Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with multiwalled structures were successfully grown on a Fe-deposited Si substrate at low temperatures below 300°C by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition using of a CH 4 –CO 2 gas mixture. The low temperature would be beneficial for reducing the diameter of CNTs but it…

For the paramagnetic insulating phase in the metal-ordered manganite YBaMn2O6, the so-called CE-type of charge/orbital ordered state was observed within the monoclinic ab-plane, which is most commonly observed for the ordinary half doped manganites. However, TEM revealed a 4-fold periodicity along the c-axis, suggesti…

ESR investigations were performed for a series of quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors, (TMTTF) 2 X . The ESR linewidth shows abrupt jumps or humps in the paramagnetic insulating region. The (TMTTF) 2 X salts are roughly divided into three groups according to the anisotropy of the ESR linewidth at low temperatures…

We demonstrate UV generation in CSB3O5 (CBO) crystals grown by the top-seeded solution growth technique. 355-nm UV light was generated by use of a type II CBO crystal as a sum frequency of the fundamental light and the second harmonic of a nanosecond Nd:YVO4 laser. A 3.0-W output of the third-harmonic was obtained at…

X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), and temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) were used in combination to determine the oxidation states of gold in clusters and complexes supported on MgO. The samples were also characterized by X-ray absorption fine struc…

Interactions of the CO molecule with the Cu + sites within MFI and FER matrices were investigated by means of the combined quantum mechanics/interatomic potential function method. CO molecules strongly interact with both dominant Cu + site types (on the channel wall and on the channel intersection) in high-silica zeol…

Organic alloys λ-(BETS) 2 Fe x Ga 1- x Cl 4 show superconductivity only under very high magnetic fields parallel to the conducting layer for x ≥0.47. As x decreases, the field induced superconducting phase shifts towards lower fields and a striking field-induced insulator to superconductor transition is observed below…

The electronic properties of quarter-filled organic materials showing spin-Peierls transition are investigated theoretically. By studying the one-dimensional extended Peierls-Hubbard model analytically as well as numerically, we find that there is a competition between two different spin-Peierls states due to the tetr…

The first EuS nanocrystals were prepared by the reaction of europium metal and H 2 S in liquid ammonia. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and TEM images supported the formation of nanoscaled EuS crystals with average size of 20.4 nm. The nanocrystals showed blue shift compared with previously reported EuS films. The Cu…

Oxygen nonstoichiometry of Ca 3 Co 4 O y was precisely measured by thermogravimetry. Combining the result of thermal decomposition analysis, this compound was found to be expressed as (CoO 2 ) 1.62 (Ca 2 CoO 3-δ ) with δ=0–0.14. The observed oxygen nonstoichiometry in the present system was much larger than those of o…
