Standard mixtures of tetragonal and monoclinic zirconia powders have been carefully prepared in order to cover the complete weight range from 0% to 100% of monoclinic phase, and they have been analyzed by X‐ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Several equations given in the literature for determining the compositio…

Nine samples of ochre originating from the Sentier des Ocres near Roussillon, France, were studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy and Spectro-photo-colorimetry. The former yielded a quantitative phase analysis of iron containing minerals (goethite, hematite and kaolin), and the latter enabled determination of the CIE-L*a…

A series of sigma-phase Fe_{100-x}V_x samples with 34.4 < x < 59.0 were investigated by neutron and X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer spectroscopy (MS) techniques. The first two methods were used for verification of the transformation from alpha to sigma phase and they also permitted to determine lattice parameters of t…

Complex multicomponent systems based on PbTe, SnTe, and GeTe are of great interest for infrared devices and high-temperature thermoelectric applications. A deeper understanding of the atomic and electronic structure of these materials is crucial for explaining, predicting, and optimizing their properties, and to sugge…

Thermal fluctuation of the cantilever position sets a fundamental limit for the precision of any Scanning Force Microscope. In the present work we analyse how these fluctuations limit the determination of the resonance frequency of the tip-sample system. The basic principles of frequency detection in Dynamic Scanning…

We study two reciprocal thermal effects in the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As by scattering theory: domain wall motion induced by a temperature gradient as well as heat currents pumped by a moving domain wall. The effective out-of-plane thermal spin transfer torque parameter $P_Q β_{Q}$, which governs the coupl…

Heterostructured ABA thin films consisting of two different Prussian blue analogues, where A is a ferromagnet and B is a photoinducible ferrimagnet, have been fabricated for the first time. This novel arrangement allows the magnetization to be decreased by irradiation with white light and significantly increases the o…

We report direct observation of controlled and reversible switching of magnetic domains using static (dc) electric fields applied in situ during Lorentz microscopy. The switching is realized through electromechanical coupling in thin film Fe(0.7)Ga(0.3)/BaTiO(3) bilayer structures mechanically released from the growth…

The electromagnetic (EM) enhancement in surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) is quantitatively evaluated for rhodamine molecules adsorbed on Ag nanostructures. Polarization dependence of the plasma resonance (plasmon resonance) and the SERRS spectra from single isolated Ag nanostructures was evaluated t…

Point-contact spectroscopy was originally developed for the determination of the electron–phonon spectral function in normal metals. However, in the past 20 years it has become an important tool in the investigation of superconductors. As a matter of fact, point contacts between a normal metal and a superconductor can…

We investigate electron and phonon transport through edge-disordered zigzag graphene nanoribbons based on the same methodological tool of nonequilibrium Green functions. We show that edge disorder dramatically reduces phonon thermal transport while being only weakly detrimental to electronic conduction. The behavior o…

Abstract Ceria is a crucial component of automotive catalysts, where its ability to be reduced and re‐oxidized provides oxygen storage capacity. Because of these redox properties, ceria can greatly enhance catalytic activities for a number of important reactions when it is used as a support for transition metals. For…

In this work, the shear viscosity at ambient conditions of several water models (SPC/E, TIP4P, TIP5P, and TIP4P/2005) is evaluated using the Green-Kubo formalism. The performance of TIP4P/2005 is excellent, that of SPC/E and TIP5P is more or less acceptable, whereas TIP4P and especially TIP3P give a poor agreement wit…
