Low-energy transport measurements in quantum Hall systems have been argued to be governed by emergent modular symmetries whose predictions are robust against many of the detailed microscopic dynamics. We propose the recently observed quantum Hall effect in graphene as a test of these ideas, and identify to this end a…

We report the combination of top-down and bottom-up nanomanufacturing techniques to fabricate active, hierarchically structured volume reflection gratings. Holographic polymerization (H-P) formed lamellar structures of approximately 200 nm in thickness, confining a block copolymer (BCP) to approximately 100 nm domains…

Arrays of transparent dielectric nanorods are shown to produce very large local field enhancements at specific resonant conditions. These structures would lead to enhancement of molecular fluorescence signals without quenching. The resonant angular width and field enhancements are analytically derived as a function of…

We consider three-dimensional structures consisting of multiple interlocking, disconnected metal networks. We show that, in the low-frequency limit, these systems support photonic bands with linear dispersion relation. The number of such photonic bands is directly controlled by the number of networks and can be arbitr…

A new Brownian dynamics model is presented to describe the coarse grain dynamics of particles with long-lived memory. Instead of solving a set of generalized Langevin equations we introduce a set of variables describing the slowly fluctuating thermodynamic state of the ignored degrees of freedom. These variables give…

Single-phased powder BiCrO(3) sample was prepared at 6 GPa and 1653 K. Its magnetic properties were investigated by dc/ac magnetization, magnetic relaxation, and specific heat measurements. Four anomalies of magnetic origin were found near 40, 75, 109, and 111 K. The long-range antiferromagnetic order with weak ferrom…

Luminescence from single isoelectronic traps in nitrogen δ-doped gallium phosphide was studied by micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy. These single traps were found to emit photons that were nearly identical in both emission energy and brightness. Furthermore, single photon emission from a single nitrogen pair is con…
