The efficiency of the transmission of surface plasmon waves by use of a dielectric diffraction grating is discussed. The Kretschmann device allows us to obtain a surface plasmon resonance that consists of an absorption peak in the reflection spectrum. When surface plasmon resonance occurs, the TM-polarization mode of…

New data on the specific heat, thermal expansion, and magnetization of the CaMn7O12 phase require a revision of the current concepts of the sequence of phase transitions in this compound. It is found that a spin-glass phase transition occurs in CaMn7O12 at T M = 49 K, whereas the transition at T S = 89 K exhibits the…

The phases and magnetic properties of Co-Zr-C melt-spun ribbon were studied. The Co/sub 80/Zr/sub 20/ melt-spun ribbon consisted of a metastable Co/sub 5/Zr phase together with fcc-Co and Co/sub 23/Zr/sub 6/ phases and showed a high coercivity. The small substitution of C for Zr in the Co-Zr melt-spun ribbon resulted…

Garnet from an aposkarn achtarandite-bearing rodingite-like rock in Sakha-Yakutia, Russia, has a Sc content close to 6 wt% Sc 2 O 3 (~0.45 apfu). The scandian garnet is a relict mineral from a hightemperature, shallow-level melilite skarn. Structural and electron microprobe data for a crystal of the scandian garnet wi…

The structural and optical properties of porous GaP have been studied by scanning electron microscopy, spectroscopic ellipsometry, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Porous GaP layers were fabricated by anodic etching in HF:H2O:C2H5OH=1:1:2 electrolyte on n-type (100) and (111)A substrates. The morphology of the…

Magnetoelastic thin films are applied in remote interrogatable high-frequency devices. Integrated LC circuits operating at a frequency of 350 MHz are demonstrated. Due to the incorporation of the magnetic thin films, their inductance is sensitive to the applied external stress. A demonstrator was built, allowing a vis…

The recently discovered giant dielectric CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 (CCTO) has been reported to show dielectric constant value as high as 80,000 for single crystals and around 10,000 for ceramics. However the dielectric constant is also associated with high dissipation factor. In the present study, it has been observed that the…

We have determined the crystal structures of three homologous proteins from the pathogenic protozoans Leishmania donovani, Leishmania major, and Trypanosoma cruzi. We propose that these proteins represent a new subfamily within the isochorismatase superfamily (CDD classification cd004310). Their overall fold and key a…

Polarization reversals in ferroelectrics in the presence of 90° domain walls are studied using a simplified model. The rotation of a single polarization under the field applied perpendicularly to the original orientation correlates to the anisotropy of local potential energy. The polarization reversals in a ferroelect…
