We propose a device that can operate as a magneto-resistive switch or oscillator. The device is based on a spin-thermo-electronic control of the exchange coupling of two strong ferromagnets through a weakly ferromagnetic spacer. We show that the local Joule heating due to a high concentration of current in a magnetic…
High performance thin film transistor (TFT) with atomic layer deposition (ALD) nitrogen doped ZnO (ZnO:N) as an active layer is demonstrated. The electrical properties of ZnO thin films were effectively controlled by in situ nitrogen doping using NH4OH as a source for reactants. Especially, the electron concentration…
A movable inclusion in an elastic material oscillates as a rigid body with six degrees of freedom. Displacement/rotation and force/moment tensors which express the motion of the inclusion in terms of the displacement and force at arbitrary exterior points are introduced. Using reciprocity arguments two general identit…
We observe a strong reduction of the field induced thin film surface resistance measured at high microwave frequency (ν=47.7GHz) in YBa2Cu3O7−δ thin films grown on SrTiO3 substrates, as a consequence of the introduction of submicrometric BaZrO3 particles. The field increase of the surface resistance is smaller by a fa…
Nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond have distinct promise as solid-state qubits. This is because of their large dipole moment, convenient level structure and very long room-temperature coherence times. In general, a combination of ion irradiation and subsequent annealing is used to create the centers, however for…
A simple, reliable method for preparation of bulk Cr tips for Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) is proposed and its potentialities in performing high-quality and high-resolution STM and Spin Polarized-STM (SP-STM) are investigated. Cr tips show atomic resolution on ordered surfaces. Contrary to what happens with con…
A series of (Fe100−yGay)1−xBx (x=0–21 and y=9–17) films were deposited; their microstructure, soft magnetism, magnetostrictive behavior, and microwave properties were investigated. The addition of B changes the FeGaB films from polycrystalline to amorphous phase and leads to excellent magnetic softness with coercivity…
Abstract BACKGROUND: Electrospinning is a powerful and effective method to produce nanofibers. Beads have been observed widely in electrospun products, but effects of solvents, weight concentrations and salt additives on the number and morphology of beads in the electrospinning process have not been systematically stu…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of coating thickness on the relaxivity of iron oxide nanoparticles. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Monocrystalline superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MIONs), coated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified, phospholipid micelle coating, with different PEG molecular weights, were prepa…
We use recently introduced three-point dynamic susceptibilities to obtain an experimental determination of the temperature evolution of the number of molecules Ncorr that are dynamically correlated during the structural relaxation of supercooled liquids. We first discuss in detail the physical content of three-point f…
We describe new configurations of electromagnetic (EM) material parameters, the electric permittivity epsilon and magnetic permeability micro, which allow one to construct devices that function as invisible tunnels. These allow EM wave propagation between the regions at the two ends of a tunnel, but the tunnels themse…
Gadolinium (Gd)-based paramagnetic contrast agents are relatively safe when used in clinically recommended doses. However, with the rapidly expanding body of literature linking Gd-based paramagnetic contrast agents and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF), awareness of the potential side effects and adverse reactions f…
An apporach for the sensing of small amounts of chemical and biochemical material is presented. A frequency selective surface made from asymmetric split ring resonators is excited with free space radiation. Due to interference effects a resonance occurs with a steep flank in the frequency response which is shifted upo…

A scheme to achieve two dimensional (2D) acoustic cloaking is proposed by Cummer and Schurig [New J. Phys. 9, 45 (2007)] by mapping the acoustic equations to Maxwell’s equations of one polarization in the 2D geometry. We find that the acoustic equation can be mapped to the direct current conductivity equation in three…
Gold nanoparticles are widely used in biomedical imaging and diagnostic tests. Based on their established use in the laboratory and the chemical stability of Au(0), gold nanoparticles were expected to be safe. The recent literature, however, contains conflicting data regarding the cytotoxicity of gold nanoparticles. A…
The normally weak process of hyper-Raman scattering can be greatly enhanced when the excitation is two photon resonant with an electronic transition that is both one and two photon allowed. It might be expected to be further enhanced when a one-photon allowed transition provides an intermediate state resonance in the…
The interaction between H(2) molecules and boron nitride (BN) single-walled nanotubes with BN divacancies is investigated with density-functional theory. Our calculations reveal that H(2) molecules adsorb physically outside defective BN nanotubes, and cannot enter into BN nanotubes through bare BN divacancies because…
The grand canonical Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the adsorption isotherms of water molecules on different types of model soot particles. The soot particles are modeled by graphite-type layers arranged in an onionlike structure that contains randomly distributed hydrophilic sites, such as OH and COOH groups.…
We introduce the notion of "Janus balance" (J), defined as the dimensionless ratio of work to transfer an amphiphilic colloidal particle (a "Janus particle") from the oil-water interface into the oil phase, normalized by the work needed to move it into the water phase. The J value can be calculated simply from the int…
