Based on the model combining the spin double exchange and the lattice polaron, we have studied the colossal-magnetoresistance phenomena observed in perovskite manganites ${\mathrm{R}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{A}}_{\mathrm{x}}$${\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$. First, effects of both the double exchange and th…

The existence of β-C3N4 with hardness characteristics similar or better than diamond was predicted in 1990 by Liu and Cohen. Many studies have since been devoted to the synthesis of this compound. In the present work, carbon nitride films were deposited by various reactive magnetron sputtering processes of graphite ta…

Ligand-stabilized gold clusters may serve as model catalysts, and the packing of their gold atoms is therefore of great interest. The cluster of the stoichiometry Au 55 [P(C 6 H 5 ) 3 ] 12 Cl 6 is thought to be the smallest known defined compound in which the gold maintains a cubic dense packed metallic (ccp) state. W…
