Abstract ZnS nanocrytsals of size ∼2.5 nm were prepared by chemical precipitation technique. Pressed pellets of nanostructured ZnS were implanted with He + ions at doses of 5 × 10 14 , 1 × 10 15 and 5 × 10 15 ions/cm 2 . Raman spectra of both unimplanted and He + ion implanted samples were recorded with ultraviolet (U…

We report here on the photo-switching dynamics of a Fe(III) molecular material undergoing a spin-crossover. The thermal spin conversion is observed by magnetic and spectroscopic measurements, as well as imaging. The photoinduced switching dynamics between the low-spin and the high-spin states is studied with a femtose…

A single crystal of superconducting ${\text{Lu}}_{2}{\text{Fe}}_{3}{\text{Si}}_{5}$ was studied using the tunnel-diode resonator technique in the Meissner and mixed states. The temperature dependence of the superfluid density provides strong evidence for two-gap superconductivity and indicates that there are nearly eq…

This paper reports the effects of gamma ray irradiation and glass composition on the optical and infrared spectra of quaternary silicate glasses. Experimental results reveal the formation of radiation-induced absorption bands in the visible region attributed to nonbridging oxygen hole centres. The band gap energy and…

We report the observation of a deformation twin formed by a recently proposed self-thickening, cross-slip twinning mechanism. This observation verifies one more twinning mechanism, in addition to those reported before, in nanocrystalline face-centered-cubic metals. In this mechanism, once the first Shockley partial is…

We show that the dynamics of supercooled liquids, analyzed from computer simulations of the binary mixture Lennard-Jones system, can be described in terms of a continuous-time random walk (CTRW). The required discretization comes from mapping the dynamics on transitions between metabasins. This yields a quantitative l…

We present the effects of ion bombardment on ZnO nanowires caused by their exposure to an Ar inductively coupled plasma. The conductivity of the individual ZnO nanowire was increased in up to 3 orders of magnitude due to increase in both carrier concentration and mobility, with a substantial negative shift in the thre…

A multiple substrate, microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition synthesis process for single crystal diamond (SCD) is demonstrated using a 915MHz reactor. Diamond synthesis was performed using input chemistries of 6–8% of CH4∕H2, microwave input powers of 10–11.5kW, substrate temperatures of 1100–1200°C, and…

Abstract Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) and FT‐Raman spectra of 4‐fluoro‐ N ‐(2‐hydroxy‐4‐nitrophenyl)benzamide were recorded and analyzed. The vibrational wavenumbers and corresponding vibrational assignments were examined theoretically using the Gaussian03 set of quantum chemistry codes. The red‐shift of the NH‐…

The elastic response for a large catalog of carbon nanotubes subjected to axial and torsional strain is derived from atomistic calculations that rely on an accurate tight-binding description of the covalent binding. The application of the computationally expensive quantum treatment is possible due to the simplificatio…

In order to reduce the difficulties in the experimental realizations of the cloak but still keep good performance of invisibility, we proposed a perfect cylindrical invisibility cloak with spatially invariant axial material parameters. The advantage of this kind of cloak is that only ρ and φ components of μ (or ε) are…

Abstract Diamond is a material with superlative properties in terms of carrier mobilities and device characteristics for high power electronics applications. Although p‐type diamond is routinely available using boron, n‐type material via impurity doping during the growth of diamond has historically been limited in suc…

The description of surface-diffusion controlled dynamics via the phase-field method is less trivial than it appears at first sight. A seemingly straightforward approach from the literature is shown to fail to produce the correct asymptotics, albeit in a subtle manner. Two models are constructed that approximate known…
