New results are reported of the computer simulations on the magnetic behaviour of magnetic arrays of nanoscopic dots, placed in cells of the square lattice. We show that the remanence magnetization $M_r$ decreases with the array size. For arrays 50x50, we investigate also the stability of the magnetic structure of an…

Multiferroics are singular materials that can display simultaneously electric and magnetic orders. Some of them can be ferroelectric and ferromagnetic and, for example, provide the unique opportunity of encoding information independently in electric polarization and magnetization to obtain four different logic states.…

Single phase (001)-oriented BiFeO3 (BFO) thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition can only be obtained in a narrow window of deposition pressure and temperature and have a low magnetic moment. Out of the stability window Fe- or Bi-rich impurity phases form, which has a strong impact on the physical and structural p…

We report a practical implementation of high-efficiency color conversion in an electrically pumped light-emitting diode (LED) using nonradiative energy transfer. On the basis of a new LED design that offers both strong energy-transfer coupling and efficient carrier injection, we show that a hybrid structure comprising…

The phosphorescence mechanisms of various phosphors were explored by taking into consideration the presence of interactions between dopant cations and vacancies as well as the effect of co-dopant cations on these interactions. Our study indicates that the distribution of dopant and co-dopant cations around vacancies i…

Within the maximum entropy principle we present a general theory able to provide, in a dynamical context, the macroscopic relevant variables for carrier transport under electric fields of arbitrary strength. For the macroscopic variables the linearized maximum entropy approach is developed including full-band effects…

Thin films of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) have been grown on the ferroelectric 0.68Pb(Mg1∕3Nb2∕3)O3–0.32PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) single-crystal substrates. The ferroelectric polarization of the PMN-PT induces a large decrease in the resistivity and an upward shift in the Curie temperature of the LSMO films, which was interpreted in…
