and ZnSe, are grown by a new approach, limited ligand protection (LLP). LLP destabilizes the primary nanoparticles and promotes their three-dimensionally oriented att…
Spin and orbital magnetic moments of rhenium in AA′FeReO6 double perovskites (A,A′=Ba, Sr, and Ca) have been directly probed employing x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at the Re L2,3 edges. A considerable orbital magnetic moment is observed in all the compounds studied, which confirm theoretical predictions of unquen…
By means of magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements, x-ray and unpolarized neutron diffraction investigations on powder and single-crystal samples, simultaneous long-range antiferromagnetic Fe and Nd ordering in NdFe 3 ( 11 BO 3 ) 4 with R 32 chemical structure has been found at temperatures below T N =…
We study a model for corrosion and passivation of a metallic surface after small damage of its protective layer. The crossover from an initial regime of slow corrosion rate (pit nucleation) to a regime of rapid corrosion (propagation of the pit) takes place at the incubation time. The model is defined in a lattice who…
We have demonstrated experimentally the manipulation of exciton and nuclear spins in a single self-assembled In$_{0.75}$Al$_{0.25}$As/Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$As quantum dot. The oscillation of exciton and nuclear spin polarizations were clearly observed. The switching of the emissions in Zeeman split pair indicates that t…
The stability, electronic and magnetic properties of Fe atoms adsorbed on the self-assembled Bi-dimer lines nanostructure on the H/Si(001) surface are addressed by spin-density functional calculations. Our results show that Fe adatoms are much more stable on sites closer to the Bi nanolines being able to form one-dime…
Soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements at the Co L2,3 edges of Co-doped rutile TiO2 at room temperature revealed clear multiplet features characteristic of ferromagnetic Co2+ ions coordinated by O2− ions, being in sharp contrast to the featureless XMCD spectrum of Co metal or metallic clusters. The…
We investigate experimentally and theoretically the coalescence dynamics of two spreading droplets on a highly wettable substrate. Upon contact, surface tension drives a rapid motion perpendicular to the line of centers that joins the drops and lowers the total surface area. We find that the width of the growing menis…
For 0.95(Na0.5K0.5)NbO3–0.05BaTiO3 (0.95NKN-0.05BT) ceramics sintered at 1040–1075°C, abnormal grain growth occurred but the grain size decreased when the sintering temperature exceeded 1075°C. The dielectric constant (ϵ3T∕ϵ3), electromechanical coupling factor (kp), and piezoelectric constant (d33) were considerably…
The compound CsH2PO4 has emerged as a viable electrolyte for intermediate temperature (200-300 degrees C) fuel cells. In order to settle the question of the high temperature behavior of this material, conductivity measurements were performed by two-point AC impedance spectroscopy under humidified conditions (p[H2O] =…
The mechanical properties of nanoporous Au have been investigated by uniaxial compression. Micron-sized columns were machined in the surface of nanoporous Au using a focused Ga+ beam and compressed with a flat punch in a nanoindenter. Using scaling laws for foams, the yield strength of the 15nm diameter ligaments is e…
Protein Quaternary Structures (PQS) represent assemblies of protein chains, which are stable in a particular environment. Biological function of many proteins is closely associated with the ability to aggregation or changing the oligomeric state in general. Therefore, PQS are often viewed as Biological Units. Knowing…
