Helium has a decisive effect on the microstructure of silicon carbide materials after implantation and subsequent annealing. A dense population of bubbles and dislocation loops is already observed at relatively low displacement doses after annealing of helium-implanted \ensuremath{\alpha}-SiC, while no visible damage…

Zero-field 57 Fe NMR spectrum has been observed in the 57 Fe-enriched ceramics of BiFeO 3 . The analysis of NMR lineshape confirms the existence in this ferroelectric-antiferromagnetic compound of a long-period cycloidal magnetic structure and enables the first reconstruction of the actual spatial spin distribution al…

We report the dielectric anomaries at the phase transitions of Lu(Fe 2+ Fe 3+ )O 4 , which is considered as a charge and spin frustrated system. Dielectric constant shows a hump, just above the transition from the high temperature two-dimensional to the low temperature three-dimensional charge ordering. A few glassy b…

The surface-enhanced resonant Raman-scattering (SERRS) spectra of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT's) adsorbed on silver and gold metal island films and on colloidal silver cluster substrates were investigated using different laser excitation wavelengths. The observed enhancement in the SERRS signal of the SWNT's…

We have studied electric-field-induced Raman scattering in SrTiO3 thin films using an indium-tin-oxide/SrTiO3/SrRuO3 structure grown by pulsed laser deposition. The soft mode polarized along the field becomes Raman active. Experimental data for electric-field-induced hardening of the soft modes and the tuning of the s…

We investigated the hydrostatic and shear strain components introduced in the graphite hexagons by applying hydrostatic pressure to single-walled carbon nanotubes. The vibrational modes are expected to show different pressure derivatives depending on the polarization of the eigenvector with respect to the nanotube axi…

The structure and electronic properties of 1-ML Au supported on ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}(110)$ have been theoretically investigated using the full potential linearized augmented plane-wave method. Based on total-energy and atomic-force calculations, the preferential adsorption site for the Au adatom is predicted to be the…

Specific peaks of the Raman spectrum of single-wall nanotubes shift significantly upon immersion of the tubes in a liquid, relative to the corresponding peaks in air. This observation means that nanotubes are sensitive to molecular forces, and is interpreted by relating the corresponding molecular strain to a thermody…

Extended π-conjugated systems and tunable optic properties are characteristic for compounds with linear backbones based on electron-donating thiophene, electron-accepting pyridine, and a σ3,λ3-phosphole core. The oligomers 1 and 2 are fluorescent chromophores and, for 2, these properties are tunable through chemical m…

The Landau-Zener method allows to measure very small tunnel splittings Δ in molecular clusters Fe 8 . The observed oscillations of Δ as a function of the magnetic field applied along the hard anisotropy axis are explained in terms of topological quantum interference of two tunnel paths of opposite windings.
