YBCO films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition from nanocrystalline targets doped with different concentrations of BaZrO 3 ranging from c = 0.9 to 9.0 wt%. The critical temperature of the films decreases almost linearly with increasing BaZrO 3 content whereas the critical current density shows a maximum near 3.9…
(Mn, N)-codoped ZnO films were grown on fused silica substrates by reactive magnetron cosputtering. X-ray diffraction measurements reveal that the films have the single-phase wurtzite structure with c-axis preferred orientation. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies indicate the incorporation of both divalent Mn2+…
We have found experimentally and theoretically that laminated composites comprising one layer of length-magnetized Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.92 (Terfenol-D) magnetostrictive alloy sandwiched between two layers of thickness-polarized, electro-parallel-connected 0.7Pb(Mg1∕3Nb2∕3)O3–0.3PbTiO3 (PMN–PT) piezoelectric single crystal ha…
Inspired by the self-cleaning behaviour of lotus leaves in nature, we developed a simple coating method that can facilitate the bionic creation of super-hydrophobic surfaces on various substrates, thus providing a feasible way of fabricating super-hydrophobic surfaces for civil and industrial applications. Micro–nanos…
Metamaterial structures are artificial materials that show unconventional electromagnetic properties such as photonic band-gap, extraordinary optical transmission and left-handed propagation. Up to now, relations of photonic crystals and negative refraction have been shown as well as of photonic crystals and sub-wavel…
The effect of spatial dispersion on the electromagnetic properties of a metamaterial consisting of a three-dimensional mesh of crossing metallic wires is reported. The effective dielectric permittivity tensor epsilon(ij)(omega, k) of the wire mesh is calculated in the limit of small wavenumbers. The procedure for extr…
In the present Rapid Communication we present an analytical and numerical solution of the self-consistent mode-coupling equations for the problem of heat conductivity in one-dimensional systems. Such a solution leads us to propose a different scenario to accommodate the known results obtained so far for this problem.…
We present a thorough dielectric investigation of the hexagonal perovskites La1.2Sr2.7IrO7.33 and La1.2Sr2.7RuO7.33 in a broad frequency and temperature range, supplemented by additional infrared measurements. The occurrence of giant dielectric constants up to 10^5 is revealed to be due to electrode polarization. Asid…
The motion of a single Brownian probe particle subjected to a constant external body force and immersed in a dispersion of colloidal particles is studied with a view to providing a simple model for particle tracking microrheology experiments in the active and nonlinear regime. The non-equilibrium configuration of part…
Abstract Polyaniline (PAni) mesostructures have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The mesostructures show different forms—fibers, dendrite fibers, textured plates, featureless plates, and spheres. The obtained morphologies are more sensitive to the concentration of the doping acid, HCl, than the reaction…
This paper reports the synthesis of semiconductor nanocrystals of PbS through a facile and inexpensive synthetic route between lead acetate [Pb(Ac) 2 ·3H 2 O] and dithioglycol (HSCH 2 CH 2 SH) without any surfactant. The products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), hi…
Half-metallic ferrimagnetism is crucial for spintronic applications with respect to ferromagnets due to the lower stray fields created by these materials. Studying the effect of defects in CrAs and related transition-metal chalcogenides and pnictides crystallizing in the zinc-blende structure, we reveal that the exces…
Cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy has been employed to study the electronic and optical properties of well-aligned ZnO nanorods with diameters ranging from 50to180nm. Single-nanorod CL studies reveal that the emission peak moves toward higher energy as the diameter of the ZnO nanorod decreases, despite that their…
We have investigated the properties of Zn1−xMnxO (x=0.01–0.1) thin films grown on c-plane sapphire single crystals by pulsed laser deposition. The electrical, magnetic, optical, and microstructural properties of these thin films have been characterized systematically, with a primary focus on establishing a correlation…
Nanocrystalline Ce1−xRExO2−y (RE=La and Nd) powders were synthesized with a controlled size in the range of 3–5nm using microemulsion technique. The nanoceria retains its cubic fluorite structures for the complete doping range. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopic studies showed that the lattice distortion increa…
The dielectric properties of MnFe2O4 and γ-Fe2O3 magnetic nanoparticles embedded in insulating matrices were investigated. The samples showed frequency dependent dielectric anomalies coincident with the magnetic blocking temperature and significant magnetocapacitance above this blocking temperature, as large as 0.4% a…
The self-organized dopant percolative filamentary model, entirely orbital in character (no spins), is strongly influenced by background (in)homogeneities. In the high temperature superconductive (HTSC) cuprates, pseudogap regions produce novel percolative features in phase diagrams. The model is especially successful…
Silica skeletal architectures in diatoms are characterized by remarkable morphological and nanostructural details. Silk proteins from spiders and silkworms form strong and intricate self-assembling fibrous biomaterials in nature. We combined the features of silk with biosilica through the design, synthesis, and charac…
We study the effects of long and short-range electron-electron interactions in a graphene bilayer. Using a variational wave function technique we show that in the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions the clean bilayer is always unstable to electron and hole pocket formation with a finite ferromagnetic polarizat…
Polycrystalline Mn-doped, Nb-doped, and pure BiFeO3 (BFO) films were fabricated via chemical solution deposition (CSD) method. Influence of Mn and Nb dopants on electric properties of BFO films were studied. The current density versus electric field (J-E) characteristics indicated that conduction mechanisms of Mn-dope…
